Hello everyone, been a while since I payed a visit but now I'm afraid I came because I'm desperetaly need of help, this is a nightmare I want to return everything and buy a MAC.
Some weeks ago I decided to upgrade my old build. I bought a I9 9900k, 32gb of Gskill DDR4-3200 ram a z390 gygabite aorus elite mb plus a 2080 VGA, when I had some free time I built everything got but inmediatly I got some BSOD's, updated BIOS and after a while everything calmed down, no more BSOD nice stability, nice performance. That lasted for like a week, during I was even able to do a 4 hours marathon of Fallout 4 with like 99 mods loaded at 1440p, it was the happy days.
Last sunday I was just cheking some stuff on a excel book and computer frozed, completely dead, after that I can get twenty BSOD in a row before getting to windows for 20 secs and it gets frozen. I have no more information for you I was not doing anything fancy.
The things I did to try to fix or find what its the problem:
Right now I have no idea what to do, I can go into BIOS but anything after its blue screen. I'm out of my league here, this is ugly.
Can you guys give me some advice in what I may have missed?
Tyvm in advance I'm going to cry for a bit now, my frustration it's over the scale.

The things I did to try to fix or find what its the problem:
- Updated to latest BIOS.
- Disabled XMP.
- Swaped ram modules and installed them on every slot one by one.
- Check phisically the motherboard, the cpu and the ram modules for any phisical defects.
- Checked thermal paste and temps.
- Bought another 1000W PSU gold (I had a corsair RM1000 before but it was 5 years old), same problems.
- A friend brought me his DDR4 modules (same behavior), no change.
- removed every posible wire from the motherboard, I mean usb, front panel connectors that kind of stuff.
- removed every drive from the motherboard (blue screens from pendrive with windows 10 installation program), no drive connected.
- I RMA'ed the Gigabyte motherboard for a ROG strix Z390h gaming motherbord (seemed like the most obvious option), I was completely happy that I found the problem, I cant even get to windows installation.
- Removed the 2080 and used the computer thru onboard graphics.
- did a new pendrive with windows 10 installation.
- I increased the CPU voltage to 1.25v, no change there.
Right now I have no idea what to do, I can go into BIOS but anything after its blue screen. I'm out of my league here, this is ugly.
