I just got a new pc i built using newegg, and about every 2-3 hours i get a blue screen. It has been quite a few different stop codes.
My parts are: AMD phenom II 4x 965
Saphire Radeon 6850
Antec 550w psu
MSI 970a g46 motherboard
GSkill Ripjaw 8g (2x4gb)
I have updated the drivers and reinstalled windows twice. Im still getting the error

My suggestion is to run prime 95 and torture test the CPU and then the RAM (not simultaneously with the blend test). If that passes without any errors then run furmark for as long as you can, any artifacts and I suspect your video card to be defective.

Dude I just bought basically the same thing from new eggs except with 4 gb ram and an hd 7770. What do you think of it when it actually works and what do you think of the ripjaw x ram series?
