          maybe you should remove one of the sticks of ram, see if that stops the issues then you know which stick is causing the issue

              I am not joking, you should have either 2 or 4 sticks of ram, probably 2. The computer will still run even with half the ram. You could see if the catastrophic issues go away if you remove some of the ram. It will probably be slower though.

              Otherwise, right now ram is pretty cheap. You can get some decent ram for about 50 bucks

                sounds like the easy solution. First i should check if im still having problems though lol

                  Also how old is your cpu and what is it? Tbh it quitting when you're using your video editor and it overheating makes it sound like a CPU problem, not a ram problem. If it's relatively new, you could probably put a cooler on it and call it a day
