Frequently getting blue screen

[OjoMeister]

Hello there! I'm here yet with another post this time i have a major problem so to say: I frequently get blue screen this is like the 6th time in 2 days. the error codes were something like "bad_pool_header","memory_management","bad_pool_caller" and some others.I currently have a i5 8600k stock on a z370m ds3h mbo with 2x8gb corsair vengence lpx 3000mhz. the ram comes stock at 2133mhz and i'v set it to 3000mhz. I currently went back to 2133 just to see if that is the problem. I ran the windows memory diagnostic and it said that nothing was wrong. the mbo sais that is capable of running ram at 3866MHz. i don't know if the frequency is the problem can anyone help me?

Did the problems go away when you put the ram back to stock speed? 

 

Also, I think you are a bit confused as to how memory speed and motherboard supported speed work. Your motherboard might support up to a particular speed, but it is ultimately your physical memory sticks that determine the speed that you can run them at. Check with your memory manufacturer as it is typically indicated on the packaging or their website the supported speeds that that particular set of ram can overclock to. If you only get these issues when overclocking your ram, then you shouldn't overclock it, or try dialing it back to a stable frequency.

Correction: If your ram says it can support up to 3000 then it should be fine running at that frequency, but like I said if the problems go away when you run at stock clocks then you might have to stick to a lower frequency. You can also contact corsair but they might not have much to say.
