Howdy, as the title says I've been getting blue screens during peak loading and off peak loading of both CPU and GPU usage. Temperature levels are reading normal (~34C for CPU/MOBO and ~45C for GPU during peak). Fresh install of Windows was done not long ago due to the increasing events of BSOD after upgrading graphics card and RAM. Graphics card was replaced due to a faulty fan which was thought to be the initial culprit, however since it was increasing in frequency. It became to the point of once every 2 hours so Windows 7 fresh install was done.
Since installation it has been running smoothly until tonight, where it has BSOD twice within 5 hours with similar or same messages as previously recorded. First time posting here so please let me know if I have missed a step out.
Have read previous posts and followed steps as seen so will be unable to determine if working as intended or errors still occurring. However as a safety I am attempting to give all information I can in regard to the issue. If I missed something I do apologise.

This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem. This might be a case of memory corruption. More often memory corruption happens because of software errors in buggy drivers, not because of faulty RAM modules.
