Series of events:

3) Get a few GPU crashes, where both screens flashed black and caused graphical glitches.

4) Reseat GPU, along with RAM again beacuse why not

5) After a long day of gaming and homework, I' have JDownloader (relevant) downloading stuff and I'm watching random youtube videos. As I go to press play on a video, I am greeted with

6) Downloaded windows updates, hoping it was drivers. After I shut off the PC for the neat, I reseat my RAM again and go to sleep.

7) Next day, One GPU Crash while streaming an RPGMaker game (yeah)

8) Next day (last night), after another long day of gaming and homework, as I'm watching videos and closing things up, I go to click a video in Discord. As I click it, I am greeted with another

List anything you've done in attempt to diagnose or fix the problem.

Included above

Additional Details:

It's strange to me that I haven't crashed once while doing high load programs, sometimes several at once, such as playing Genshin Impact + watching various youtube videos with several tabs and windows open, discord, etc, but instead my crashes seem to happen when I'm not donig much of anything intensive.

These are fairly new RAM sticks, bought around the 14th of last month, in the same package, non-refurbished, and they haven't given me a single problem until I went to clean my CPU heatsink.

If there's more information that cuold be used, I will gladly try my best to supply!

I'm currently getting ready to try to run MemTest86, but I don't know why, my gut really makes me feel/hope that it's not a fault RAM stick (I also lack an external harddrive to properly backup my date, but y'know)

Any help will be appreciated!
