I do apologize for the vagueness of the title but I wanted to be as accurate as possible. I've recently upgraded my PC (new motherboard, new case, new graphics card, new RAM, and new PSU but I kept all my hard drives and am using the same CPU) and reinstalled Windows 10 fresh (well, I did a reset and wiped all my files). Ever since then, I have been running into various BSOD errors - off the top of my head I can name: DPC Watchdog Violation, BSOD_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT, System Service Exception (ntfs.sys), PFN_LIST_CORRUPT, and most recently (as of like...30 minutes ago) Kernel Securty Check Failure, and I don't really know what to do.
It's been a different error just about every time, and they happen randomly - I could be playing a game, or browsing the internet, or chatting in Discord - randomly the PC will just crash. I've done an sfc scan and found nothing, as well as ran memtest overnight on my two new RAM sticks and it came back with 0 errors, which makes me think this is a driver issue but I have 0 idea what driver it could be, and was hoping someone could help me out! I'm planning on running a chkdsk scan tonight while I sleep to see if anything weird happens, but I wanted to post here first in case there's a different solution I haven't tried. I've attached a link to both my minidump files as well as MEMORY.DMP (though this one is about 2GB, not sure if it's relevant).

If there's any other information you need from me, please let me know, and thanks in advance to anyone who offers to help.

I also ran both the Windows Memory Diagnostic Tool and Chkdsk yesterday evening - the Memory Diagnostic Tool came back with 0 errors though chkdsk did give this back in the logs (I fell asleep and had to pull this from the Event Viewer)
