Hi,

So I'm actually here for the 3rd time with the same PC.

I was getting BSOD's very often I was told to buy new PSU. Which I did and my PC worked without problems for a week.

One by one I replaced almost every component (GPU,RAM,MOBO,PSU and tried to use different SSD and HDD) but the problem still continues.

The only component I havent replaced is CPU. So I disabled 2 cores, locked PCI and it somehow works now. (I'm not entirely sure what the PCI lock does but I read it had something to do with IRQ and my BSOD's were problems with too high IRQL so I thought i would lock it just in case).

I was testing it on simple FPS benchmark map in game (csgo) What i learned is that my PC works only with 2 cores. I'm getting BSOD's with 3 and with 4.


As for my question. Does this mean those 2 cores are broken? My CPU is not new but I'm pretty sure i never overclocked it so I thought it would last longer.

Thank you for help.
