Hello sevenforums users.

I am having a problem lately with frequent BSOD x124 happening at my PC , most noticeably while playing games.

I've been reading that this problem is due to hardware temperatures going high, and this would make sense for me as I OC-ed my CPU, but it's strange since I never had this BSOD happening before (which was 6+ months after I OC-ed my CPU) and seeing it suddenly appear confuses me.

I've gone to check with CPUID HardwareMonitor my CPU temps and they seem okay, but there is a discrepancy where it shows that my CPU voltages are set to 1.4 even though at BIOS it states that they are 1.3 (how I put it when OC-ing) , so I don't know which one is right here.

When playing games I don't run any applications in the background (except small ones like Anti Virus and NVIDIA Experience), so I'm not sure what could be causing heating issues.

I've been playing some games which are far more CPU demanding than I do now and the BSOD's never happened. Any suggestions for this problem.

Here is the attachment, and even if I don't fix this, I just want to say thank you to all the community for all the work you've done, as I had other problems before and you folk helped me fix them.

You are running an ASUS Product ID (PID) on an ASRock board.
This makes your installation counterfeit.
Troubleshooting a counterfeit installation is useless as it is not known what has been modified to your system.
A counterfeit installation contains heavily modified code which causes the system to behave in unexpected ways.
For this reason, analyzing counterfeit systems is unreliable and most analysts won't try it.

I recommend to install a genuine copy of Windows.
