So I've spent the last 2 weeks trying to troubleshoot these constant BSODs I've been getting. Primarily while gaming and occurring after I bought and installed a GTX 1080 Duke. During these past 2 weeks I've run sfc /scannow, memtest, used the properties>tools to scan my hard drives, monitored all temps and voltage of GPU and CPU (nothing abnormal), used driver easy to make sure all my drivers were updated, using DDU to reinstall drivers, using DDU and changing the MoBo slot the GPU was installed in (i since moved it back to the primary slot since it still cause BSOD), updated my bios, did a windows reset (fresh install of windows including wiping hard drives), and even installed windows a second time from the microsoft website. None of the tests said anything was wrong and none of the updates/reinstalls helped. At this point I've already bought all the parts to put together a completely new computer when the parts get here but I need to find out what the cause of this problem is. Microsoft support and NVidia support were unable to help me and I plan on at least trying to sell my old parts used (preferably not any defective parts).
I don't have to software or knowhow to properly read memory dumps and that seems to me the only way for me to get more information from these BSODs. I have them shared on one drive here: https://1drv.ms/f/s!Ajt3_KPa-L4jj3qyf1oaFG9LFKtC. These aren't all of them because they seem to overwrite or at least get moved somewhere unknown to me. these are just a few of them. Some of them may also be dumps from crashing upon restarting after the initial crash. This seems to be common. I have some from the GTX 1080 and the most recent one is from the 970. Additionally they are all in "minidump" format. If you need kernal or another type let me know and I will provide it as soon as I can.
Just in case it helps my PC is a custom build.
OS: Windows 10 Home
MoBo: M5A99FX PRO R2.0
CPU: AMD FX-8350
GPU: GeForce GTX 1080 (this was the card when the BSODs started) I'm currently using my GTX 970. I sent the 1080 to MSI with an RMA form to be repaired...
RAM: Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600 C9 4x4GB (16GB total)
PSU: Cooler Master 1000W (exact make/model unknown)
The main problem ... the crashes continued after reinstalling my old 970 ... Every time I changed out my GPU i would use DDU.
