Im having problems with my pc. All games that i want to play are unsable.

... well sometimes

What happens is that sometimes my system is just unstable. im getting error bellow quite randomly, sometimes it happens right after i get from the game main menu into the actual game,

sometimes i can play for 5 minutes untile the crash happens.

But whats weird is that i "know" how to fix it. I just have to keep restarting pc until finally for some reason these errors stop occuring and i can play several hours without any problems.

Then i shut down the pc and the next day all my problems are back.

The errors:

Stellaris

Samsung SSD 870 EVO 1TB
Seagate HDD 1tb

I never overclocked anything

Analytics/tests that i did run
Memtest
checkdisk
sfc scan

no problemes were found.

Games that i run:
- Elden Ring, Stellaris, Minecraft, Dota2

all are unstable

What i tried:
- Installed OS to HDD, moved all application to HDD as well
- I have 4 ramsticks, i tried them one by one
- I borrowed GPU 1600 GTX, and amd CPU (it was ryzen as well, but dont remember which one it was anymore)
- tried switching mobo
- Switched to linux, tried proprietary and opensource nvidia drivers
- Reinstalled drivers
- on windows turning down data execution protection

None of this worked.
The only part that i did not tried to replace is psu, but to me its not understandable how psu could cause memory related errors.

I downloaded OCCT and ran test that put gpu and cpu into 100% load - according to its measurements cpu and gpu together draw around 190W, i let it run for 30 mins, my system was stable during this test

With both rams kits placed side by side, can you see if they have different PCB revisions?

What BIOS version are you on for your motherboard at this moment of time?

tried switching mobo
Did you switch with the same make and model motherboard?

Corsair rm 550x
How old is the PSU in your build?

im not sure what is pcb revision, but theres a sticker on all ram sticks that happens to have version number.
