BSOD, sometimes when playing FFXIV

Jaketsu · 21 Sep 2014

Hi!

I've had this BSOD a second time now within two months and it's getting me a bit worried. It has happened both times when I have been playing Final Fantasy XIV. I don't exactly know what the error was but I did download the tool to make the files of it (I guess) and zipped it and attatched to this thread.

After the BSOD my PC starts normally and doesn't behave oddly in any way. I might be a bit paranoid since this is only the 2nd time this has happened but it would be nice to know what might be the cause of this and how to resolve it. Any thoughts or questions?

Alright. Does the "Probably caused by : GenuineIntel" possibly refer to my CPU?

I tried reinstalling all my drivers (GPU and Mobo) but since the BSOD happens so rarely (at least so far) and if it happens in the future I will try some other things (I did clean my Case from all the dust, there was very little to be honest, since I cleared it few motnhs ago).

Also, I do have one additional question on CPU temps. I used HVMonitor. The max temp I recored was 59 degrees C when gaming (24 people raiding in FFXIV, which is what usually makes my CPU run the hottest), during other times I was around 50-55 degrees C. My CPU is i5-4670K and it has Arctic Cooler Freezer 7 CPU cooler and I have been asking around about that temperature and a lot of people said that I'm fine as long as I stay under 72 C. What are your opinions about the temperatures?

That temperature is fine under load :)

The:

Code:

"Probably caused by : GenuineIntel"

Is on most 0x124, because an 0x125 is normally a Hardware error, the CPU is the first thing to shutdown therefore the DMP Blames it on the CPU.

That was a quick answer!

I will keep you posted if BSOD happens again, so hopefully you won't see me replying to this thread again :)
