Random BSOD while gaming or idle
Usually it happens when I am playing a game (BF3, CS:GO, GW2) but sometimes it happens while idling or while I am browsing the internet. I have tried to resolve the issue myself but without success so here is everything I have done recently to fix the issue.
Reformat did not work.
Default BIOS settings did not work (no overclocking anyways)
Tweaked BIOS ram settings to XMP which made the issue happen less frequent. (went about a two weeks with no restarts)
I know that voltage readings from BIOS aren't very reliable but the 3.3v is running around 2.8-2.9v for the past couple of months. I tested the PSU with a multimeter and everything was OK.
I switched out my GTX570 for a spare 9800GT+ and did not get a restart but with how random they are I can't blame the video card definitively.
I am at a loss for ideas. Any help would be appreciated. If you need anymore info let me know.
I thought the issue had been resolved previously in:

Sorry for the repost but I was unable to get help in the previous topic.
Thanks in advance.
