So I have been bsoding with win10 regularly and as much fun as it may sound I have been secretly monitoring my system for clues to make it stop.
Ive begun to suspect one of my 2 GPUs is corrupting my system somehow. The bsods were usually IRQL error messages, but less often also cache malfunction errors and even more rarely other random errors I think I've cleared after following advice from u guys. Used to be lots of usb and com error in the mix but thats mostly stopped after changing some com server permissions.
Bsod happens reliably every 3-6 hrs still, though back2back bsod is not all the infrequent either, and is also not coo at all.
Memtests and sfc scans were all clear. But recently I started doing some processing using Nvidia opencl api and my system started to freeze black for a long few seconds or lag freeze frame like then pop out of it by minimizing all open windows and vise versa.. the GPUs would process in opencl but it was like they really didn't want to and we're throwing tantrums.
Most troubling was the bsods became even friendlier and would visit every hour or so. I don't know why it's gotta frown like some Microsoft e-thug. But my system has lotsa fans and the room I keep it in is usually chilly as well.
But what i would most like to know is why this hadn't become evident from graphics processing in premiere or during other moments of GPU time.
I also noticed these things were less severe when my case was left open leading me to guess that overheating is relevant somehow. Is it safe to o blame a faulty GPU for this or is could it be more involved?
How can I determine which GPU to rma without pulling one out? They are not easily removed in my setup and without the neighbor GPUs body heat im not sure either one will bug solo.
Also, the bsods became a lot more severe after putting a win10 creators update on a while ago and hasn't gotten better at all since doing a roll back.. do I need to reset windows before looking into hardware?
VMware workstation also makes more bsods.
I know I have a lot of questions, and I thank you for reading this far. I'm usually pretty good at troubleshooting but I haven't been able to crack this for months now.
Hardware: 2x msi gtx 1080, 128gb ddr4-3000 Corsair dominator sdram, Intel i7 6950x, asus x99-e ws, Samsung 960 nvme m.2 card, a WiFi and bridged Ethernet pcie cards from Intel, & between 4-6 spinny hdd drives depending on the day
