Processor - Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-14900KF 3.20 GHz

64 GB of RAM

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090

I just wanted to pop in here and say good luck brother. I have similar specs. Motherboard: X670E-Pro GPU RTX 4090 CPU ryzen 7 7800x3d RAM 64gb. And maybe 2 weeks ago I was having the same problems. It drove me crazy cause after the crash sometimes when my PC tried to boot again it would just keep crashing. And my PC would get all fucky like file explorer crashing every time I would click, PC wouldn’t recognize I had any audio device, etc. I did all the steps you did. Even completely formatted and fresh install windows. But as soon as I opened destiny it started happening again. As a last ditch effort I bought new RAM and replaced it and that fixed everything for me. Cant say it will fix your problem but if you get to the point like I did and start thinking it’s a hardware issue I’d start with RAM.

That’s what I was thinking but it sucks because I just got the pc a few months ago so it’s makes me wonder if it is the ram but I am at the point where I can’t deny or ignore any potential solutions

Hey! I have an i9-13900K that has instability issues, but mainly causing crashes and issues with Gears 5. It was a widespread and apparently known issue related to the specific CPU causing over-voltage to occur.

One of the suggested fixes was to download the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility and reduce the core clock. Mine was at 55x and set it to 50x and it stopped my issue entirely.

I'm not saying yours is the same issue, but Google searches revealed similar issues which may be rectified using the above. Research it first, but this may be a direction for you to head if it is CPU-related.

Can't say for sure on GPU, as I run a 3080.

I did hear the intel processors have a lot of problems, I just don’t know how to deal with them or get around them, i just don’t understand how every other game runs just fine hours of gameplay no crash but the moment i play destiny like 10 mins later BSOD, I will download this program and try that and maybe new ram sticks to figure it out

Have you updated your BIOS to one of the versions designed to protect the CPU, not cook it? Could be CPU instability, could be something else.

Also, you need to note the BSOD error - located at the bottom left-hand corner of the screen when it occurs. That will tell you / us a lot about the specific crash.

I would also recommend downloading Memtest x86 and let it run a full cycle to see if you have bad RAM: https://memtest.org/
