BSOD randomly, new computer

anomolies · 07 Oct 2012

bad title, but I really don't know what else to say beyond this

I built a new computer yesterday, since then it's had a few random BSOD's, seems to happen when I'm doing anything at all, from non cpu intensive tasks such as browsing, or opening folders, to running vmware.

specs are as follows:
nothing is overclocked

3930k corsair h80 cooler
vertex 4 128 gb ssd
radeon 6950 2gb
rosewill 550w platnium rated PSU
32gb ram. 1600 G.skill Z-series (i have tried with automatic settings and XMP settings)

I've attached the dump files as well. Hope someone can help me out here, thanks in advance

looked through all those threads and cant exactly find any useful information... as in, the issue was not solved in not one of those posts

I tried changing the TDR registry but that didn't fix it.. cant think of what to do now except returning the card

Try it in another computer? See how it works there
