Hello, so I got completely new rig. But I got BSOD when I play for 5 mins. I reinstalled win 10, drivers and bios is up do date. Tried everything until I did memtest64. When installed both rams I did memtest and got errors. Yesterday u got like 714 errors with both. 

specs are:

i7700k

msi z270l gaming carbon pro ac

gskill trident z 16gb 2400mhz 2x8.

EVGA 600w non modular psu.

So I ran the memtest on both rams one by one and there was no errors. I ran them for 20 mins each , usually the errors occurred after 5 mins with them both together. Both was tested on the same slot, so the must be fine.
And when I wanted to test the other slot I realized that the 24 pin connector is pushing the ram aside softly maybe 5° (not hardly).
The backside of the 24 pin is a bit thick and the ram modules are also thick. PSU EVGA 600w non modular and drams are gskill trident z. Do you guys think this is the problem ? I haven't tested this slot alone yet but I think the connector may interfere the rams ?
Thank you20180709_125014.thumb.jpg.9607fcb0b20eb69e9398f6dcec8da88d.jpg

I don't think that would cause your problems; try using just one of the RAM sticks in the left slot and see if the errors come up again.

No, I've done worse and had no issues. Unless the RAM is bad to begin with, slight pressure like that won't cause issues.
