Hey everyone,
I'm looking for some help on some BSODs I've been getting, but before that I feel I should give a run down of how I got here.
This is the first time I have built a PC, I built it a couple of months ago. For the first few hours of use I ran into a heap of BSODs whenever I played games, attempted to fix them, ended up bricking my OS and had to reinstall it. I tried reinstalling drivers and everything. Finally worked out it was overheating was my issue because as soon as i opened up the side of the case it worked fine. PROBLEM SOLVED I thought, ill wait a while and just buy better cooling get an AIO and better fans.
Months pass and I buy my new cooling stuff. plug it in, make some fan curves and im all set no more BSODs, then I notice that if I play for a long period of time or on a particularly GPU stressing level or area, it BSODs. I figure my fan curves were a bit weak so i made them better, looks all good, then it happens again. Checking thermals I see that everything seems to be fine. GPU and CPU both running at around 60 C max. Then I notice the BSODs seem to be in regard to memory, so i check the M.2's thermals and it gets quite hot the max i saw it was 45 C, so I move that from behind the GPU to underneath, once again looks good. Then it BSODs again, this time with DRIVER IRQL NOT LESS THAN so i roll back to an old Nvidia driver doing a fresh install too. Still BSOD's but only memory management or Tried to Write to Readonly BSOD's occur.
This is where i am now, my guess is over the many many BSODs caused by overheating my M.2 is fried or partly fried. I ran the built in error checker in windows on it and got nothing.
Here is a Google Drive link to a Folder of 3 Minidumps, with the last one being the lastest.
