What breaks first: PSU, motherboard or RAM?

Hi.

I have a 7 year old Windows 8 PC (i7, 16GB RAM, ASUS motherboard, 4 HDD, Random graphics card, Enermax Modu82+ PSU, Firewire Soundcard, and expensive fancy PCIe Audio thing) and it's suddenly started freezing when I run audio programs (ie: Ableton); I have to hold the power button down for five seconds to turn the PC off.

Ran about 5 instances of MEMTEST and no issues were reported.

I'm assuming one of the major components will need to be replaced, but which one is most likely?

Thanks for reading this :)
