I can go hours at a time with no issue, but the majority of the time, I play a game for 30 minutes and my computer will BSOD with errors like Clock watchdog error, service exception, etc. I am unaware of why this is occurring, but I think it may have something to do with my CPU. I have done tests and it has shown some of my CPU cores not working and then it will BSOD. I can browse the interenet and still have this issue occur.

Thank you in advance for helping

Thiscould point to hardware problem with your CPU but often also motherboardsoftware can cause this kind of BSODs.

In this case it's an internal unclassified error, which means it's notpublicly documented (which is ironic given it's "unclassified").However, yes, it's clear you're dealing with an internal CPU fault and not onethat could be generated by bus issues or any other external factor other thanheat and voltage. Though make dead sure motherboard software isn't interfering;sometimes mobo software will generate CPU faults of this sort because of bugsin their CPU drivers.
Other than that, no, there's really nothing else you can retrieve fromthis.

You have Asus smart doctor installed with drivers from 2010. Please uninstall and also if you have any other mobosoftware/overclock programs.
You said you already tested yor CPU and it has detected errors.
After removing above software please test your CPU again.

Please also update your Dlink Wireless adapter device.
