Z77X-UP7 ( New )
Corsair Vengeance 8GB 2133 Mhz ( dual )
Samsung EVO 250GB
Seasonic 660XP

After I upgraded my motherboard ( Z77X-UD3H ) I started getting bsods, it seems to happen most when gaming.

And yes, I reinstalled W7 x64.

I'd love to run memtest, but it hangs here.

Something doesn't seem right.

I am also unable to upload any .dmp or .7z files ( wtf? ), best I could do.

As far as I know defragging ssd's are a bad idea and don't help at all ( correct me if I'm wrong ).

Running chdsk right now.

You don't need to run CHKDSK or defrag a SSD. doing so may shorten the SSD's life... Get into the bios under Advanced Frequency Settings , under CPU Core Settings and disable C3, C6 stepping and any CPU thermal monitor settings. Doing this should stabilize the computer

Okay, You may have other issues. The changes in the bios are primarily for game play stability... I have the same chipset and found these settings by trial and error...
 
It seems to happen most often when I transition from high load to low load ( finish bf4 match and quit / quit titanfall ).
 
Ok... It worsened now. Every half hour while playing BF4 the entire system freezes. Whenever it happens I hear that sound I hear when windows boots in my headset ( *kapoof*, Vengeance 1500 ).


I have yet to see it crash idle though.

I've slightly lowered the memspeed to 2000 Mhz in the hopes that fixes it.
 
I have 14.1, I know because I manually installed it :p

Lowering memory to 2000 Mhz didn't fix it.

I selected legacy boot mode, I'm going to try again.
 
Okay I just wanted to make sure

Go ahead and reset these values to their default values
