Hi.
In December I bought a new computer (built it by myself at home) and I have been struggling with BSODs since then. I ran several system checks, tried to re-assemble the whole pc, but it didn’t help.
The configuration is the following:
-Intel Core i5 6500 CPU
-Noctua NH-D14 Cooler
-2x4GB DDR4 Crosair Value Select (2133) RAM
-ASRck H170 Pro4S Motherboard
-2GB Gigabyte GTX 950 WindForce 2x OC VGA
-600W ThermalTake TR2 Challenger 80+ PSU
-240GB Crucial BX200 SSD
-2TB WD RED HDD
-Windows 7 64Bit Home Edition OS
The most demanding games I run is Diablo 3, Elder Scrolls Online, and Hots.
I installed the latest drivers for every component, I updated the Windows but it keeps freezing at random times. Usually I can play for hours, then suddenly I get a bsod or the simply Windows crashes. After the first crash it keeps crashing for several times, then I can use it again for some time… Once it also crashed whilst I was in the bios.
The messages were the following:
-A process or thread crucial to system operation has unexpectedly exited or been terminated
-system service exception
-system thread exception not handled
-memory_management
-IRQLNOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
-CACHE_MANAGER
-Also, I can't update the bios (the Flash version wouldn't recognize the update file, and the Windows version just simply doesn't work)
I already tried these solutions:
-First I checked the temperature of the CPU: during load the maximum temperature was only 45-50 C°.
-Then I ran a memtest, it ended up with 0 errors.
-I checked the temperature of the VGA: I got ~77C° during games, so I used the oc tweaker, and set the manual fan speed to 100%. I got 70C° during games.
-Tried to remove the VGA and use the Intel IGP, got the same errors.
-Also tried to put the VGA into another PCi slot, the same errors occurred…
Since it crashed in the BIOS, I think it could be a hardware fault. I think the motherboard’s faulty, but I’m not sure. Any ideas?
Every help would be appreciated.
