Hello everyone,
I've been having frequent BSODs on my self-built PC , at least once per day. Gaming, or in simple stand by.
my dump file here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1H9TdTQ7SFKfHINZuEzX81TkMksrHJzhs/view?usp=sharing
Mem Test 86 failed, I have the results but I don't know how to upload it here.
PS: Bios version is up to date, windows up to date, same to graphics and any other drivers. Also, after the MemTest, checkdisk and any other "Microsoft fixing solutions", I don't have it any more. Still got the issue on my head, maybe it's still there.

Max error count you want in memtest is 0, if you get any more than that, you found your problem
replace ram with errors and see if that fixes it.

3 different types of ram? thats going to cause issues anyway.
Did you test 1 stick at a time?

Hy, thx for short time reply.

I don't recall major problems in the past. The problems appear since upgrading to windows 10, if I recall correctly, but i'm not 100% sure.
And No, I didn't check one stick at the time. I thought that the test will reveal problems ( and it did) on all slots, but I don't know how to interpretate individualy.
Here is the summary of MemTest:

Test 13 [Hammer test]4/4 (100%)0

Test 13 [Hammer test] Warning
Note: Your RAM may be vulnerable to high frequency row hammer bit flips. However the conditions needed to induce these errors occur only very rarely in normal PC usage, and so this should not be of concern to most users

Kindly thx, again !

Only way to know which sticks cause the errors is to run it one stick at a time. remove any with errors.

Win 10 uses ram differently to previous versions of windows so its more likely to find errors in sticks other versions didn't before.

So, all individual tests are completed. ZERO errors, on each one of them. I have test 3 of them in one dim slot, and the last one in the "original" slot, zero issues.
3 different types of ram? thats going to cause issues anyway.
it might be the issue ? I don't know what to do next ...
P>S> Last night I've had the same problem, BOSD with the same code, so this morning I have done the individual MemTests.
