    Evening all. I have been getting issues with my new build.
    I keep getting BSODs?
    "system thread exception not handled"
    "exception on invalid stack"

    I have attached the mini dump if someone can take a look?

    What's the full spec of your PC? Was it a clean install?

    Clean install of windows 10 1st but kept getting the BSODs so then re-formatted and installed windows 11 but still had the same issue. I used my old GPU (RTX3090), PSU (BE-QUIET 1000W), WD Blue NVME and bought new the following.
    Gigabyte Z790 AORUS ELITE AX DDR4 ATX Motherboard
    CORSAIR Vengeance RGB PRO 32GB DDR4 3600MHz CL18 Desktop Memory - Black x2
    Corsair iCUE H150i ELITE RGB 360mm Liquid CPU Cooler
    The CPU i bought used which is a 12900k
    Hope this helps

    Did you update the UEFI when you put it together? Is the RAM two sticks of 32GB or four sticks?

    Ok, unset XMP and run it at default RAM settings for testing. 4 sticks can often cause issues, especially when run at full speed.
    You could also run MemTest86 at both default and XMP settings.

    I also did mean did you update the UEFI. BIOS hasn't been used for years ;)

    Memtest didn't show anything. Reseated everything and still bsod. Ran a 3dmark gpu benchmark and it runs that fine. However as soon as I run the cpu benchmark I get a bsod. I think it' pointing towards a cpu issue? Ohh I also disabled xmp but the issue still persists. I have ordered a brand new 12900k to see if that sorts it

    Rare for a CPU to be at fault, but not unheard of! Have you double checked the CPU socket for bent pins or dust?

    No dust as its a brand new board. Pins were all fine before installed the cpu. The CPU was the only used item i installed. And it looks like the seller sells multiple cpus so no telling how he got hold of them. Still i got a brand new one coming and if its not the issue i can always sell my used one for the same price i paid for it so aint really lost anything. I went through the Event viewer and there is nothing in there pointing at a driver or anything. Just seems funny that as soon as i launch a cpu benchmark it BSODs yet it will run the GPU benchmark all the way through

    Ok ended up being the xmp on the ram. I disabled it but it didnt revert back from 3600 hence i was still getting BSODs. I have now set it to run at 3200 and all seems fine.
    Cheers For the help

    Glad you got it sorted! It's a pain when what should be a simple set-and-forget isn't!

    Yeah i have built a few machines over the years and never had a issue. Might have a go at trying 3600 and upping the voltage slightly. Thats for another time i think. Just happy to be back gaming again lol.
    Cheers

    It's unlikely to be the memory voltage at fault. It will more than likely the memory controller voltage which will need upping.
