Hello,
I've been having some issues with my computer ever since I've bought new parts, and I can't figure out if it's the components themselves, or if there's something worse. Here are the specs with the computer:
MB: MSi 890FXA-GD70
Processor: AMD Phenom II 2.8 GHZ Six-Core
RAM: 8 GB DDR3 G.Skill Ripjaws X
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560
730 Watt power supply
At first, BSOD would pop up at (literally) random intervals. My friends checked it out and everything was plugged in correctly. The only thing they could think of is that my RAM needed to be switched around. I had the RAM in slots 1 and 2 at first, so I switched the stick that was in slot 2 to slot 3. BSOD was no longer appearing at random intervals like before, but then it started acting up when I tried to play Skyrim, at which point it does one of two things: A) BSOD will pop up randomly and my computer will restart itself or B) I'll get stuck in the main Skyrim menu, unable to play the game. This is the only game that this is happening with. I'm wondering if my RAM isn't compatible with the motherboard I have, or if I should just move the RAM around again.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
