I'm sorry if this is in the wrong section, but I couldn't find a section for technical assistance so I thought that this would be the most relevant.
My Specs:
Case: Bitfenix Prodigy with one 230mm intake and one 140mm exhaust fan, both at max rpm while gaming
MB: Asus Z87-I Deluxe
CPU: 4770k @ 4.3ghz w/1.225volts (used the TPU setting on the board, adaptive voltage is on)
CPU Cooling: Xigmatek Dark Knight II Night Hawk Edition Heatsink w/ silverstone AP121 fan in pull configuration and IC Diamond 7 thermal paste
RAM: G.Skill Sniper 2x4gb @ 2133mhz
HDD: Western DIgital Caviar Black 2TB 7200rpm
GPU: EVGA GTX 780 ACX (Can't remember the clock speed, but it's the baseline model, not overclocked), fan speed is around 60%
PSU: Corsair TX 750w V2 non-modular 80+ Bronze
Anyway, I built this PC about a month and a half ago now and I've had about 4 blue screen errors since then. The first two times I figured it was because there were too many objects plugged in to the same outlet (TV, DVD player, and about 7 game consoles plus the PC) and the PSU was not getting enough energy. I checked the temps and the CPU was at about 60 degrees Celsius, I was playing DMC at the time. Both crashes happened within about 5 minutes of each other. This was about 5 weeks ago Moved the PC to a different room, and no problems until about a week ago.
This time I was playing Star Wars: The Old Republic when it blue screened again. Nothing really was happening on screen, as I was just standing around at the time. Checked the temps within the chassis and everything felt fairly cool again though I noticed that the PSU was warm. Computer restarted and I continued playing with no issues.
Then it happened again today in the same game as last week. Computer blue screened for no apparent reason and the only thing that felt warm was the PSU. I turned the computer upside down (to get a look at the PSU fan) and booted up furmark to stress the system a bit and the fan spun up just fine. All other fans in the system are running perfectly as well.
The crash log from today is posted at the bottom I wasn't sure what I needed exactly since I don't know very much about this kind of thing, so I got it from the event viewer. If there is not enough information in that log, I can upload the MEMORY.dmp log file as well, but it's about 620MB.
The only thing I can think of that I might have done wrong is the thermal paste, since this is my first build and I hadn't done that before. I used the "pea method" but I'm not sure that I used the proper amount. I'm planning on re-installing the heatsink and cpu to make sure that there aren't any problems, but I don't have enough time to do it right now.
The crash log is below, any assistance that you can provide is greatly appreciated!
