    What is causing this BSOD?


    Recently I've started suffering the BSOD linked below occasionally. Occurs perhaps once or twice every 3 days. I haven't really made any major changes recently so I'm at a bit of a loss as to what can be causing this. https://1drv.ms/u/s!AoI-zaLMdVJcg9lki2YvZ5Vf5Wl1_Q?e=nQCd3dSystem InfoGPU: RTX 3070 8GB Zotac Twin Edge OCCPU: AMD 5900x Default settingsCPU Cooler: Scythe Fuma 2Motherboard: MSI MAG x570 Tomahawk Wifi - BIOS version: AGESA 1.1.9.0RAM: Crucial Ballistix 32GB Kit 2 x 16GB DDR4-3600 CL16 Desktop Gaming MemoryPSU: Silverstone 850W Gold - ST85F-GSOperating System & Version: WIN

    BSOD Hardware Caused???

    they do weird things like that, which all seem like something else is failing.
    One of the worst things to diagnose, they seem to only quit when they want to.

    Memtest is a good next step, if you rule out RAM and Power Supply make sure you disconnect all unnecessary peripherals and try to start the system with as little hardware as possible, if it works then, you can narrow down the culprit by trial and error.

    the follow was taken from some website:

    It's very difficult to determine if a failure is caused by the CPU because many other components can cause the same symptom when they fail.

    1. System fails to boot
    2. System re-boots intermittently
    3. General Protection Fault
    4. Illegal Operation
    5. Stop Error, or BSoD (Blue Screen OfDeath)

    Actually, CPUs rarely fail, and about the only way to determine if the CPU is causing the failure is to swap it out with a known working CPU of the same type and speed. Since this is difficult, the best bet is to first rule out every other possibility.

    Before suspecting the CPU, rule out all the possibilities listed below.

    1. The Operating System
    2. A peripheral port device
    3. A bad memory module
    4. The hard disk drive
    5. The power supply
    6. The motherboard

    If you have ruled out out all the other possibilities, investigate the items listed below.

    1. Overheating
    2. A short circuit
    3. ESD

    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.

    BSOD Hardware Caused???

    It is not overheating - CPU runs 60*C in games.
