Hi there, In a terminal, write:
lspci (this is LSPCI all in lower case, it means you want it to list 'ls' the pci cards attached to the machine) You should be able to see something which relates to video cards or video. I know this is a pain, but did you try viewing YouTube videos at different times and on different machines at similar times? It would not be your RAM that's causing the problem because you have more than sufficient. It could be the graphics card isn't set up properly. Post the output of the command I've detailed and we should be able to help.
