Memteat is in the third pass,0 errors.I stopped fumark after thirty minutes a 68c.Yesterday I got another bsod

Continue upto 8 passes.

No problem, just let us know when the test is completed.

That's good. They take a lot of time to run, but it takes a full 8 passes to do a complete test. That's the trouble with tracking down hardware problems. Almost all the tests take a lot of time.

That's great about the ram passing. As far as the dump files and diagnostic tool, I'll get someone who can read them to answer. I'm not smart enough to read the files. Tell me about your Furmark test. Did you see any artifacts? When you ran the test, the temps started rising, did you let it run long enough for the temps to level out? Typically, that's what cards do. The temps will rise to a point, them level out and stay about the same with only a little fluctuation. Did yours run long enough to do that? Your temps were real good for that test. Have you run all the Windows upgates? Look at the updates it wants to install, don't let it update the graphics card driver. But run all the rest of the updates.

When you get the BSOds, is there anything in particular you are doing? Are you, for example, running one particular program or app? Is there anything else unusual about your operating system happening as well as the BSODs?

If you would, would you please go into BIOS and look in the area rhat monitors your hardware like temps and voltages and please give me the reading of your +12V, +5V and +3.3V. I am unfamilar with the brand of power supply you have. Many of the cheaper models, don't put out what they claim to and most will put out less power with age as capacitors get older. If you have any thoughts of what the problem is, please let us know. You can see and hear what is going on. It's difficult for us because we can't. We have to depend on you to be our eyes and ears and let us know exactly what is happening.

If Arc doesn't get to it first, I'll be happy to take a look this evening when I'm home from work.
