As you are getting BSODs, you should stop overclocking and run all the hardware components like CPU, GPU and RAM to their default settings.Code:BugCheck 1A, {41201, fffff68000068040, 9c602600b549b867, fffffa800a8ba990} Probably caused by : ntkrnlmp.exe ( nt! ?? ::FNODOBFM::`string'+13702 ) Followup: MachineOwner ---------
Test your RAM modules for possible errors.
How to Test and Diagnose RAM Issues with Memtest86+
Run memtest for at least 8 passes, preferably overnight.
If it start showing errors/red lines, stop testing. A single error is enough to determine that something is going bad there.
Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.
Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark
Stress test the CPU.

Plus, as it is a GTX 760, it is supposed to have some driver issue. And unfortunately I dont know any driver version that works good with GTX 700 series. You may try the drivers on a trial and error basis:
- 320.49 WHQL
- 327.23 WHQL
- 331.58 WHWL
- 331.65 WHQL
- 331.82 WHQL
- 332.21 WHQL
- Any other version later
Get them from Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers
Do a clean install on all of them. Uninstall the previously installed driver first.
Uninstall All nvidia items in Control Panel > Programs and features
- 3D Vision Control Driver
- 3D Vision Driver
- Graphics Driver
- HD Audio Driver
- PhysX
- nvidia Update
- GeForce Experience
(Are you using nvidia chipset drivers? If so, dont uninstall anything other than those are listed).- Now follow Drivers - Clean Left over Files after Uninstalling
- Download the target WHQL. While installing, Select Custom (Advanced) install. In the next page, follow this settings:
Lengthy process, but the only stable version of nvidia is 314.22 lately, which does not support 700 series GPU.
I don't do any overclocking, RAM tests came back clear a few weeks ago after 10 or so passes. I will move to the CPU and GPU tests and report back
