    What you say makes total sense and I appreciate your kandor.

    So: a 400 watt unit should suffice?

    Thanks again,

    Well, not just any 400W unit, but yeah; this would be overkill. You could even get a GTX 670 or even a GTX 680 with this PSU.

    Do you mean you're hoping to find something different and cheaper than the 400W Antec NEO ECO?

    Yeah, but it's $40.98 after shipping. Still, they claim that it's new and unopened and they have a 100% positive rating!

    All the BSODs relate to memory. It's tough to diagnose the exact problem because the last dump indicates a Page Table Entry or the Index is corrupt when Chrome tried to release it. It could have been over-written by a faulty driver, an errant program (malware) or memory itself could be faulty. It could be low voltage but before replacing parts, perhaps some tests might help.

    If you are overclocking the processor or memory, stop until the problem can be identified.

    Run a full scan with your antivirus after making sure it is updated. A stand alone scan is also advisable--Such as the free version of MBAM.

    Run SFC /scannow from an elevated command prompt and report back with any error messages.

    Test memory with Memtest86+ following the suggestions in the link. (Over night is best.)

    And some info on your memory modules might help. Make, model, speed, etc.

    I will say that even if the memory is the culprit, no system should ever be subjected to a PSU like that.
