Hey everyone,
Recently, about a month ago, I started getting some pretty annoying BSOD issues, mainly when playing intensive games, such as Rust and Tarkov. The BSOD messages I see most commonly are "IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL" , and some other with the word Watchdog or something. When just browsing or playing less intensive games such as league, I do not blue screen NEARLY as much as games like Rust and Tarkov as mentioned above. I have 32gb DDR4 3200, and all 32gb show in my task manager so it is all still registering, but I noticed something when I started experiencing this issue. I usually crash when loading into servers on both the intensive games, and its 50% 50% whether I connect to the server or the game crashes. The BSOD usually occurs randomly when I am playing, not taking more than 2 hours before it occurs. My CPU temps are good, and I still get pretty good fps. I tried running memtest86, but whenever I try to boot from it, the pc stops for a second like its about to reboot, then just does nothing and I'm still in BIOS. Any help would be appreciated on what my next step should be. I ran memory diagnostic tool in windows, and it said no errors but I think it may be my ram. Also one more thing, if I bump my PC with my knee for example, the whole thing freezes.
