When playing battlefield 4 I can stay in-game for about 1min to 2mins, and then I get BSOD(system_service_exception). Or everything just freezes, no audio, and have to manually reset. Or "Battlefield has stopped working". Everything in the same timeframe 1-2 mins in-game. This has occured about 8 times the last hours. Started today. Can't play at all. No crashes while playing rocket league.

Been playing bf4 quite a while with this build, never had problems before. Today these things started to happen. No changes in hardware or software that I can remember. Been using plugin-free launch on the website. Tried switching to plugin-based launching, still problems. Tried different browser, nothing. Tried repairing game in origin, nothing.

UPDATE!
Tried launching Star Wars Battlefront two times, both times almost immediatly crashed with the BSOD: IRQL_GT_ZERO_AT_SYSTEM_SERVICE. Right after the game was done "connecting", never got to join a server.

Just updated the GPU drivers, BIOS is not up to date cause I like the version I have now. Been working like a charm for the last year or so. All other drivers are up to date, formatted the drive less than a month or so. Updated everything then. Like I said the games have been working fine up until just now.

Ok, then it would seem unlikely that it would be a software issue. So it's probobly a ram, motherboard or harddrive problem. Check your ram with memtest86 and drives with a SMART diagnostics tool.

RAM is pretty new, PnP that should set up properly. Just read on BF4 forum that the latest Nvidia driver caused a problem for some, with freezes and stuff. Gonna try to clean the GPU drivers with DDU, i'll get back to you about that.

If that doesn't cut it I'll do a memtest, what smart diagnostics tool?

Hope so, easy fix in that case. But sounds odd that a driver should give these problems. I don't know..
I'll check it out if the drivers doesn't fix it, thanks for the link.

So the drivers didn't fix it. All harddrives are OK, did the commandprompt thing instad of downloading the program. Checked out fine. Memtest I haven't tried yet. But skyrim had no problems running so I doubt it's the RAM... BF4 doesn't require that much, even with 1 stick not working 8gb should be more than enough. It might seem like only EA games are affected, could that be something to check out?

Got anything else? Getting desperate. Might do a clean install of windows or format a few drives if nothing else helps.

UPDATE
Took out my second monitor, removed my keyboards powersupply and everything else that I don't "need". Stayed 6mins in-game just now, no crashes. Might be solved.
