Question Intel CPU - BSOD

Hello to the forum,

A few months ago I bought a system (except for the graphics card which I already had). The computer was intended almost exclusively for work and a little gaming.

The system has the following specs:
CPU: Intel I7 14700F
RAM: GSKILL NEO 4X16GB DDR4 3600Mhz
MOBO: ASUS TUF B760 WIFI DDR4
GPU: Gainward RTX 4090 Phantom
PSU: Corsair RMX 850W
Cooler: ARCTIC Freezer III 360

Everything was working without any problems while I had installed the latest bios with the intel "solution" and had set everything to intel defaults. After 1.5 months of heavy use in a project that had 3D rendering towards the end of the project, some bluescreens slowly started to appear. Now the situation has gotten out of hand and they appear even when the computer is idle.

The most common are the following:
- Memory Management
- irql not equal or less
- system service exception

Specifically for the second one (irql not equal or less) because I had a defective Ryzen in the past, it was the most common in this case as well. So far I have tried keeping only 2x16 RAM and setting the CPU to run at base clock 2GHz (i.e. disabling the boost clock). None of this has solved the problem. The next solution is format and if that doesn't solve the problem either, I will buy a new CPU/MOBO/RAM from AMD this time since I can't be without a computer and wait for RMA, etc.

Since the computer is used for work, the truth is that I would like to avoid formatting for the time being, so I'm asking for your opinion and especially if anyone with an Intel processor had the same BSOD.

I should note that when I try to compile binaries I get a c1001 internal compiler error where in 90% of the forums I saw many people report that it was due to a problematic CPU (and almost all of the threds are about INTEL CPUs being unstable). On another PC with a 13700KF and the same version of windows I do not have this error.

I know that the Neo range of rams are meant for AMD's AM4 platform(back in the day). You might want to pass on a link to the ram kit you're working with for us to corroborate that bit.

MOBO: ASUS TUF B760 WIFI DDR4
What BIOS version are you on for your motherboard?

PSU: Corsair RMX 850W
How old is the PSU in your build and what did it power prior? Seeing you have an RTX4090, you should've looked into a 1KW PSU.

So this system was used prior to your purchase?

You might want to pass on your .dmp files for us to see.

If the issue is with the OS, probably you can solve it by tinkering with repairing the OS but if it's hardware related(looking at the ram) then you can't solve that without replacing it). If your OS is corrupt, then you will need to reinstall it after recreating your bootable USB installer(and it take s few minutes to reinstall anyway).

1) My ram kit number is F4-3600C16D032GTZNC. I know that this kit was marketed as an AMD kit but it should also work with INTEL too. I used to use this kit in my other computer with i7 13700KF for about 2 years and never had a problem. It is also listed in the QVL as supported for the B760 tuf.

2)The PSU is almost brand new and was bought in August with the cpu. I also used to run the RTX 4090 with an HX850 for more than a year without a single problem. My GPU is from the lower end and gainward recommends 850W anyway. I mean its not a super clocked MSI supreme card.

3) The parts are all brand new and i got them last August with a fresh windows install. The GPU was also mine (not used by a previous owner/person) but i got it out from my other PC with i7 13700KF.

4) Here is a link with my miniDump files i tried to read them but i dont understand much. I would appreciate your help on that.

5) When i bought the mobo i immediatly installed the latest bios with the intel fixes. Now that the problems started i also updated to the latest bios that is available. This did not solve the problem.

An 850w may not be sufficient because of transient power spikes which can hit north of 500w alone for the GPU, and sometimes more for a 4090. Most here would recommend 1000w +.
