so i got some new ram to try and fix the memory related bsods but it didn't fix it. I've also gotten some gpu related bsods. My pc doesnt crash under load tho .

i want to know if bad vram/gpu can cause blue screens like

KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
ATTEMPTED_EXECUTE_OF_NOEXECUTE_MEMORY
INVALID_IO_BOOST_STATE
KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
APC_INDEX_MISMATCH
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
HYPERVISOR_ERROR
KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

(i got all of these in the past 2 days)


also like every 10 minutes my pc blinks artifacts that look like this ↓
sry for the ms paint drawing
 
Are you mixing new RAM with old RAM by any chance? Is the AX4U320038G16A-DT60 one stick of RAM or 2 x 8GB maybe?

Did you do anything recently before BSODs started? Update graphics driver maybe? Install anything new with drivers?

What version BIOS do you have? Is Armory Crate installed?
