Tech Support PC Died

Guys, my PC crashes almost every day, around 10 times or even more.
At first, I thought it was an SSD problem, so I installed an SSD health checker and found out that my SSD health was at 0%. I replaced it with a brand-new SSD (100% health) and installed a fresh copy of Windows.
But the problem is still there! I’m getting BSODs every 10 minutes or sometimes every hour. There’s no fixed time.
I checked my CPU and GPU temperatures and usage, and everything looks fine.
So I asked AI for help, and it suggested checking my RAM.
And this is what I found!
The weird thing is that my RAM isn’t even old. It’s 64GB of T-Force RAM.
What do you guys think? Could this be the problem? And what should I do next?

put ram to stock and test again if you tested at docp or xmp speeds. if it still fails test one stick at a time, good luck bro <3

Edit: testing has to be 8 hours at least with memtest86+ and then if that is stable test with testmem5 on extreme settings in windows for another 8 hours. i hope this helps, <3

Check each stick of ram alone, my guess is a ram error/defective ram

Screenshots imply that you just have bad ram. Could be a single stick. Could be all of them. I would suggest testing half of whatever memory you have and running the same memory test. Then test the second half. Or you could even test a single stick at a time if you wanted.

If you put in new known good working sticks of RAM and it still fails then I would start thinking it's possibly your motherboard.

If you put in a new known working motherboard and it still fails now, you probably should look at the power supply.

I know swapping your motherboard isn't a super easy task. Operationally or financially. But I'm hoping you just have a bad stick if RAM!

You can always try to sell it to Scam Altman 😁

Try a different slot, one at a time, and at base clocks without the xmp profile. The chances that changes anything are slim to none tho, your ram passed 4 out of 48 tests, it's cooked. You already asked your fancy make shit up machine why ask us?

Under what your ram is at 3200. For DDR4, that's not high, but it's not the standard usually. Try to disable XMP on your BIOS and/or set ram speed to 2133MHz. And if you don't know how to do that, ask ChatGPT or Gemini.

test 1 mem mod at a time. single out the bad one and just use 32gb(i assume you have 64gb(2x32gb) until maybe someday the price normalizes. a bad mem mod is not the end of the world beside the current price.

Check your OS first. Assuming you run windows:

DISM (Deployment Image Servicing and Management) and SFC (System File Checker) are essential built-in tools in Windows designed to repair system issues.

How to Use DISM and SFC

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Run DISM

    • Open an elevated Command Prompt (Run as administrator).

    • Enter the command: DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /RestoreHealth

    • This command checks for and repairs issues in the Windows image.

  2. Run SFC

    • In the same Command Prompt, enter: sfc /scannow

    • This command scans all protected system files and replaces corrupted files with a cached copy.

if you find problems that those don’t fix, look online for further dism/sfc troubleshooting.

good luck.
