When was the last time you updated your graphics card drivers? If not recent, give that a try.
Could also be RAM, have you run tests on that yet? Last tone I had games crashing it turned out I had a bad stick.
My drivers are updated, and I changed the RAM not so long ago (less than 6 months).
Sorry to hear the troubles you're facing with RAM, but I'm glad to see you know what it is!
To stress-test your gpu you can use Furmark. https://www.techpowerup.com/download/furmark/
Simply download it, install and launch it and crank the settings up nice and high.
Leave it run for an hour orso, and if Furmark crashes then your gpu is probably toast.
So the games are just closing? No blue/black screen, no system crashes? Did you scan your SSD for smart errors? I would try rolling back to a different Graphics driver. I assume you are on Windows?

- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
