Question Constant bsods

Hello everyone, I've been experiencing a crazy turn of events with my pc lately. I’ve built it myself using research and cross referencing compatibility lists etc.

I never truly got it stable but it never had bsods like this before(to the point it wouldn’t post or would post then crash immediately after logging in). The errors were mostly “IRQL Not Less Than or Equal” or “System Service Exception”.
I’ve done just about everything except driver verifier multiple times (sfc, dism, reseating ram, testing individual sticks, etc).

Every now and then it’ll bsod with the “Ntoskrnl.exe” file being projected as what’s failed.
I’ve tried using WinDBG to look at the mini dumps that were created and that tells me a files named “GenuineIntel.sys” is what caused the crash.

It’s odd as I’ve bought an additional ram kit(same ram, timings, speed) because of my findings prior to try and make the system more stable but the crashes still occur. It got to the point where I bit the bullet and tried to clean install windows 11, that got me into a bsod loop where I couldn’t even get past the installation screen before it would crash. (Sometimes “Critical Process Died” or the common “your pc ran into a problem”)

Any help regarding this would be awesome, thanks.
