Windows 10 BSODs

[Mord2135]

Hi,

I upgraded Mobo, RAM, and CPU a few months ago and have started having some random bsods (IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, PFN_LIST_CORRUPT, MEMORY_MANAGEMENT, etc). Tried the usual checks using whatever default tools are in Win 10 like sfc, chkdsk, memory diagnostics but they all return ok but I still get bsods. I also updated the drivers and repaired the Windows installation with the Win 10 Media Creation Tool but still got the bsods.

I decided to use Memtest86 and found a whole bunch of errors. Just want to someone to have a look at the results to see which component needs to be fixed/replaced.

Specification:

• Mobo: Gigabyte Z370 AORUS Gaming 3
• CPU: Intel Core i7-8700K
• RAM: G.Skill Trident Z 8GB DDR4 x 2

RAM errors are normally caused by bad RAM.
