Hey all, figured I would see if anyone could help out on this one. Basically at random times with random things going on (gaming, nothing, browsing web, desktop) my computer will blue screen (2-5 times a week). I built the computer in November, parts list is below:
OS: Windows 7 x64 Ultimate (Windows Completely Up to Date)
Case: Lian Li PC-9F (Mid-Tower)
Mobo: ASRock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3
CPU: Intel i7 2600k Sandy Bridge
GPU: EVGA SuperClocked 015-P3-1582-AR GeForce GTX 580 (Fermi) 1536MB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16
RAM: 16GB Ripjaw X Series DDR3 1866 (F3-14900CL9Q-16GBXL)
PSU: SeaSonic X Series X-850
HD1 (Windows): 128GB Crucial M4 SSD SATA III
HD2 (Installs): 500GB Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM SATA II
HD3 (Files): 2TB WD Cavier Black 7200RPM SATA II
Nothing is overclocked, although as a test for the BSOD, I have increased my VTT Voltage to 1.129 (it was defaulted to 1.05). My RAM is set to Auto in BIOS (but verified all timings were match to the RAM spec). I am using my RAM's profile of 1866 (however tested and got a BSOD when at 1333).
Things I have done to test what could be going on:
Ran memtest86+ (came back 100% after 7 hours (4/5 passes I think))
Under clocked my 1866 RAM down to 1333 (EVGA recommended as a test), still BSOD so reverted back
Ran memtestG (came back 100% ok after re-seating my graphic card)
Re-installed nVidia drivers (used Driver Sweeper in Safe Mode to clear out first)
Ran various graphic card benchmarks (no issues) (OCScanner, FurMark)
Ran Intel Burn Test on Max for 10 iterations with no failure (couple hours)
Ran HDTuner on my SSD, no issues
Ran Driver Verifier, got a different BSOD once (currently in my 24-48 hour test) though.
I guess I am not really sure how to read my minidump properly to be able to debug it, hoping someone on here could point me in a direction. I am assuming this is something driver related, I am just not sure unfortunately.
Since I am not sure how to upload my dumpfiles here, below is a link to my thread over at sevenforums.com

Post #4 has my newest dump file.
Any help would be appreciated on how I can properly make sure my RAM is not the cause, or if it is to start an RMA, I just don't want to waste the time of G.Skill if it is not.
