Hey so my pc spec is: MSI GeForce GTX 1070 DirectX 12 GTX 1070 ARMOR 8G OC 8GB 256-Bit GDDR5 and my cpu is i5-6400 with a 8gb ddr4 gb ram.
So when i play Games such as gtv5 and other games it keeps freezing after 1 minute or 5 minute so i was looking at my task manager and before i load up any game my pc is already using 60% of the ram and leaving my pc with 2gb of ram left so i was wondering if the problem was that my ram isnt enough and thats why it keeps freezing please let me know if i should upgrade to 16gb or not.
 
Using 2 different video cards may the problem. When SLI was the new thing video cards were bought in pairs in the same lot number. If you didn't buy 2 when you started, you were going to if you wanted a stable machine. Even if you bought the identical card from same manufacturer at a later date, it caused crashes.
 
I updated the all drivers my bios but still having the problem and it is freezing an image for less than a second or sometimes more and its only one gpu inside
I updated my pre-build gaming pc a new power supply and just gpu the power supply was PowerSpec 650 Watt 80 Plus Gold ATX Semi-Modular Power Supply
and gpu GeForce GTX 1070 DirectX 12 GTX 1070 ARMOR 8G OC 8GB 256-Bit GDDR5. My pc spec:http://psref.lenovo.com/syspool/Sys/PDF/Lenovo%20Desktops/ideacentre%20Y700/ideacentre_Y700_Platform_Specifications-win502.pdf

P.S. Why does my cpu make a buzzing sound for some reason it never did that before after i made this changing started happening.
