    Thanks for providing the dump files. Could you please update (if possible) the following driver:

    Code:
    1: kd> lmvm ksUSBa64
    Browse full module list
    start             end                 module name
    fffff800`95df0000 fffff800`95f98000   ksUSBa64 T (no symbols)           
        Loaded symbol image file: ksUSBa64.sys

    Hmm, I see which one it is. Should I go for the manufacturer driver, or the optional one in Windows Update?

    I would try the one suggested by Windows Update at first, if you crash again, then update to the manufacturer version.

    Alright, I have the latest driver from the manufacturer and still getting BSODs. I find it weird that this driver is causing trouble since it's for a USB device that's not always plugged in, and yes I do have BSODs even when it's unplugged.

    EDIT : here's the latest dump I managed to get between two BSODs.

    It appears that your graphics card driver is causing issues again.

    Code:
    0: kd> lmvm nvlddmkm
    Browse full module list
    start             end                 module name
    fffff801`2b540000 fffff801`2d4b3000   nvlddmkm T (no symbols)           
        Loaded symbol image file: nvlddmkm.sys

        Information from resource tables:
    There was another update released for some cards recently so it might be worthwhile updating to that. However, considering, the number of crashes you've experiencing, I suspect that the issue might be hardware related. I understand that you ran MemTest86 previously for 8 passes, although, I have witnessed occasions where MemTest86 didn't detect any errors until a second or third run of 8 passes.

    I was thinking of running memtest86 again so I'll do that. I definitely don't have the latest graphic drivers because I've adopted the "if it's not broken, don't upgrade it" policy but I'll upgrade it just to be sure.

    This whole thing is really puzzling to me though : when I posted that last reply I had just experienced like 4 or 5 BSODs in half an hour, yet as I'm typing this I haven't experienced a BSOD for at least 24 hours.

    If it's hardware related, what do you think the culprit would be? Motherboard?

    I've been crash-free for about a week, then today, three BSODs in the span of an hour.

    Okay, it's been a while and a lot has happened.

    Things were tested, windows reinstalled (more than once), peripherals and components unplugged... Blue screen kept popping-up, games kept crashing randomly...

    Long story short : I have tracked down the issue to either a faulty CPU or Motherboard, and then I remember that I still had my old CPU / MB / RAM combo stashed somewhere. So I replaced the new with the old a few days ago, and now I'm waiting.

    Nothing's crashed yet... Fingers crossed.

    I replaced motherboard, CPU and RAM. Problem is gone. No more game crashes, no more BSODs.

    Thank you everyone who helped, unfortunately there was not much that could be done.
