My PC since building has randomly been crashing and BSOD'ing very frequently. I get different error codes almost every time. Sometimes, the PC will restart without BSOD'ing, and sometimes it will BSOD and not create a dump file which is really frustrating.

Here is my build:

CPU: AMD RYZEN 5 3600

GPU: EVGA GEFORCE RTX 2070 Super

RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO DDR4 3200MHz 2x8GB

MOBO: MSI B450M Gaming Plus

Storage: Samsung 860 EVO 1 TB

PSU: Corsair RMx (2018) 650W

Wifi Card: TP-LINK TL-WDN4800 PCIe x1

Here are some of the error codes I've seen (there are certainly more from my PC crashing while away):

1. KERNEL_AUTO_BOOST_LOCK_ACQUISITION_WITH_RAISED_IRQL

2. KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE

3. SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

4. KERNEL_AUTO_BOOST_INVALID_LOCK_RELEASE

5. SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION

6. SYNTHETIC_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT

7. DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION

8. SECURE_KERNEL_ERRORWhat failed: Ntfs.sys

9. KERNEL_THREAD_PRIORITY_FLOOR_VIOLATION

10. KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

11. APC_INDEX_MISMATCH

12. DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUALWhat failed: storport.sys

13. FAST_ERESOURCE_PRECONDITION_VIOLATION

14. DRIVER_OVERRAN_STACK_BUFFER

15. PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREAWhat failed: win32kbase.sys

16. ATTEMPTED_TO_WRITE_READONLY_MEMORYWhat failed: ndis.sys

17. HYPERVISOR_ERROR

18. KERNEL_LOCK_ENTRY_LEAKED_ON_THREAD_TERMINATION

19. KERNEL_MODE_HEAP_CORRUPTION

20. MULTIPLE_IRP_COMPLETE_REQUESTS

21. IRQL_GT_ZERO_AT_SYSTEM_SERVICE

22. IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

23. SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTIONWhat failed: nvlddmkm.sys

What I've tried:

1. Tried updating all the drivers and BIOS

2. Ran Memtest and Windows Memory Diagnostic on RAM (0 errors)

3. Switched RAM slots and tried using one stick at a time (same behavior)

4. Tried switching PSUs with a friend's PSU (same behavior)

5. Tried switching GPUs with a friend's GPU (same behavior)

6. Ran Checkdisk and Samsung Magician for my SSD (0 errors)

7. Clean installed Windows (right now, only drivers are installed)

8. Ran driver Verifier and found 0 errors. The last couple BSODs happened during the running of the verifier, which may or may not be related.

9. Disabled XMP and increased DRAM voltage by 0.05V. (Decreased after no behavioral change)

10. Booted in safe mode

11. Ran stress tests and found that temperatures did not exceed my maximum CPU temperature. Crashes were not correlated to any stress tests.

12. RMA'ed my MOBO. MSI reflashed it and said there were no issues.

13. Ran DDU uninstaller in safe mode to clean install my audio and GPU drivers.

14. All the events are Kernel-Power 41 events with EventLog 6008

When I check BlueScreenViewer to view my dumpfiles (5 most recent), ntoskrnl.exe is the common culprit behind all of them, but two of them also have nvlddmkm.sys highlighted as well.

I've been troubleshooting this for quite a while, and I'm not sure how to pinpoint the issue. Anyone else seen anything like this before? I feel like even GeekSquad would have trouble figuring out what's going on here.

Thanks
