    BSOD ntoskrnl.exe when gaming.


    Hi, I have been having random BSOD problems for a while now, mainly seems to be when gaming.

    When a dump file is created ntoskrnl.exe seems to come up a lot. Gpu and cpu temps all seem fine 70/54-60 approx.

    I hope from the mini dump file someone point out to me any potential reasons for these BSOD.

    If any other information needed please ask.

    Thanks in advance.
