Hey guys I've had a problem with my system where it blue screens and shuts down/restarts randomly, sometimes even freezing completely during games. I had the MB replaced but still, it blue screens and freezes. The repair shop I took to who originally fitted the board advised maybe the CPU is at fault, I am taking it back tomorrow for another test.
Stressing the system I noticed on prime95 blend it quickly shows cores failing with normal temps but I tweeked some bios settings and I've tested for 3 hours twice, no errors. Currently 5 hours into an 8 hour test, no errors so far. However, the system still blue screens most days, usually during games or an hour or two afterwards. My GPU also bugged and was stuck at pcie x1 and giving terrible FPS until I reseated it thought not sure if this is related? Getting some pixels and artifacts on the screen for some video playback too but its rare.
Do you think my CPU is faulty like the technician has said? I've heard its extremely unlikely. They have also said RAM, PSU and HDD were okay but I really don't know. My gut instinct is that its not the CPU because no errors on prime95.
Any feedback much appreciated, cheers.
