So it all started a week or 2 ago, my PC started bluescreening (always another error) the one I had the most was "IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL" which I'm still getting every now and then at the moment.

I bought a new MOBO already, I have bought a new SSD to install my OS on, I have a new CPU, new PSU, the GPU is only 6weeks old and doesnt look like thats the problem anyway and i'm still having the same problems! Only thing that aint new is my RAM.

I have done multiple Memtests already, together, separate for a long time, no errors show up.
Most of the time the problem appears when I go into Intel Extreme utility and do a Memory Stress test. I've also tried doing this test stick by stick and together, using the worst stick gives me a bluescreen or PC shuts down, using the "good" stick gives me black screen for a few sec and massive lag or an error about my Nvidia drivers. Is it the ram? I have no clue tbh since it doesnt show any errors in Memtest.

Last night I installed my new MOBO and each time I boot up I get "Bios is Updating" even tho its already the latest version, my PC also gets stuck in the MOBO splash screen and with stuck I mean even after 2hrs its still just sitting there..

My CPU is about 3-4weeks old and I always get through stress tests with that, whole PC problem happens when im on default and also when im overclocked and is getting cooled by a NZXT Kraken x52.



Specs:
Intel i7 7700k
Asus Strix Z270E Gaming
Corsair Vengeance 2133Mhz
GTX 1080ti OC Strix
Corsair RM750X
 
3 weeks ago you got a new videocard, a week or two later you started having problems. Have you tried removing the videocard and using integrated graphics? Does the computer work normally if you do that?

What was your setup when this problem first happened? You've replaced quite a few components but that just makes troubleshooting harder. Can you recreate the computer as it existed when you first had your problem?

I meant 6weeks sorry about that. The problems came alot after i got the new GPU and the GPU runs fine, did alot of stress tests with it already and no problems.

First I had a i7 6700k and the mobo was a Z170 Pro Gaming, old GPU was a GTX 980ti strix. Reason why i changed my cpu was cus it was running super hot all the time and had to turn my voltage super low, so i decided to buy a new CPU but then I still had that old mobo so I was like why not buy a new MOBO.
