System error detected, computer malfunctioning
Your PC has been experiencing crashes during game launches, especially after playing for about 20 minutes. The software reported a memory error, and the memory test revealed many issues. After installing new RAM two months ago, the same speed and type, you're still facing random crashes. It seems the problem might not be with the RAM itself but could involve other factors like overheating, driver issues, or background processes. Consider checking for overheating, updating drivers, or running a full system scan to rule out malware or software conflicts.
The term refers to swapping or adding RAM sticks, not changing the quantity from 2 to 4.
I assembled the system a year ago with two 8GB drives... and roughly two months back I added another pair of 16GB sticks, making it two sets of 8GB and two sets of 16GB DDR5.
It's sufficient with 32GB, likely enough. Running just two sticks would work. Test it! Sell the remaining two. If you're keen on four, consider lowering frequency or adjusting timing.
