Memory Problem Help.

[BabyGroot69]

I was having BSOD errors quite frequently. I managed to fix the error by removing 16gb of ram and going back to the original 16gb I had before upgrading to 32gb. I was wondering if you guys think it is faulty RAM or RAM slots? The BSOD was kind of random and 32gb would work off and on so I am unsure. Thanks for taking the time to read.

what type of system are you running ( specs like cpu/gpu/memory speeds and brands, ETC) Have you checked the motherboards QVL to see if the RAM your trying to use has been tested in a 32GB configuration?

Which CPU, MoBo, RAM?

[BabyGroot69]

My specs are:

 

CPU: I7 7700K

Motherboard: Asus z270 Mark 1

RAM: 32GB Corsair Dominator Platinum 3000mhz

GPU: EVGA FTW 1080ti

PSU: EVGA 850W Supernova G2

OS Drive: Samsung 960 256gb

 

I am running the ram at 2133. QVL show up that it has been tested.

Are all the sticks of ram identical or are they two different sets?

Stop code? Specs? How old? Same voltage for kits? How often was the BSODs?

The stop codes varied but I managed to read two that said KMODE_EXECEPTION_NOT_HANDLED and PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA. Nothing ever said memory specifically. Both kits were ordered to match. I ordered one kit 2x8 and then ordered the exact same kit a few months later. BSOD happened quite frequent. During game and while watching simple browser videos. It even BSOD when just sitting on the desktop.

Ok was the timing correct on both sets?

I don't poke around in the BIOS when it comes to manually setting values. Everything was set to auto from the manufacturer. I can definitely reinstall them tomorrow and check.

Ok if the timings or CAS isnt correct look at a tutorial for changing the timing and CAS

Okay I will. I will let you know. Thank you!

I had to go out of town, sorry. I inserted the 16gb and checked the timings. They were correct. I also check with XMP enabled and they were correct again. I know this issue is what is causing my BSOD because I haven't had the extra 16gb in for a few weeks and I have had no issues.
