I recently decided to update my old HP Pavilion Elite E9000 with a new graphics card and RAM. I went with what I thought it could handle based on some research but have been having issues since the update. With games (Total War series mostly) the game client appears to crash randomly. Can go for hours without issue or can crash every 15 minutes. Also getting random Blue Screen with Memory Management errors while the computer is running. Can be browsing the internet and nothing else and this will happen.
Not sure if its overheating, if I need a new power supply due to the new graphics card and RAM, or if the new card or RAM are defective in some way.
Info on the system and updates below. Let me know if you need more info.
