Hi seniors,
Primarily I'm experiencing BSOD every 5-7 minutes of BF4 playing time. The screen can go pink, blue, red and white.
Previously I was able to play without any issues at all, like last week and that's when the BSOD started to haunt me.
Ive updated my Nvida drivers, backrolled, memtest and cleaning up my RAM but no avail. I would really appreciate if any help can be rendered here.
My PC specs are as below;
Attached below is my error message;
This is my dump file;
Have been using this PC to play and really frustrated by the BSOD. It seems the driver is the issue here or can PSU be the culprit too?

You can troubleshoot most symbol related issues by turning on symbol loading diagnostics (!sym noisy) and repeating the command that caused symbols to be loaded.
You should also verify that your symbol search path (.sympath) is correct.
