Does BSODing hurt my PC?

Your computer is already "hurt" or it wouldn't be throwning BSODs

Something is already 'not right'. And if you keep doing this, your software (OS?) will become corrupted.

Why are you getting these BSOD's?

I'm aware BSODs are bad, but thank you both for the concern and attempt to help.

Why I am getting these BSODs: CPU is bad.
Story: PC1 (BSODing one, i7/lga1150) BSODs every <48hrs. Replaced every component in it but the CPU and RAM. When RMAing the mobo recently, was using a different CPU (i5)/mobo (lga 1155) but all other components were the same - and no BSODs for 4 weeks (was on 6.5 days, then rebooted every 2-3 days). Nirsoft's bluescreenview says the "Crash Address" has always been the same since as far back as the reinstall of this OS goes (June), so it wasn't different bad components as all of them have been replaced but bluescreenview still has the same signature. Also: given same RAM was used but no BSOD and 100+ hours in all kinds of configs has never reported one error - it's not the RAM.

After discovering the mobo wasn't at fault, I resigned to just using PC2 (i5 cpu/lga1155 mobo) until I figure out how to get a new CPU................ but that PC broke too (I broke the mobo lol). So I don't have a PC to use but this BSODing one.


I was asking if i need to seek a CPU replacement ASAP, or if it's safe to use hardware-wise while I wait for a sale.
