BSOD BAD_POOL_HEADER with compute-intensive use and stress testing
Got a new Dell XPS 8930 for my photo/video editing hobby. Replaced stock RAM with 32G of Corsair Vengeance (CMK16GX4M2A2666C16) and added a Samsung 970 Pro 512GB NVMe SSD hosted by a Mailiya M.2 PCIe to PCIe 3.0 x4 adapter card. Then I got to work. When I am in the video editor, the PC restarts with no indication; and when I use the Intel XTU stress test, it gives me BSOD within minutes and *only* when I am stress-testing the CPU. The temps are high during the test (~80C to 90C) but nothing abnormal.
Foolishly, I didn't stress test or use the computer long enough with its factory hardware so I can't definitely say the issue started after I made the mods. I looked around and played with drivers etc, but no joy. Having hard time pinpointing the issue. DM logs are attached as per instructions. I'll be very grateful if someone can point me to the right direction.
Thanks,
