Hello!
I have recently overhauled my PC with a new mobo, memory and cpu.
My specs are:
ASRock Z370 Killer SLI (BIOS ver. 4.30. - newest)
Intel Core i3-9100f
MSI GTX 970 Gaming 4X
Crucial Ballistix Sport LT Gray, 2x8GB DDR4 @2666MHz, CL16
FSP 460W OEM PSU
Cooler Master Hyper 212 RGB Black cooler
Patriot Burst 120GB SSD
Toshiba P300 1TB HDD
I am running a fresh install of Windows 10 and have already reinstalled multiple times. I let memtest86 run 10 passes overnight and got 0 errors.
The BSOD's happen seemingly randomly but seem to increase in intensity until I run memtest which i find very weird. Clearing the CMOS helps for a while but then the BSOD's start happening again like described above.
Any help would be apreciated. Thanks.
 
I've been running it underclocked to 2400MHz for a while now. Could it be that before I underclocked the speed, it had done damage to the system in some way?
