BSOD During Battlefield 4 Beta, Error 0x00000124
I've been playing the Battlefield 4 Beta since October 1, but this is the first time I've had a BSOD while playing (though I've had previous crash-to-desktops from the beta).

Welcome to SF :) .
I wouldn't worry too much about one bugcheck only when they are becoming more often
is when we can consider we have a problem on out hands.
Your PC tends to overheat quite often:Code:BugCheck 124, {0, fffffa8006e67028, be000000, 100110a} Error : GCACHEL2_ERR_ERR (Proc 1 Bank 8) Error Type : Cache error Operation : Generic

Stop 0x124 minidumps contain very little practical information, and it is therefore necessary to approach the problem as a case of hardware in an unknown state of distress. - H2SO4

What is the make an model of you PSU?
Fill out this form and post back the result:
Good practice, open up the case and re-seat all types of connection.
- SATA Cables (HDD/SSD/ODD).
- SATA-Power.
- Motherboard 24-pin.
- Motherboard 4/8-pin (CPU).
- Re-seat the RAM.
- Re-seat the GPU.
Make sure that every slot / cable head is free of dust or other obstruction.
Make sure that every connection is seating properly and firmly in-place.
Test for thermals and stability:
- Download Speccy and post a Screenshot of the summary window, one at idle and another while putting load on the PC using Prime95 for the CPU side and Furmark for the GPU.
- Before running Prime95 make sure to enable Round-off checking (see 1st post under the tutorial).
Reset the BIOS back to default in case you're unaware that your CPU is overclocked:
NoteWrite down the current value of the SATA Mode!
Its either AHCI or IDE.
After resetting the CMOS go back and verify the value for SATA Mode is what it was
when the OS was installed.
NoteIf any component is overclocked reset it back to stock speeds!
