A little more info would be helpful, build specs, age of computer, changes made recently. Since this is in the memory section, I'm assuming you believe the issue is memory related, what indication(s) do you have that leads you to believe memory is the issue? Have you run MemTest86 to check your memory, I'll suggest doing that.

does not matter about the bugcheck because you have windows 7 RTM and you need to install the service pack and its updates
before you can expect to not get a bugcheck. Too many fixes since 2009, and the system will break if you install a current version of a graphics driver.

Update and see if you still have a problem.

System specs: i7 3770k MSI GTX 770 2GB 8GB Ram Corsair 600W power supply Corsair h100 water cooler

Well I believe it's a power or memory problem because I use to have another brand GTX 770 and it was giving me nvidia kernel error crashes so I swapped it with a new MSI GTX 770. After I swapped it, I been getting blue screen of deaths when I played Archeage, but no BSOD's when I play league of legends. My GPU temps. seem normal (I cranked up the fans to 80% to make sure it doesn't overheat).

I will update my windows

Which Corsair 600? is it the CX model? That's their entry level and have seen them strain under load and cause things like this. Also are you OCed at all? if so CPU could be undervolted a bit -- and what model of DRAM ? Is it set and running at correct freq and timings? Also check the mobo and make sure you have the latest BIOS (and let us know what mobo model)

It is the corsair 600 CX model.
I was OCed to ~4.3ghz but I went back to default to try to troubleshoot this problem.

Also, if it helps the diagnostic, I am getting these random few second freeze lags on skype where I can't type and the buttons become unresponsive, but everything I type will be written after the freeze is done.

Do you have or could you borrow a different PSU to try? Preferably a 600 or better

You have to install the windows 7 service pack unless you use very old graphics drivers because win 7 RTM had a bug in how it attempted to use video hardware memory for its own buffer. New video drivers don't work around this bug anymore and windows 7 RTM will bugcheck in windows code if you use updated graphics drivers.

I will buy a new PSU and try it, but is it something wrong with my PSU? What makes you suspect it.
I updated all my windows 7 service packs already from my windows update.
