0x00000050 This BSOD means that invalid system memory has been referenced. BSOD error code 0x00000050 may also show "PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA" on the same blue screen. 0x000000D1 This BSOD means that a kernel-mode driver attempted to access pageable memory at a process IRQL that was too...

you're CPU is more than likely overheating, AMD chips are known to run very hot, and if you're using the stock AMD cooler that is definitely not helping.

Can you tell me what BSOD error code your are getting? usually starts with "0x" followed by more numbers.

find your product key and make sure to write it down, you will probably need it later. just stick your old HDD and install it into your new PC as the main drive since that is where your operating system will be, then just go about installing whatever drivers you will need and you should be fine.

AMD processors run pretty hot in general, but if you're using a stock AMD cooler i suggest buying an after market heat sink asap, AMD stock coolers are very bad at cooling, it doesn't have to be a very expensive heat sink either you can go with like a 20$ 212 hyper evo and you're good to go. i...

Any idea what your temps are?

i would say upgrade your processor it would be a much bigger difference than you realize, and your computer all around would be faster if you upgraded your processor, you will also see a good increase in fps i guarantee you that. it's pointless to upgrade to a better graphics card when your...

You could take a look at "Ensourced.net" the guy that runs the website hand sleeves every cable himself and you can customize each cable exactly how you want it, the tech tuber kyle otherwise known as "BitWitKyle" uses ensourced frequently, and seems to have nothing but good things to say about...

well there wont be a huge difference but i personally like having a push configuration, if you're pushing air through your heat sink it will keep your processor cooler but your other components will be a little warmer so it's important to have good ventilation. however if you decide to use a...

An easy fix would be to slightly pull the fan up along the heat spreader just enough to get the clearance you need so the ram can fit, it wont effect your temps by much, just a suggestion. it would be better than using the fan on the heat sink as an exhaust.

Try unplugging your PSU, reset the CMOS (leave it out for about five minutes before putting it back in) then try to boot it back up.

Would you happen to have a spare hard drive laying around? it could be a failing drive. six years is pretty old, especially for a hard drive, they only have so much read/write cycles before the drive will start to fail, and can cause many problems.

i have an AMD a10 7870k CPU and was curious as to what the best GPU i could get that my CPU wouldn't bottleneck, or what would be the best way to determine whether or not my CPU could handle and couldn't.

Right now I have an A10 7870k APU & I was wondering if it would throttle a gtx 970 SC, and if so by how much do you think?
