PC won't work properly unless I restart multiple times.

I recently built my own PC. It booted first try, and was working very well. Unfortunately, I have begun to have problems.
When I boot up and log in, I try to load up discord to talk with friends, and it just gets stuck on an endless loop of "starting" or connecting". Restarting the application and closing all tasks in the task manager doesn't do anything. Google loads, and if I try to watch a video, it says something like playback has failed, if the problem persists, you may need to restart your device.

So I do, but it doesn't always work first try. Sometimes it takes another 3 tries until it works, and sometimes if it does, discord freezes when it says "authenticating" whilst I try to join a call.

What the hell is wrong with my PC? How can I fix it?

Thanks for reading.
 
Solution
I'd start with putting memtest86 on a spare USB key, boot that, letting it run for several hours (5+) and see if you get errors. If you get any, then you have a memory stability or defective DIMM issue.
