    Ill try it agian. Better to be sure then waste $200. And what exactly do you mean "take a picture"? You mean a picture of mem86 results?

    Yes, use your cell phone or a camera. It doesn't have to be a good picture, just good enough for us to read the screen. The link for the test is above. Make sure to run memtest86+ not memtest86. The tests are very different no matter how close the names are.

    If you want to try one more clean install, disconnect all hard drives except the one you are installing Windows to. Have nothing at all connected to your computer other than the Monitor, keyboard and mouse, and the installation USB. Before starting go into BIOS and set the BIOS to optimized defaults. save an exit. No overclocks of anything. It will take longer but select to download updates during the install. Read through this to make sure everything is done right and have a copy of your personal files on external media before starting. Windows 10 - Clean Install

    Ok, ive started memtest86+ and ill let it run all night to tomorrow (which should be 20 hours). Ill report tomorrow with a picture on how the test went. But out of curiosity what indicates that this is not a hardware problem? I just want to learn for future reference.

    I was saying that if the clean install does not work it looks like it probably is a hardware problem. There is no reason I know of that your rig cannot run Windows 10, so the issue could very likely be a hardware problem.

    What CPU Temp monitoring program do you use? Your CPU temps look a little high, especially for memtest.

    I monitor it through open hardware monitor.
    What temperature is it normally supposed to be at?

    I'm not sure about your CPU, but mine runs memtest and finishes around 38°C. What CPU Cooler do you have. What temps do you get when you game or something stressful on your CPU?

    Should I try under clocking the CPU to make it run slower?

    No, if you are overclocking, stop. If you are running stock, leave it like it is. What are the answers from the post above?
