Hi!
I'm glad I found this website; I hope you guys will help me with a year-old problem.
At the start of 2019, I finished assembling a computer with the following specifications:
* Ryzen 7 1800X
* MOBO ASUS PRIME X370-PRO
* Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x8Gb CMK16GX4M2B3200C16
* Samsung SSD 970 EVO 250GB
* PSU EVGA Supernova 750 G3
Since then, I've experienced an abnormal quantity of BSODs both while playing videogames as well as just using my PC normally. Later I found out I didn't have all the drivers updated and with the help of those classic "update all your drivers" Softwares, I managed to solve that problem (I guess). Well, the BSODs are now not as frequent, but they still occur too much. Eventually, I started getting some related to memory and I found out one of my 8Gb memory sticks was faulty; since then I removed it and I'm still in the process of asking Corsair for a replacement. Nevertheless, the frequent BSODs still occur, not to mention videogames crashing all the time no matter which I play. Theses BSODs come in a variety of forms: some times is the NVIDIA driver crashing during a game, some times is some random stuff. And now I don't know if I'm still having driver problems or if my problem is hardware.
Some things to notice here:
* The memory I'm using is not formally compatible with my MOBO. I bought it because my Noctua NH-D15 required small memory sticks and the other options were too big. Moreover,
this link suggests my particular type of memory is actually bad to be used with Ryzen, but apart of the BSODS, I'm not having any problem related to the memory; for example, I managed to use it at full 3200MHz.
* While searching for solutions in the web, I discovered the "Driver Verifier" utility. Then I ran it in some suggested configuration and with that on, I was incapable of accessing W10 again; it just wouldn't start. Later I found out this was precisely DV telling some of my drivers was faulty; the problem is I didn't know how to solve it, not even how to detect which was the faulty driver, so I just pretended I didn't see it ^^
* Because of the need to ask for Corsair for a replacement, I bought a new 8Gb 2400MHz CMK8GX4M1A2400C16 and it is still under the 7 days period which I'm able to send it back to the seller without a problem. So if by any means the resulting conclusion is: "your problem is memory and you're gonna have to choose a non-Corsair replacement", it would be great if I could solve the mystery quickly before the 7 days expire.
* Some times, after a BSOD, a memory dump is not created: even this is eventually crashing! xD
Finally, links for memory dumps of some of the lastest BSODs:

* CS GO Crashes:

Any help solving these problems will be very appreciated! And if somebody suggests running Driver Verifier again, please send me some guidelines. Different websites tell different ways of configuring it and that makes me lost :T
