Your don't need software. With Win 10 theres an inbuilt option

Windows Memory Diagnostics runs a test sim through all parts of your RAM. If theres a certain section of the RAM that causes a crash that is only used and causes the crash irregularly, this will find it, it just takes some time so plan for an evening or overnight for a thorough test.

But tennis is right, bad ram causes massively different types of symptoms, so it's best to start there for many things.
I just played last night (usually just play on the weekend). After the Hotfix this week, my game crashed 4 times in 5 hours and my PC froze once (had to hold the power button in for a hard shut down. My brother crashed 3 or 4 times. We were both playing without issue for 4+ weeks prior to this.
