I've been having a lot of issues recently with crashes, most often programs crashing to the desktop, sometimes crashing straight to a reboot, no blue screen showing. Revit (architecture), battlefield 4, and Age of Wonders 3 have been big culprits. I've turned down the graphics to low and been playing BF4, but while the desktop crashes are less, it still just crashes to the reboot. I've figured it may be the RAM, but I don't know if it is maybe my GPU or heat or my PSU or something? I'm running the following system:
i7-3770K 3.5GHz
ASUS P8Z77-V Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600MHz
EVGA GTX 670 2GB FTW Edition
integrated audio
800 watt PSU
The GPU and processor should be OC'd a little but, honestly (some shame here) I just bought it and had them do it, so I never checked. I'm awful at these things.
Anyways, I did this Memtest with these results, http://imgur.com/XQ8dhpe [1] , so I assume the RAM is the issue? I can't really analyze though, so maybe I'm wrong. If so, getting new RAM, do I need to get 1600 again, or can i get something high end like 2400, and how much of a difference will that make? This is new ground for me, but I figure I may as well get the best I can, within reason, while I'm upgrading.
