For the past week or so, I've been getting a consistent BSOD every couple of hours. I'm unsure as to what is causing it, though around a month ago, I was getting a BSOD due to my 970 GPU drivers, but that had seemed to gone away. Can someone please take a look at my dmp's and logs and give me some insight on what might be causing the BSOD to occur?

I have attached my SF_Diag file

Thanks!

All the recent BSODs happened when you were playing WOW. And all those are stop 0x124.

Are you overclocking? As you are getting BSODs, you should stop overclocking and run all the hardware components like CPU, GPU and RAM to their default settings.

Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark. Take a screenshot of the furmark window before closing it. Upload the screenshot for us.

Stress test the CPU. It saves the result as a .txt file in the prime95's folder. Upload the file for us.

Is the computer hot? Report us the heat of the computer after a couple of hours of your normal usage. Upload a screenshot of the summery tab of Speccy. Alternatively, you can publish a Speccy snapshot too: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/311593-speccy-publish-snapshot-your-system-specs.html .

Check if the Power Supply Unit (PSU) supplying adequate power to the computer or not.

Also let us know the wattage of your PSU.

Let us know the results.

Thanks for your help, Arc. I'll go ahead and follow the provided steps and post my results here in a bit. Yeah, I have noticed that it is only occurring when WoW is running. I didn't take that into consideration since it's almost always running with automation. I am OC'ing my i5 2500k at the moment and will reset that OC here shortly.

My PSU is a 750 watt TX Gold. I would think that 750 would provide enough power for my 970 and i5.

Did the GPU stress test for 10min. The temps were leveling out so I figured it was good enough. I did not see any artifacts. I will also attach a screencap of my Speccy summary tab.

Today I had a BSOD when I was doing just normal tasks. WoW was not running this time so that kind of singles out WoW being part of the issue. Unfortunately, I believe I restarted before it successfully created a mini dump. Next time it occurs, i'll attach the .dmp my temperatures also look fine.

I will go ahead and start a CPU benchmark here in a bit. Let me know if you have any other ideas and thanks again!

Will wait to see a BSOD without the WoW.

Just got a BSOD. At the time, I had chrome open with a variety of tabs. Wasn't playing any games or running anything else, especially demanding.

Attached my .dmp file for analysis.

Thanks!

Well, it is stop 0x124 irrespective of the situations. Though I am thinking that the display is taking a great role in it, it may not be the right thing .... but it would be better that you use either of the graphics, not the both onboard intel and dedicated nvidia at the same time. See how it goes.

Also, you have a lot of asrock bloatware installed. I'd recommend you to http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/219576-clean-up-factory-bloatware.html, because it is often found that the bundled unnecessary programs by the motherboard manufacturer contributes to stop 0x124.

Let us know the situation after trying these two.
