Windows 10: Random BSODs caused by ntoskrnl.exe

Is XMP in the BIOS enabled?

 

Axe0,

I have XMP disabled in my BIOS and my RAM static configured at 1600mhz, 9-9-9-24, 1,5V

 

The specs of your memory states that the SPD (standard) is 1333MHz where with XMP enabled it is 1600MHz, hence why I asked *Smile

I assume you're not overclocking anything else, CPU, GPU?

Hi axe0,

I've updated my system specs.

Are you sure about the memory? Because on the box it says 1600mhz

Attachment 98363

My CPU (4,3ghz, 1,255 volt, adaptive voltage) and GPU (core: 1100hmz, 1575 memory) are overclocked since I've had this PC from december 2013, had no problems with it till couple of weeks ago.
Also maybe important to mention is that some weeks ago I've upgraded my RAM from 8gb to 16gb.
I can try without the overclocking to see if bsod's still exist, but that would be strange since my pc is running like this for almost 3 years.

Kind regards,
Jens

Overclocking is a common cause with BSODs.
I could ask, why wouldn't overclocking be the cause? That you ran your system 3 years with the overclock may only confirm that your system cannot handle the overclock anymore. In a matter of time the system's performance is going backwards, overclocking shortens the timespan of the part and ultimately causes problems.

 

Setting the RAM to 1333mhz seems to have solved the problem. With 2 DIMMs set at 1600mhz, it was working fine for 3 years, but with 4DIMMs it caused random bluescreens.
I'll wait a week and if no bluescreens happen, i'll mark the thread as solved.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction axe0!
