Actually, there were three bent pins in the previous board, and everyone seems to think it was my fault. Although they were bent and had to be straightened before the installation of the cooler, they were bent more extensively when I took out the 6700 after my board died. And I found on some of...

Thank you, for your concern. I have dropped the board off at the Gigabyte service centre and am also in the process of sending the RAMs for possible RMA. Keeping my fingers crossed. Let's see what happens! I shall update this thread accordingly.

So, a little update. According to the suggestions received, I reseated the CPU, cooler, and RAM. And then it started, did a clean install on the SSD. Got a BSOD error after around 8 hours of working today. Then did a windows memory diagnosis. Completed that with no error. Then, ran windows...

Page file error is coming after installation completes from the USB and the machine restarts.

IRQ, Page file, and some with 0x codes. I am not overclocking anything...only the RAM is on XMP. Disabling it has no effect whatsoever.

I built a PC with a Gigabyte Z70M-D3H, an Intel Core i7 6700, and a 16GB Corsair Vengeance 2400Mhz C14 RAM in 2016. I installed Windows 10 Pro on a 1TB Seagate HDD in the legacy mode. Then, slowly, I upgraded and added new parts. In 2017-18, I upgraded to a 32GB(2x16GB) 3000Mhz RAM kit, added a...

Thank you for your suggestions! Will look into it definitely!

No, the simulations do not need faster storage, that I can agree with you. But, I may need something for one of my future projects. Let that be for the moment.

I am not entirely sure at the moment. May be not right now but may need it within a year and a half.

Wouldn't going for a B450 hurt future upgradability? I have built my system slowly by upgrading it over 4-5 years.

Budget is around 40-45K INR (India) Threadripper, in my country, is way out of reach! :(

I have a Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB 2400 MHz C14 (CMK16GX4M1A2400C14). My build is i7 6700, Gigabyte Z170M-D3H and a Sapphire Radeon RX 460 2GB. Now, I have ordered another 16GB RAM, but I received a C16 kit. I had already paid for it. It was not readily available, so I had to pay in advance...

Well now that you mention December, I remembered that I installed a fresh copy of Windows 10 with a build from last September. After it was automatically updated to the current build, this problem started.
