So i was playing a game and got 4 blue screens and a few corrupted files, hard drive was fine so i ran a memtest and i got 289 errors. I tried to pinpoint which stick is it but i got no errors then i tried with both and again no errors so i got into another game, same thing and the only thing i could think of is that my ram sticks are overheating.I also got a new cooler and im wondering if thats the issue or is my ram kicking the bucket?

Errors only show on memtest after a gaming session ends in a bluescreen

try to check the temperatures of the ram

I Use my knowledge as business owner and self taught technician aswell as an AI to help people. AI might be controversial but it actually works pretty well 90% of the time.

Well tbh this will sound stupid but when i got the blue screen i took off my panel and touched the ram xd and it was definetly hotter than it was when it was doing the memtest

So recently I started receiving a lot of blue screens for an unknown reason, I got a new CPU cooler (Pure Rock Slim) but I don't think that should be the issue.

I also overclocked my GPU (RX 580) using amd's software so it did it automatically but the blue screens started maybe a day or two after the overclock.I also want to add that my rx 580 is a pretty cheap one but the overclock was only 75hz over the stock one.

Also i ran a few memtests and my ram showed 7k errors but only after a gaming session that resulted in a blue screen. i ran another one but this time after i let it cool down and it showed no errors

I turned off my gpu overclock and changed the fan curve but i still get blue screens.

So i dont know how to fix the problem because i dont know what exactly it is

Extra info:

After some blue screens i got some corrupted files i ran a smart test on my hard drive and it showed no errors

The blue screens are always different 

The amd driver that i have installed on my gpu is 20.4.1

the games that i have received blue screens on are csgo and overwatch (i havent tested any others)

also i have terrible air flow in my case because ive got only one back exhaust fan

install hardware info and monitor the VRM temperatures. and generally if the motherboard isn't working it will let you know by just totally now working. 

What temperature range is good for a motherboard?
