Asus TUF F15 keeps randomly crashing after upgrading RAM I purchased an ASUS TUF F15 with an upgraded set up from Best Buy a few months back (see links for specs below). At the same time, I also bought two Vengeance sodimm DDR5 RAM (4800 MHz). The laptop was working fine up until I upgraded the ram last weekend. Now, it works fine for the most part but crashes at random (varies from 1 to 5 times per day) and I can't determine why. Any insights?

Con The Cons: Real-World Issues
My Asus A18 sometimes reboots spontaneously. I have a brand new Asus Tuf A18 2025, and it occasionally reboots spontaneously. I'm about to return it under warranty. It reboots without the screen of death; the screen simply goes blank and then comes back on. This most often happens when I launch a game. I've tried reinstalling the drivers, Windows, and updating the BIOS. Nothing has helped. Please help, I'd be very grateful. Asus A18 Asus Tuf A18 2025 My Asus A18 sometimes reboots spontaneously.
