Hi to all!
firstly here is my configuration:
Intel i5 6600k at stock speeds
Asus Z170 ROG VIII Gene (latest bios 1504)
Corsair DDR4 16GB (2x8GB) 2400MHz (CMK16GX4M2A2400C14)
EVGA GTX980 SC (at stock speed)
I am experiencing random system freezes and BSODs. The screen locks up and the sound is stuck or it is just BSOD.
I already started a thread over at Tenforums and did a lot of troubleshooting but nothing really helped.
most of the time the issue happens while just browsing the internet, playing some flashgame in the browser etc.
it can randomly happen with listening to music with wmp or aimp or just while starting a portable application from usb drive.
it's really very random and unpredictable, that makes it very difficult to analyze - but the issue is there in the background all the time.
I'm running Windows 10 Pro and have the all the latest bios and drivers installed.
there is no manual overclock except the ram running on XMP profile at 2400MHz (instead of 2133Mhz).
how is it possible that Intel's Skylake can not handle ram at 2400MHz while Z170 chipset advertises speeds at >3000MHz.
Thank you in advance for the help and advices,
Sahin
