Hi, i have a custom made PC specs: 1.5 years old

i7 4790k with a stock cooler.

gtx 970 gigabyte g1

z97- pro gamer

16gb ram 1866 mghz 

w10 pro

 

Lately while gaming i started getting BSOD very frequent, i tested all my  hardware and is something like this:

GPU: max 80% *C no crashes

RAM: no crashes

CPU: 100% *C  on more then 80% load.

The BSOD Check code is : 0x00000124   From what i read is a CPU overheating issue  http://imgur.com/a/PIK80

 

Im not running any overclocks and my cpu dosen't crash while running PRIME95. I will let it run for a couple of hours to see. 

I only get crashes while playing Ark:Survival evolved/other games and doing something else on my 2nd monitor. (youtube/movie)

 

Should i be trying to make any changes or just swap the stock cooler. 

What Air/Liquid cooler you recommend, im not planning to overclock - I am thinking of 212 hyper evo. or a noctua on a same price range or cheaper.

Get a hyper 212 or a Cryorig H7, Best bang for the buck Air coolers. Definitely seems like an overtemp issue. When gaming, you get up to 100c you say?

Yep, and i checked all my BSOD files.. same  check code for the CPU overheat. I updated all my software before doing the tests.

My biggest answer is why i dont crash while running Prime95... maybe is a powersupply issue ? im confused Il run funmark at the same time
