i built a pc not too long ago, it was working fine until yesterday. My pc would restart when i try to play games or open a bunch of apps. ive tested everything, psu,mobo,gpu etc... ive done some research and im pretty sure that its my ram thats causing the problem.....

i have single hyperx fury 8Gb 2666mhz ddr4
msi b450 tamahawk max

now what i wanna ask is, should i just buy another stick of the same ram? bcoz maybe doing dual channel will fix the problem or should i just buy a new set of ram??
this ram https://www.amazon.com/Team-T-Force...=1582621372&sprefix=teamgroup+,aps,443&sr=8-3

thanks in advance!

Not a best idea to mix and match RAM, get a kit of 2 for best results.
Next best choice is to get identical stick you already have.
