Please open the Asus website > enter the computer's serial or product number with operating system > view all drivers > make images and post into the thread.

Please reinstall the AMD chip set drivers to see if this fixes the bsods.

I went and updated the chipset drivers. I should also say that inside the setup for updating those drivers, I you click on "custom install", you can select the AMD PSP drivers. After that, I activated driver verifier again, and it showed me that the mouse driver had failed, so I uninstalled and re-installed it. Then, after I had activated the verifier, it crashed again, but this time it didn't say "driver verifier detected violation", it said "irql not less or equal". I checked if the verifier was running in command prompt with verifier /querysettings and it is indeed running.

In the latest zip there were 5 bsod mini dump files.
The last 2 were without windows driver verifier and did not display any definitive misbehaving drivers.
The amdpsp driver may have been before or after the latest re-installation of the chip set drivers.
With time zone changes it had a 8/12/2017 date.
There was 1 new misbehaving driver detected: ElcMouLFlt.sys

1) Open device manager > expand mice and other pointing devices > post an image of what is visible
The database displays Kaspersky and that name typically is for antivirus products.
So a posted image will be useful for others that may view this thread in the future.
In the above post you had indicated that you had already troubleshooted this misbehaving driver. But if you kept the same mouse and replaced the driver an image may be useful.

3) restart windows driver verifier and post any new bsod mini dump files with an updated zip

See if one of these links has the driver for the Elecom mouse:

When I uninstalled and reinstalled the mouse driver, it changed to HID- compilant mouse (as you can see in the image). I also don't have any antivirus, as this is a new PC (I know I should've installed one). I restarted the driver verifier, and nothing happened. Today I got another two blue screens, without any sign of the verifier detecting a bad driver. I will leave the zip file and the device manager image here.

There was no definitive misbehaving driver in the latest bsod mini dump file.

1) Turn on Windows defender.
2) perform windows updates
3) Download and install the free edition (not trial) for Malwarebytes
4) Run the windows defender as a quick scan now
5) Run windows defender as a full scan overnight.
6) Run a Malwarebytes scan.
The Malwarebytes will scan for PUPs.
7) After all of the malware scans have completed create a brand new restore point
8) start windows driver verifier to find misbehaving drivers

I did all the scans with Windows Defender and Malwarebytes. Malwarebytes did find PUP (DriverAgent from before I reinstalled Windows again), and since I don't need it, I let Malwarebytes delete it. Then, I restarted driver verifier. I didn't get any crashes for two days so I went and reinstalled Rocket League. Today, just when I decided to make a post thanking you for your help, thinking the problem was solved, it crashed again. I restarted driver verifier, and this time it did detect a violation. I went to WhoCrashed, and saw that the responsible was mbae64.sys. I'll let you do your thing.
PD: I guess my PC doesn't want me to thank you so I'll thank you in advance for all your patience and help, Thanks!

The bsod were seen in some of the logs however one of the events was crash dump failed.
When a crash dump fails there is no mini dump file to debug.
It's unclear how whocrashed was able to process the dump.
If it was that means that it had had to exist.
So make sure that if Ccleaner is being used that the settings are modified so that it does not delete dump files.
Please post into the thread the whocrashed result.
The mbam is malwarebytes. So it may need to be uninstalled.
It did find a PUP.
The Rocket League crash was reported in the windows events.
When it crashed it involved Nvidia.
So this may need some more testing to see whether the Nvidia driver was a cause of the dump as there were more crashes than dumps. With more mini dump files to debug the misbehaving driver may become apparent when using windows driver verifier again.

To make sure any possible malware is addressed run these scanners on the computer and post the results into the thread:

Since memtest passed and every bsod dump show memory_corruption without showing specific drivers as cause, i recommend to have an focus on disk drives and disk controller drivers.

Can you provide us with the kernel memory dump please? Its located in C:\Windows\MEMORY.DMP.
You can upload it to an cloud service like dropbox or onedrive.

1) run one of the SMART tests on your drives:

a) CrystalDiskInfo - Software - Crystal Dew World:
Download Center - Crystal Dew World
CrystalDiskMark - Software - Crystal Dew World
Software - Crystal Dew World

b) HD Tune: http://www.hdtune.com/

c) Hard Disk Sentinel - HDD health and temperature monitoring: Hard Disk Sentinel - HDD health and temperature monitoring

2) When the SMART test has completed open the Microsoft snipping tool and make images of the results to post into the thread.

Hello, Mister! I had the EXACT same problem as you caused by ntoskrnl.exe, shown in whocrashed.
Found your thread on Google just 2days back and found myself a fix for it.
- Fix? FAULTY/NOT SUPPORTED RAM BRICKS! HARDWARE!

The chaos all started when I first upgraded from DDR3 8GB (1866mhz - bios shows 1333 for some reason though?) to DDR3 16GB (1600mhz). Crashes, BSODs and lots of unusual glitches. THEN I upgraded my gpu from Radeons 7950 to GTX1080 and got myself some significant performance boosts on my rig, but the crashes and glitches still persisted.

I tried reformatting clean windows 10 several times. At first I was sure it was because of my drivers, but it all worked out great after I changed my ram back to the old ones. (8GB, 4gb on each, 2sticks) Now I can FINALLY play games with my friends in piece.

MY SETUP
Motherboard: P8H61-I LX R2.0
CPU: i7-3770 (non-k)
GPU: GTX 1080
PSU: 600w

Hope my solution gets you the same benefits as I did.
