BSOD Random(?)

essenbe · 28 Mar 2015

You need a set of ram. You are going to have to take one out. You are really running both out of spec. But you need a set to run in dual channel mode. Take the Ripjaws out, boot straight into bios and set the ram to XMP values. You are also overclocked. Please set everything back to default levels. Also, it is much easier on us if you post screenshots here. Screenshots and Files - Upload and Post in Seven Forums

One of them is 1866 frequency and the other is 1333. I don't believe the timings are right for either one of them.

Ill take the Ripjaw out and I'll set the ram to default speeds. Do you think this was the cause of the blue screens?

Or is there no way of knowing what actually caused it in the end?

If you take one out and run the other at Manufacturer's specs and have no BSODs, then you will know. Then buy a set of ram that is compatible with your board and run the set and the set only.

Alright! Thank you so much for the help!
If it occurs again, I will post another thread... But hopefully not!

Hopefully not, but you can post here if you want or start a new thread once this one is solved.
