nbd-vram
Use your NVIDIA GPU's VRAM as swap space on Linux. Built for laptops with soldered memory and no upgrade path. If you have an RTX card sitting there with 8GB of VRAM and you're getting swapped to SSD, this puts that VRAM to work

GPU4FS: A filesystem runs on GPU to accelerate data access
While it is not a 1:1 comparison there has been a driver for windows that allows the creation of a ram drive from vram for NVIDIA cards.

The Swedish 4090 prices dropped today, 2529 Euro for the Asus Strix. What a shitty time to be a gamer.
Yes it is possible. Here is a GitHub project that allows you to create a virtual disk using VRAM. And here is where someone installed Crysis 3 into VRAM on a 3090

Where should I go to get my computer inspected/looked at for faulty RAM?
Its probably the GPU VRAM. Unfortunately most of the 'tools' that I seem to be finding to test that are the equivalent of '10 easy steps for a faster PC, your never going to beleave #7... 1) give us money!'. But memory is memory, and to that end: https://github.com/prsyahmi/GpuRamDrive. Get that, something like MSI afterburner that can read VRAM usage. And your going to need some more cat videos... Set up the RAM drive, you probably want to leave about 2GB free for the cat videos to run, then load up the new drive with the cat videos (you can get one and just rename it a bunch of times) if you can get 4 or so running at once, that should fill up the last little bit of VRAM. Hopefully at some point something will crash or glitch. If it dose, reset everything and make sure that the cat video itself runs.

Initial benchmark results of a multi-gpu ramdisk drive.
I downloaded the gpuramdisk project from https://github.com/prsyahmi/GpuRamDrive and added my own gpu virtual array into its memory manager for a multi-gpu support on single ramdisk.
