I've been having some major problems with my PC lately, especially when I enable XMP. Every time I do, I get these annoying blue screens. I've gone through a few different BIOS versions and tested my RAM sticks individually, both with XMP on and off. I even ran MemTest, but every time XMP is enabled, I encounter errors. I'm trying to figure out whether the root of the problem is my RAM, CPU, or motherboard. I've got a new CPU on hand, but I'm hesitant to install it without knowing if my current CPU is potentially damaged, as I don't want to risk harming the new one. Here are my specs: Ryzen 5 7500F, ASRock B650 PG Lightning, and 2x16GB 6000MHz G.Skill Flare X5.

It sounds like you might want to check out the dump files created during those blue screens. They hold crash logs that can really help identify the issue. If you can boot into Windows or Safe Mode, navigate to C:WindowsMinidump to look for any dump files. Zip them up and upload them to a file sharing site like catbox.moe or mediafire.com so folks can take a closer look. The more files you have, the better the analysis! Don’t forget to adjust the dump settings as well for more consistent capture.
