Windows 10: BSOD not often, but very random

A while ago I realized that my intel i7-9700kf wasn't boost clocking to ~4.9 GHz like it was advertised, but instead was locked at 3.6 GHz. Upon looking at device manager, I noticed I got yellow triangles around my processors, so I followed some guides which involved uninstalling and rescanning and whatnot and that managed to fix that issue and my turbo clocking was working as intended.


However recently I've been encountering some rather strange issues. It is not common, but every so often I'd randomly get a MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION BSOD, and I'm not sure where it's coming from. So far it has happened 3 times, once when I was sitting idle it suddenly crashed, once when I was reading something online whilst something was installing it crashed, and the 3rd, which is the only reproducible crash is whenever I launch a specific game, Assetto Corsa Competizione it crashes before I get to the main menu I tried a handful of games yet this was the only one that crashed.


I feel like it has to do with the turbo boosting, but I monitored CPU voltages and temperatures at the time of crashing at least with the game crashing and they were completely fine for the cpu. If I absolutely must I'd be willing to turn it off, but I feel like there has to be some other issue.


Ran Memtest, Intel CPU Diagnostic and other diagnostic tools and all came out clean.

Random BSOD while browsing internet


BitDefender is nothing special. mwac.sys causes BSODs anywhere.
A tiny documentation can be found here: Solved Random BSODs - Windows 10 Forums
In that very thread, the suggested action apparently worked.

The storage and network filters of any third party antivirus can cause BSODs. Neither MBAM nor BitDefender is any special. For a regular antivirus, it may be shifted to an alternative; but MBAM has no alternative. So a clean install of the said program is the most feasible first step.
As far as the first step is not failing, it is better to not think for the second step. Because the BSODs are not universal, failure at the first step is not universal; and success at the second step is also not universal.
That is why I posted that my suggestion may work, or may not. Let us see where it goes.

Sorry, Bitdefender is a problem: BSOD BAD_POOL_HEADER - mwac.sys - Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Help - Malwarebytes Forums

 

Random BSODs "Bad_Pool_Caller"


This BSOD happens anywhere, irrespective of BitDefender. It takes place even when the antivirus is MSE in case of Windows 7. The most common cause is an expired trial or a cracked installation. Some examples:

• Norton: Windows 7 Random bsod caused by tcpip.sys - Windows 7 Help Forums
• MBAM only: Epic BSOD error appears just after few seconds from boot Solved - Windows 7 Help Forums
• McAfee: BSOD on Internet Related Programs (tcpip.sys) - Windows 7 Help Forums
• Avast: Bad Pool Header 0x00000019 at random times - Windows 7 Help Forums
• Avira: BSOD randomly Crashes my Laptop and freezes at Memory dump 100 - Windows 7 Help Forums
• Crack: BSOD every 6 minutes, also recent freezes - Windows 7 Help Forums

We are on our way of troubleshooting. If the uninstallation and reinstallation does not work, we will take the next step.

I, in general, know what I am doing and what I am suggesting. If I feel that I am unable to control the issue, I will definitely ask for help.
