Taking out the 8GB stick or RAM did not help. Game's still lagging, then computer "crashes" and reboots itself... Not sure what else to do. Waiting on a new PSU to see if that's the issue (and yes, I separated the RAM correctly for system after removing older stick).

when you removed it, make sure to reset the CMOS, enter the BIOS and configure everything to Optimized Defaults

Not sure about the procedure on MSI Click Bios 5. Is this a manual action?
I removed the battery from the MOBO to reset it, and I checked everything in BIOS was set to default. Tried again but still no improvement. Hopefully it's the PSU issue and the replacement will solve it.

I can tentatively say the problem has been fixed. The new PSU is great! I used two cables this time. Instead of connecting the 8-pin PSU to two 8-pin GPUs, I connected them directly with two cables, 8 pin to 8 pin. Not sure if this helped, but it seems the issue is resolved. I’ll try playing for a while and then share my thoughts.
