Hi,

I have been getting BSODs the last 2 days from doing random things such as just browsing the internet (I was trying to google some of the stop codes, and I blue screened one time, go figure) to playing games on my computer.

I custom built my PC 3 months ago, and I recently installed a new heatsink 2 days ago.
My CPU was overclocked to 4.0 with a stock cooler, and I tried to up to to 4.2 once I installed the new heatsink. I'm using an i5-4670k processor with an ASRock Z87 PRO4 motherboard. I set my processor back to normal clock speeds since.

With the new heatsink, my CPU sits at around 40 C idle, and my graphics card sits around 40 C as well idle. The highest my CPU has hit is 61 C while I was playing and streaming watchdogs.

Can't really think of any other changes that went on in the last 2 days.


I also tried to do a system restore to "fix" my BSOD problems, but the system restore failed.

Any help would be appreciated.

Got another bluescreen with a new error code. The logs have EVERY bluescreen I have had so far on this computer.

I did a memory test overnight and found no errors. I did a stress test on my CPU for 2 hours and it didn't seem to crash as well. Max temp it hit was 71 C.

more errors, gonna upload the logs
