RAM issues and BSOD
Hello, I built my computer in the beginning of February and everything worked wonderfully for the first 2 months of use. However, I began to have issues with blue screens and video games crashing randomly yet consistently (if that makes sense) starting on April 5th. Since then, I have had many BSODs while gaming and simply browsing on Google Chrome. My blue screen errors have included memory_management, page_fault_in_nonpaged_area, and critical_structure_corruption. I have tried several “solutions” that I found online. I have updated every driver, reinstalled almost every program, updated my BIOS, updated my chipset drivers, audio, even lighting control drivers. I have also run Windows Memory Diagnostic Tool, which immediately results in “hardware problems detected.” After that, I ran memtest86. I have attached my summary and specs below. I would really appreciate any input.
specs:
Ryzen 5 3600 (@3.6gHz)
16gb DDR4 3200mHz OLOy Warhawk RAM
MSI B450 Tomahawk MAX motherboard
EVGA RTX 2060 Super XC Ultra
Thermaltake Smart 600W PSU
I am using the Windows Balanced power plan (was previously using Maximum Performance).
I am also on Windows 10 version 10.0.18363.
