Hi, so my PC died and i'm no expert in computer parts, but i have tried all i could to solve my pc problem; "NMI_HARDWARE_FAILURE". More details here: http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-3629096/black-screen-parity-error-blue-screen-nmi-hardware-failure.html
Things that i have did:
Try new power source
Removed HDD
Reseat everything
Boot without GPU
Update BIOS
Memtest

My conclusion is that there has to be something wrong with the PSU or Motherboard as this PC have multiple problems in the past related to Psu and motherboard.

Specs:
Specs
i5 4460
Asrock H81M-HDS R2.0
Kingston 8GB Ram
Samsung 850 Evo 250GB SSD
WD 1TB Blue HDD
MSI Gtx970 Armor 4GB
Super Flower Leadex 550w psu
Sharktoon T28 case

If there is any other troubleshoot i could do, OR, anything else that i can do to test the different parts of the pc and find out which component is faulty, please do let me know.

If not, please advice me on which component to change/upgrade and to which one that is compatible with my current set up.

Thanks !

^That's not a good psu.

Ur super flower leadex is actually a solid albeit a bit old psu. If you can try that out in ur friend's pc and confirm if it's working, u can use that.

Or if you feel that it's old and it's better to get a new one, tell us ur location and budget for the new parts.

Ur gpu, hdd and ssd can be reused. U can use the same case, but I would suggest getting a new one.

If the problem is with the PSU i would upgrade to the EVGA 600 BQ but finding a compatible motherboard, good luck! Seeing that you have have BSOD in the past i would think it is the power supply, i will link the PSU listing below.
