RAM Failure

Hello,

My desktop was having issues with BSODs occurring at random times with a variety of error messages, applications (particularly high-res games) crashing, and random Chrome tabs crashing/not opening. I ran Window's memory diagnostic a few times, twice came up with an error (https://imgur.com/a/QSpUa) and once came up with "no problems." I am willing and able to buy new RAM chips and install them, but before I spend another $200 I wanted to double check the following:

-Is it certain that it's the RAM? Is there another hardware component that could cause this?

-Is there any reason I don't get a RAM error every time I run the diagnostic?

Any and all advice appreciated, thanks.
