Question Memory Management

[Fantazye Kompiuter]

I just built a new PC and I'm getting this BSOD error but I don't know whether it's my RAM or Video card.
Here are my specs:

AMD Ryzen 5 2600X
ASRock X470 Master SI/AC (Something like that)
Corsair Vengance LPX 16 GB
Gigabyte Low Profile Silent Geforce GTX 1030 Ti

The operating system is installed on a solid state drive and everything else is on a hard drive.

I've done a few tests myself. I ran memory diagnostics and found nothing, then I ran CHKDSK and that turned up with nothing, then I reinstalled my graphics card driver and I'm not sure that did anything. Is there anything else I should try, or does anyone have a solution?
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks!

Edit: I was playing around with some programs that might be causing it and I found that the only time it does this is when I'm copying files, specifically linking files to iTunes. Anyone know why this is happening?

What speed is your memory running at (in your BIOS)?

Is your motherboard BIOS up to date? Are you attempting to overclock anything?

My BIOS is up to date. My memory is running at 2133 MHz right now and I haven't over locked anything yet because of this error.

Is Windows fully updated? All your apps from legit sources?

Do you have access to another GPU to swap for troubleshooting (per your earlier concern)?

What kind of SSD are you using (M.2 or 2.5 inch SATA)?

Windows is up to date and all of my apps are either stock windows or from official websites. That's a good idea. I have another computer I built a while ago with a different video card. I'll swap those two and see how it works. The SSD is M.2.

Thanks for your help!

M.2 SSDs, when installed, often conflict with certain SATA ports. On similar systems, it is the last 2 SATA ports (5 and 6).

If you have anything attached to those last 2 SATA ports, move the connector to another port. Worth a shot.

Are you talking about on the motherboard or the cable they're attached to?

The SATA ports on the motherboard. Move the cable attached to your HDD from the last 2 ports (usually 5 and 6) to one of the first 2 ports, if this is how you are configured now..

That's how it is now. On the first two ports.

Just checking. Try the GPU swap.

Also, what is the make/model or your power supply?

Alright, I'll let you know when I'm finished.

My power supply is a Corsair CX 450M

I just got a different blue screen. It says SYSTEM THREAD EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED

Is this a clean install of Windows or one you migrated to this config?

Did you install the latest AMD chipset drivers directly from AMD?

Yes windows is a clean copy from the official bought USB with activation code. When installing the AMD driver, I got another BSOD again with a different error SYSTEM SERVICE EXCEPTION

Also, I've changed the video card and that didn't help at all. It's a Zotac GTX 1050 Ti

I would recommend you go to Microsoft and get a new version of Windows and re-install from scratch. Use the media creation tool to write to a USB drive and perform a full, clean install. Afterward, install the AMD chipset drivers, followed by the latest Nvidia video drivers.

I was just on my way to doing this. Thank you so much! I'll let you know how it goes! 😊

I was reinstalling windows and I got a BSOD while installing it from the boot USB. I have no idea what to say about this.

I retried with a different USB and I got another error. KERNEL SECURITY CHECK FALIURE. Why is this happening?!?

hardware problems. We need to test your memory your CPU your hard drives your SSD everything

Oh please guide me! I have no idea what to do at this point because there isn't an Operating System installed!

Well you could run memtest86 And verify the memory is OK by letting it run for four full passes. If you can pass that then the CPU and memory are probably OK

Yep but I don't have an operating system. Should I install one on an external USB?

You can install memtest on a USB and boot from that

I went through it and it aborted because of too many errors. There were thousands. It only tested the CPU.
