Question about RAM and bluescreens

Is it possible that my RAM is faulty even though memtest86 and windows  memory diagnostics show no errors at all?

 

I’ve been getting tons of BSoD lately to the point where i cant even use my PC anymore.

 

I went and looked up all the different symtoms of dying parts and RAM seems to be the only one that cause distorted graphics, other than GPU which i already confirmed to be fine.

 

i would give logs but i i get bluescreened or the PC freezes 20 seconds or so after logging in.

 

ive also done a reinstall of windows + a harddrive swap. So all im left with is CPU, motherboard, PSU or RAM and i just dont know what more i can try.

 

the error codes are different everytime but some ive got so far are:


IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

SYSTEM SERVICE EXCEPTION ntfs.sys

kmode_exception_not_handled
SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
Kernel security check failure

 

 

Any help would be super appreciated!!

Yes, very much so.

Can you boot to safe mode then?

 

Also,

post your system specs.

 

And,

how old is your PC? Have you cleaned the dust out of it?

Are all of the fans working?
