Solved Desktop Window Manager and Other error logs

I've tested the video card, it performs fine. I've wanted to test ram but am not entirely sure how to do it. One thing I've noticed is sometimes discord flickers in the background.
 
Here is one way to test the RAM
  • Click Start, type mdsched.exe in the Search box, and then press Enter.
  • Choose whether to restart the computer and run the tool immediately or schedule the tool to run at the next restart.
  • Windows Memory Diagnostics runs automatically after the computer restarts and performs a standard memory test automatically. If you want to perform fewer or more tests, press F1, use the Up and Down arrow keys to set the Test Mix as Basic, Standard, or Extended, and then press F10 to apply the desired settings and resume testing.

To get the results
The log resides in Event Viewer
  1. Type event into Cortana Search beside your Start Button, open Event Viewer
  2. Navigate to Windows Logs - System
  3. In the right hand pane select 'Memory Diagnostics' to see the result of the test(s)
 
This is about the best I can do. That's the distance between the motherboard and the case, sorry it's kind of blurry.

The post that is between the case and the motherboard is the spacer and if you have one on every screw then that should not be the issue.

Is this the system overclocked?

@Bruce @phillpower2 I will be out for a few days any suggestions and thanks.
 
with what's been tried so far, and not much else to suggest, I would be thinking it's time to think outside the box and either do a repair install or a fresh install of Windows.

since you have skin in the game with building rigs, I would dismantle it completely, de-dust all components, re-assemble, re-apply new thermal paste and then decide which re-install approach to take.
for me, it would be backing up my files, and nuking from space, ie: start afresh.
yep, OS, software, drivers and all that they entail (accounts, passwords, product keys etc) but you will either have nutted out the weird issue (yes, with an oversized hammer for the job granted) or you can start the troubleshooting again from a known, clean, state.
