The BSOD leads me to think RAM, can you see what error does it give? If its memory related go back to standerd settings(under SPD if I recall correctly)

The thing is, with the DFI board, the default RAM settings are just as likely to cause BSODs and other problems. This is something that folks at DFI-street.com have acknowledge.

With Corsair XMS RAM, he shouldn't be having these problems.

And DFI boards tend to have problems with Corsair RAM. Since its XMS, he should be able to work them out. If it was Value RAM, he'd be fucked.

I do indeed have XMS ram, but the
only BSOD I've gotten was in Far Cry. Everything else is perfectly fine.
I'm willing to bet my comp just doesn't like Far Cry, because my memory timings are if any, quite conservative at the moment (3-3-3-8). And I know nothing is over heating; even during very stressful loads, like a 4v4 Winter Assault match with maximum graphics and 200 units running around, my cpu doesn't climb over 42c, and my GPU sits around 52c.
