Hello, I am noticing random freezes when playing video games.
I thought it was my GPU at first so I went from an rx-580 to a RTX 4080 noticed less fps even..
Then I thought maybe it was lack of ram and installed 2 8GB 3200mhz sticks to make a total of 32gbs. Sadly they are not the same but all 4 are reading on task manager.

Im not sure of the culprit. I dont have any freezing issues while on google or anything of the sorts and I am not seeing any overheating issues.

Please help ;(

Mixing RAM sticks is never advised, even if they are the same named separate kits, they're never guaranteed to work together. Can you list the rest of your specs, cpu, motherboard, make and model of your psu? Could you also run https://www.userbenchmark.com/ and post a link to your results, just to see if anything obvious pops up.
I was having the same issues before mixing ram

Ryzen 7 2700x
RTX 4060
I believe B450-F Gaming
1000W EVGA PSU

Update the bios and chipset driver.
Move the OS and apps onto a ssd.
For testing purpose use just a matched pair of ram sticks in the proper slots.

Run ubm like this.
Reboot.
Wait a few mins.
Run ubm with the browser closed.
Post a link to the results.

3 Concerns.

1 I have never updated my BIOS,
2. I am unable to update my chipset gives me errors. Even with security disabled says it cannot find the file i just downloaded.
3 Whats UBM? Edit userbenchmark
