Hello, I was wondering if my CPU or PSU could be causing my RAM errors. The only reason I ask is because I've used three different sets of RAM (apart) and replaced my MOBO once and my problem has persisted with RAM errors.
My problem is that my computer will freeze. Audio, visually, and USB ports. It is not Windows or drivers, as I've reinstalled them plenty of times. I also know that this build should work, as I have two friends who have the same exact build except we each have different RAM and different PSUs. We've installed everything driver and OS related the same. It has done this with two different GPUs, so it's not the GPU (same thing with the case, as I've seen people say the wires could be shorting).
This freeze is completely random. It's not overheating. It sometimes happens 10 seconds after I enter Windows or it sometimes wont freeze for hours on end. This extends over everything. It'll do it while gaming, browsing the internet, watching videos or sometimes, just sitting on the desktop, with nothing in the background.
As I said before, I've replaced my RAM three times and my MOBO once. The second set of RAM was replacements from CORSAIR for free (which is 2x4GB). I felt like they gave me the same exact sticks back but in a new package. So I went to Best Buy and bought one 4 GB stick from a different brand and my problem still persists.
I tested the first two sets of RAM and they both had errors. There's no point in testing this RAM because even if it did have errors, I would be very unsure that it would be the RAMs fault even though it's showing errors.
Sometimes instead of freezing until reboot, I'll also get BSOD messages pointing to RAM. Some of the codes are:
Any solutions would be really grateful. Please don't tell me to do something I've already mentioned doing here. As that may seem a little hateful or rude to say that, I've went through a lot of things trying to fix this problem. This problem has lasted 6 months almost now. And it brings me a lot of stress. I've also spent around $300 parts in replacement parts trying to fix this. I also have no way of testing i.e. using a different CPU or PSU without buying them. Which I might have to do this coming paycheck. Which is completely dreadful.
Please, please, any help other than what I've already mentioned would be the best thing in the world to me.
