Do I need new RAM or a new Video Card ?
I ran the RAM checker on Win 10 & it says no
issues detected.
It's 2 sticks of 4 MB each .

Mother board is ASUS P8Z68-V/Gen3

Thank you !

So, technically I think your hardware should be able to run it. Can you verify that all your drivers are up to date? Can you also verify it is not overheating?

I update the Nvidia driver every 2 months or so.
I just updated it again today. I think it installed HD Audio today also.

I had MS re-instal the Operating system Win 10 1 month ago.
I dont know what other drivers I need.
Thank you.

Best guess is that unless your blue screen is saying RAM errors or some other hardware error, it's probably a heat issue. I would remove your CPU cooler, clean off old paste, reapply new paste, then try that. If it still blue screens, see if somebody will let you borrow some known good RAM for troubleshooting (doubt it's the problem, but possible). If still having the problem, try reinstalling Windows and your games. If after all that you still have issues, might want to swap the video card. Good luck, troubleshooting unknown issues is a pain in the ass.

Yes. I think Heating is an issue. I'll clean off old paste, & re apply new paste .
Thank you all !
