Motherboard or ram issues

semend · Jun 25, 2013

Hi. I am having issues with my pc. 2 days ago it started getting random reboots without any blue screens or errors. Driver updates did not help. Temps are all good. I decided to check my ram. Removed 1 of the sticks and PC worked for 20 hours straight without crashes and then crashed again. When I move my RAM sticks in the other slots, the system works longer without crashing but eventually crashes anyway. Is that a motherboard issue or RAM issue?
Thank You!
Specs:
core I5 3570k
8GB Corsair Vengeance
evga gtx 670
gigabyte z77x-UD3H
corsair tx 750

seems like a ram and motherboard issue. Get a new 2gb stick and test, if it crashes again, then the motherboard is faulty.

Have you tried MemTest. It's a memory testing software, free to download. Simply burn it to a cd and boot from cd and do some tests. You'll be able to narrow out the problem. Try one stick at a time in all of the slots, that way you can also rule out the motherboard slots

Look at your windows error log make sure it not the power supply dipping or shutting down. Use hardware monitor and look and log your power supply outputs. One thing to check is do you have any program set to run then shut the of off when done???

smorizio :

I dont rly understand what you mean by "shut the of off"
BTW I do not get BSOD when it crashes but once its rebooted its show BCC Code 116.
I uploaded my minidump files, if someone could plz take a look on them. http://www.fileswap.com/dl/vo1JVfknKr/

I am not sure how you want me to log HW monitor data because its fine until it crashes , but this is how HWM data looks right now http://www.fileswap.com/dl/YndQ7JU3nX/

I dont . Could you plz recommend one ?
BTW today I left my PC on with Metro Last Light running and no crashes for like 9 hours, once I came back and started doing something on PC myself it crashed in like 20 min. Maybe this info will be useful.

How long did you run memtest for? I had a similar problem once upon a time ago with an MSI board. All of a sudden my pc dind't post. I simply swapped the DIMM's into the other DIMM slots on the board, surely enough it worked for a bit then craped out again and was back to square one. But if you conclude that your RAM is ok, then I say it's your MOBO

well as i said earlier, the best way to check is by removing one stick and checking with the other, just try it once
