Okay so I recently have no clue what's causing it but I can predict a BSOD and can prevent it sometimes. Everytime this has happened I have been gaming. The warning sign is I will start to hear the sound get distoreded and then it progressivily gets worst and worst, sometimes the framerate drops and things start locking up. Everytime now when I catch this sound issue I quickly exit the game I am playing and try to restart my computer, I would like to point out that after exiting the game my windows sounds are also distored and my mouse lags. The reason I say I try to restart is cause one time I tried to restart to have the BSOD appear.
Now the BSOD displays the message "MACHINCE_CHECK_EXCEPTION" and has yet to complete a memory dump (the last time I remember it stopping or I should say froze on 55). I am pretty sure it's not my PSU as that has been recently replace it but I wouldn't like to rule that out. Earlier on I had an issue that was casue by a cable touching my motherboard and computer case (and friend told me I was causing small shorts to the MOBO). Could I have damaged the motherboard or is it something else. I hope what I have written has made sense, I would also like to point out I have found no pattern to when this event occurs, and it has only happened while I was gaming (the reason I say pattern is cause sometimes I can play a game fine, then the exact same game can cause this issue).
