I have been having issies with BSOD's since installing 2 pieces of new hardware.

I keep getting a Blue Screen Of Death mainly while gaming with this error

I also get the occasional BSOD while browsing the internet however this is rare. and has a diffrent Code.

I have tried the following fixes
updated all my drivers to the latest version
Updated windows.
Updated MB Bios
Updated Direct X
Re-installed the Games
Re-installed Windows 7 X64

System:
Asus Rampage Extreme SKT775
Intel Q9550 2.83Ghz @ 3.40Ghz
4GB Corsair Dominator DDR3
X-FI Sound Card (Soundmax Drivers)
OCZ Agility 3 60GB SSD

Any advice would be greatfull

AHCI mode is selected and it still happens on stock clock speeds

I have run the system @ clock for 2 nights with current BSOD's still happening. and played with a few voltages.

I do somehow think its the OCZ Agility imo. I had issues with the first one i had it was faulty with the known OCZ Firmware issue. I have just finished updating the Firmware on this one to latest version to see if that help. its been a couple of hours without issue however the BSODS are very intermittant so i will have to wait and see.

I will say this.... i previously had a 4870X2 and had serious boot issues and was not a stable card on any driver. this 6970 give me no headaches apart from in Battlefield 2 when it loads it freezes for about 20 seconds then runs fine :rolleyes:
