BSOD While playing games x124

Also forgot to ask is the error in the crashdump pointing towards the processor?

 

[axe0]

As mentioned earlier, the CPU reports the problem, there hasn't been anything specific said about the possible cause. This kind of crashes usually don't mention anything specific as possible cause.

Just a little information.

After putting your cpu back on the motherboard make sure you remove all thermal compound from the cpu and cooler and install new compound. Here is a little tutorial on how to do that.

Yup Its been done. Thanks

 

[Cruze]

I just don't really know what to do because I have Replaced the PSU the Mobo taken out sicks of ram and switched out the GPU to a older one but it always crashed with the same problem. That's why I feel it almost has to be the CPU. It couldn't be the harddrive right?

 

[Layback Bear]

Have you tested the hard drive?
Like axe0 has stated it could be many things and maybe more than one thing.
I try to never assume their is only one problem.

I'm not a BSOD expert by any means. You could have a hardware problem.

Use RealTemp to monitor your temps. It work very well with Intel cpu's.

I'm thinking that the bent pins on the old motherboard could of damaged your cpu.
The bent pins could of shorted across circuits on your cpu. You could try and RMA your cpu.

Here is the tricky part.
Bent pins on a motherboard can damage a cpu.
A damaged cpu could of done damage to your new motherboard.

This is why is so important to install these thing with great care.
If the same person that installed your cpu and bent the pins or didn't notice the bent pins, is also the person that installed your motherboard I would recommend have that installation redone by someone else.
Installing a cpu or motherboard is not difficult. You just have to have some basic knowledge and be very careful of what and how you do things and what not to do.

Example:
The oil from your hands and fingers can damage the pins circuits on the motherboard or the surface of the cpu that touches the pins on the motherboard. That is why you should never touch those surfaces. The gold contacts on your ram or video card should not be touched either.

You need to list the exact ram you have installed.

Ive tested temps everything is perfect and my warranty ran out a few months ago. I will try and just buy a new CPU and see if that fixes it but first I am gonna test my hard drive. Thank you for your guys help so far really appreciate it.

Ok I just realized something that seems off. Maybe im completely wrong but look at this picture and my ram says its at 666mhz isnt that really low? I have Corsair 16gb pretty sure its G.skill Ripjaws.

 

[axe0]

666MHz is low yes, but it is DDR (double data rate) meaning you have to double it.

Mine modules run on ~1600MHz, 800*2=1600MHz

 

[Layback Bear]

Cruz if you tick on the little ram in Speccy you will see exactly what ram is being used.

If you could post a picture of it.

 

[Cruze]

Ok I think this is what you wanted me to post and I know for a fact that this ram should be at least 1600mhz because when i bought it it said like 2133mhz....

 

[Cruze]

Ok I can confirm it is 2133mhz and the 2 all the way to the right in the picture meaning 2 sticks.

 

[Layback Bear]

What your picture shows is you have 2 sticks of ram (2X8 gig) at 1333 mhz speed.

Do these these things.

1. Post a website with the exact ram you have. You might have to remove a stick to get the info.

2. Post a picture of CPU-Z 1.75 for a 64 bit system like this.

Your cpu memory specs

No

 

[Cruze]

Here is the screenshot of CPUZ I don't know exactly what ram it is. Is there a way to check?

 

[Cruze]

What is that? the Cpu specs thing. I don't really know what that means lol

 

[Cruze]

Also I think I know why its at 666mhz. A while back I unoverclocked my CPU in bios setting everything back to default could that have caused this?

 

[axe0]

Your CPU frequency has nothing to do with the memory frequency and I already explained why speccy shows 666MHz in a previous post in this thread

 

[Cruze]

Oh my bad I see it now.

 

[Cruze]

Ok ill remove a stick in a bit here and get back to you.
