So I've had a few BSODs from time to time.. Never thought much of it, then I had another and decided to look into it since the PC is less than a year old.
http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/VfkhdC Full system build (current)
From PCpartpicker, I did notice this before buying, but after a little looking, most put it down to their over caution.
So I ran WhoCrashed after this latest BSOD and it suggests that my issues could be memory related, and after running through some forum posts, a few other mentioned similar issues with 2133 on Haswell.
After checking with CPU-Z I could see it was running at around 800 MHz, and so a few more forum posts later it seemed I needed to change the settings in the BIOS, so changed them to the 11/11/11/31 as specs state. Now is showing 1066.5 MHz (2133 MHz).
I'm just worried the voltages may not be correct or it might reduce the lifetime of the parts,
Any help/ suggestions welcome.
Thanks

Compatibility Notes
The Avexir Core series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-2133 Memory operating voltage of 1.65V exceeds the Intel Haswell CPU recommended maximum of 1.5V+5% (1.575V). This memory module may run at a reduced clock rate to meet the 1.5V voltage recommendation, or may require running at a voltage greater than the Intel recommended maximum.
