So this is hard to explain ill do my best.
It all started when I built my computer, it was fine working and after a few months it started to crash. Crashes involved colors like green, white, e.t.c, it also sometimes just restarted. Most crashes occur during games. I started to speculate and search and tried switching out the graphics card, but it still crashed, after a month or so, so I knew it wasn't the graphics card, at least. So I thought I had a virus or something so I replaced the Hard drive. Instead I got a Solid State Drive, and installed windows 7, instead of windows 10. The crashing stopped for a while again but came back. So I crossed out driver, and decided to see if it was the Memory.
I used mem test 80-something, and half way through the test it crashed, and every since I did that test crashing became more often. So I switched the ram, accidentally breaking the tab that keeps it in place, searched it up and it says it can't really be fixed but shouldn't do any real harm. When I went to go turn it on the monitor/display didn't show but the computer turned on. I tried again today and the display turns on but gets cut out and crashes. On the motherboard there is a LED light that turns on if there is something wrong with the ram and yes it does turn on. Well that's the vague story, I want an opinion of what is wrong. Ill list the specs of the computer below.
Specs
Processor: Amd 8 core black edition FX series
Motherboard: 970 pro gaming aura
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1050ti
RAM: Kingston Fury HyperX 16 gb DDR3 1866MHz
Power Supply: TX650w Corsair
SSD: Samsung 500gb
That's really it besides its a desktop and runs windows 7 and Driver is up to date.
