Good day I have built a pc early in June Rampage 2 extreme Corsair TX-850 i7 920- 2.66Ghz eVGA GTX 260 (core 216)896mb OCZ Platinum DDR3 1333 6gb Everything was fine up until about a month ago. The computer reboots randomly with a blue screen. I have formatted and installed Vista. Same problem. Only this time the blue screen stays with physical dump. Formatted again, same with win 7. I resetted all bios settings and updated with the latest mother board and bios updates. The problem still occurs. Can any one please help?

Bummer, did you try reseating the ram and checking all electrical connections on board.
Sounds rediculous but unplugging and replugging each and every connection.
Check that the wires are fully seated in the connectors both visually and physically.
No possibility of shorting at any of the standoffs due to adjacent electrical pins in proximity?
Shouldn't happen thats all quality stuff :??:

Thank you very much!
I will do so in the weekend.
That sounds like a good reason why it will give problems.
I will let know if the problem still exists after unplugging and re-connecting everything.
Thank you for your response.
