Yeah but it’s a hardware issue that’s beyond my caring to try and troubleshoot. Random blue screens, memtest86 shows an error always at the same address no matter which sodimms I put or swap them around. I guess it runs until software enters that address range and blam! I think it might be power supply related at the board level, not the power brick. I don’t feel like changing capacitors at random, for all I know there might be voltage out of spec because a resistor value drifted.

If the memory error is in a small address range and you are willing to get super nerdy, you can tell the linux kernel to avoid the bad addresses. Some discussion in https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/740806/user-friendly-way-to-apply-badram-patterns
