So a few days ago i upgraded my motherboard and ram, and ever since I've had random bluescreens every few hours with the code "Machine Check Exception".
I ran memtest86 overnight to see if it potentially was the ram and the test failed, telling me that it probably was. So i proceeded to replace the ram with the old ram that i know works fine and everything seemed to work, however after about 6 hours of not crashing it crashes again, but it's a new crash where instead of a bluescreen both my screens just go grey and my pc turns off quickly after. It's been crashing occasionally ever since. Sometimes it just restarts instantly with no grey/blue screen as well.
I decided to run another memory test and it doesn't fail, and now i'm not really sure what to do since it could be anything, but i'm leaning towards the motherboard?

Here's my latest minidumps in two folders, one for my old ram that i'm currently using and one for the new ram i upgraded to https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1AtWpML2oK574E4_8Hr_ENfy5vmTsP6i1?usp=sharing

Things i've tried so far:
Reinstalling chipset drivers
turning off xmp
made sure it's not my cpu temps, hottest it gets is 80 under load
turning off all overclocks on cpu and gpu
reseating ram

One thing is that it seems to only really crash when i'm playing games? But it has happened while just browsing the web.

can not read bios info. often means bios is out of date. look for update bios
cpu reported a general internal error. this can be caused by overclocking software.
I would remove:
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSI Afterburner\RTCore64.sys Thu Jun 18 04:55:42 2020

this driver is old: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\DRIVERS\ssgdio64.sys Fri Sep 9 11:40:54 2005
old ati diagnostics driver ? (remove)

not sure why you would have this installed:
C:\Windows\system32\drivers\myfault.sys Wed Jun 12 11:36:53 2019
(used for creating error conditions for debugging)

you can run autoruns and remove these drivers:
Autoruns for Windows - Windows Sysinternals | Microsoft Docs

problem could be from this driver also:

it could provide a bad overclock to cpu.
reset bios to defaults, remove this driver also and retest.

My bios is fully updated however it is the beta bios they have on the website, maybe i downgrade to the latest stable version?
I'll try to remove/do what you suggested and see if anything changes, will report back!
