I bot my 2 pcs of RAM from amazon, so i just told them the one of the pc DOA, they send me replacement (a pair).

Ended up the new replacement, one of the pc also DOA, heng one is working fine, so one from new and one from original shipment working good.

Crucial Ballistix RAM, first time buyer, gg to stop using the brand. Will go back to kingston, my previous RAM for next purchase.

Will be monitoring this thread. I have almost the same type of issue like TS. The stupid thing is that after encountering the BSOD (usually on high load) and restart the PC, it will never happen again unless I shut down and stopped using the PC for a while until my next session of PC usage.

Tried whatever I know and that was suggested in google except changing RAM (no extras), PSU (no extra), mobo (no extra + mafan)

If high load crash most probably it's the thermal paste need to reapply. As it might be dried up or maybe some other overheating casinwg it to crash.

if u can try download any cpu stress test software and see if stress test will get blue screen or not.

The last time I checked, temps are decent during high load. About lower 80s? If thermal paste is the problem then the BSOD should have happened again after the restart..

So my "workaround" all these years is to never shut down.

What causes DPC Watchdog Violations?

Several things can cause a DPC Watchdog Violation to be triggered in Windows 8. One of the most common is an SSD drive that has old firmware not supported by Windows 8. Another likely cause is an outdated driver for one of your hardware components. For example, if your sound card driver does not support Windows 8, simply plugging in a set of headphones could produce a DPC Watchdog Violation error. While not as common, software installations that affect your system software could also lead to DPC Watchdog Violations and the corresponding blue screen of death.

How do I fix DPC Watchdog Violations?

If the errors are hardware related, the best thing to do is update the firmware of your components and the associated drivers. Firmware and driver updates are usually available in either the Support or Downloads section of most hardware manufacturers websites. If the errors are software related, you can either reinstall the program(s) you may think may have started producing the errors or use Windows' "System Restore" function to fix potential system software issues.

If you have tried the above options and you still are experiencing DPC Watchdog Violation errors, you can use "Action Center," a control panel available in both Windows 7 and Windows 8. This panel displays important system messages and provides recommendations on how to resolve problems. If you still have errors after using Action Center, they may be caused by faulty hardware. If this is the case, you may need to have your PC examined by a technician who can diagnose what component needs to be replaced.
