I want a over kill PC

I have formatted my PC again with windows 7 yesterday. I then updated all the drivers from windows update. The only thing I didn't do was put the mobo drivers on as I wanted to see what drivers windows 10 installed as I installed that too. Under IDE ATA/ATAPI Controller it has.

Standard SATA ACHI Controller
Standard STAT ACHI Controller

I did notice under storage controller that it did install Microsoft Storage Spaces Controller which I think is GSATA for marvell. So is my SSD installed in the GSATA marvell and not normal sata 3?.

The last time I am doing it because it takes ages lol.

Those are possibly the Intel Rapid Storage drivers. I would have thought you could get them through Windows update though.
 
Nah it just done it again with Farcry 3. Went a funny colour screen and flashed and went to desktop. No error message. Game icon was on the task bar but couldn't click it. :(

Hmm.

I cant help think its SSD or RAM related.

I think it the RAM. I realized when it was running ok I had XMP turned off and running at normal 1333. But earlier I forgot I changed it to profile 1 to run 1600 and noticed more graphic glitches with it on. So will try a couple of test with it on till tomorrow evening and see how many crashes I get. Then if I get crashes then try with out it on.
 
Definitely memory in my opinion. Had 3 crashes last night in XMP profile 1 so decided to turn XMP to default and been fine. Also lowered core clock on graphic card by just 15 and memory clock up by 5. Massive improvement.
