There is a lot of talk about memory here but in my experience freezes are more often caused by the hard drive failing or an overheating issue. I dunno if there's a good widely used memtest for a hard drive I usually just use the onboard one you tend to get to by mashing f12 or whatever on startup but yeah not every PC has this. You can also run chkdsk which will telegraph a failing hard drive and fix it a bit by

Window key + r to bring up run
Type cmd and press enter (same procedure as last time, just cmd instead of dxdiag)
Then in the command prompt type chkdsk /r /f

Finding the results of that requires some more work which I can get into later if needed, but you can just run it and check performance after.

Also get that thing Wang linked in post 25 or so to check temps while gaming.

But yeah memory problems more often will just crash your computer outright rather than freezing, from what I've observed.
