Blue particles on screen using apu

Well I am using a A6-5400k in a freenas build and lately I have been noticing it going offline randomly, I plugged in my monitor to see what was up and the computer was frozen with blue particles showing.

 

I thought this was my under volt being unstable, so i restored it to default clock speed and settings and something is still causing it. Any ideas?

My Setup:


CPU: I7-3930k @ 4.5GHz | Cooling: Corsair H100 in PP /w NF-F12 | MOBO: Asus P9X79 WS LGA 2011 | RAM  32 GB Mushkin Redline @  2133  | GPU:  (2) Sapphire 7970 GHz 6G edition | Case:  NZXT Switch 810 | Storage: Raid 0: Mushkin ssd total 480 GB | PSU: XFX ProSeries 1250W


Displays: (3) Acer GD235HZbid (120 hz) with a Ergotech Triple Monitor ArmStand /w telescoping wings | Keyboard: Xarmor black backlight mechanical with cherry blues | Mouse: Roccat Kone XTD  | Sound: Logitech 5.1 Z-5500 and Astro A-40's

I agree with the RMA.

 

You can also try reseating the CPU and heatsink, updating the bios/drivers, or bargaining with a BSOD gremlin (often tricky and dangerous, use caution). 

 

In all seriousness if none of the above fixes it....RMA the chip.
