BSOD'S occurring at random
BSOD'S were less frequent before I installed a new motherboard and cpu, I suspect it may have something to do with the ram relevant files attached

This might seem like a daft question, but have you reinstalled your operating system (fresh) after installing the new motherboard and CPU?
I'd always recommend reinstalling Windows as a first port of call when getting blue screens in order to rule out hardware issues.
Awesome, fingers crossed that resolves your issue!
WarningPrograms that claim to update your drivers install either the wrong or corrupted drivers.
If you have installed any driver with Driver Genius, please remove them as it may cause trouble.
This might be difficult, unless Driver Genius is causing everything if any driver from Driver Genius has been installed.
There seems to be different causes in each crash and most are not the same error code, at this point it is difficult to connect anything with each other that makes sence and would get closer to a stable system.
This kind of troubleshooting usually relates to hardware problems, which is why I added hardware tests.
Please follow instructions below carefully.
USB network adapters often causes network related crashes. Please disconnect the ASUS network adapter while troubleshooting and do not connect it.
Please try to update your BIOS to version F6, current one is F4
GIGABYTE - Motherboard - Socket 1150 - GA-B85N (rev. 1.1)
Please update or uninstall Elgato
Please uninstall everything of Nvidia using Display Driver Uninstaller and install new drivers from Nvidia. Be sure the clean install box is checked and only install the Graphics driver and the PhysX driver.Code:*** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for ElgatoGC658.sys *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for ElgatoGC658.sys 1: kd> lmvm ElgatoGC658 start end module name fffff880`04560000 fffff880`0456f000 ElgatoGC658 T (no symbols) Loaded symbol image file: ElgatoGC658.sys Image path: \SystemRoot\System32\Drivers\ElgatoGC658.sys Image name: ElgatoGC658.sys Timestamp: Wed Nov 09 08:39:12 2011 (4EBA2E20) CheckSum: 00018494 ImageSize: 0000F000 Translations: 0000.04b0 0000.04e4 0409.04b0 0409.04e4

Ok, I'm extremely sorry for being so late on this, I was very busy with other stuff didn't have time etc etc.
However I followed the steps about the drivers and tested to see if it worked without going through all the other tests, And it worked sort of. Instead of BSOD'S the computer would freeze and reboot, So I ran memtest86 and yep the ram is faulty.
Thank you axe0 for providing a simple, easy to use guide and took time and effort out of you day to help me, thank you so very much
