I handle some tasks myself, but most are assigned to other machines at the moment. Also, even after swapping out all the components, the issue persists. If it’s still there, reinstalling the old parts might not solve it. It could be that neither the new nor the old parts caused the problem, or both played a role. The only clear factor that matters is the brand on the motherboard—my Asrock AM4 units have been consistently reliable, whereas my Asus boards often exhibit strange behavior like this.
Infinity fabric instability might affect various components like the memory controller, PCIe bus, and some USB ports. The main M.2 slot typically links to the CPU, while the secondary connects to the chipset.
We can verify if there are any WHEA events beyond the BSODs. These logs indicate which drive might assist in diagnosing the problem further. If you see informational and warning entries from WHEA (represented by the gray and yellow icons), they generally aren't useful, but I'll review them. Launch Event Viewer → Windows Logs → System. On the right, choose "Filter Current Log". In the new window, locate the "Event Sources" dropdown and pick "WHEA-logger". Click OK to apply the filter. If you notice any WHEA events, mark them, right-click and save. Submit the .evtx file to the forum or note the key information in the Details tab by copying the RawData field.
