So, this started happening after I upgraded from 4770k to 4790k (or at least I think it started then, can't exactly remember), I keep getting BSoDs or blackout resets (Screen goes black and then resets the entire computer), I'm not sure what's causing this.
I've re-installed my Windows and it still does that (I re-install my programs immediately every time I re-install my Windows, so program could still be an issue), this is driving me crazy cause this is happening almost every day.
And yes, I have updated my BIOS before even installing that new processor, and I'm sure that they're compatible.
(It's an ASUS Z87-PRO by the way.)
I did an SFC /scannow, nothing unusual pops up.
I did an overnight memtest (memtest86+), no errors (7 passes?).
I've reseated the RAM, still does that.
