SO, this is my second time writing this my computer BSODd while in the middle of the other one, my computer just randomly started BSODing, I think it has something to do with a faulty ram stick, I have 16gbs, or a faulty driver. I have no idea how to find dump files so if you need one you might need to show me how to. I moved the ram sticks to the second channel in my mobo. The CPU Usage spikes when I have more than one program or even more the 3 tabs in chrome. The Memory goes till 17% than BSODs. I have done Memory Diagnostics and nothing has come up. I have installed all the driver updates I could think of, and Im going to finish quick before it crashes again. Oh, also I tried starting up games like CSGO and it is still good frames but the CPU Usage spikes to 90-100% then crashes.

SPECS - MOBO - Asrock H97M Anniversary
GPU- EVGA Geforce 750ti
CPU - Intel i5-4590
OS- Windows 10
Ram - PNY Xtreme 16gbs
HDDs - One reg HDD (contains games) and one ssd (contains OS)

is RAM 4x 4GB, 2x 8GB, or 1x 16GB?

if more than 1 module of RAM; try each stick separately in the 1st DIMM slot. then try the memory tests and whatever else may be causing the crashes with each stick 1 at a time.
if 1 of the modules causes the problems but others don't this should determine which is causing the problem.

if is only 1x 16GB module; it will be a little more difficult to determine. the easiest way is to borrow another stick from a different system and see if same issues occur. if system runs with no problem then your 1x 16GB stick is bad.
