Hi there!
Running XMP is overclocking and I think it is the RAM that is not behaving as it should. Maybe best to try setting it up manually and/or increasing VTT/VCCSA a bit.
What values is XMP setting for these last?

I tried using the XMP setting, and i believe the values were:
9 11 10 28 2N 2133MHZ from that setting. I was able to input all the values except the "2N" value. I don't know where to find that value. So i found that the XMP setting had a profile that was equal to the above values. I checkrf Gskill and those are the proper values for my ram as well.
i checked the DRAM voltage and set both to 1.65, i think there were 2 places to enter in those values. one for the right side and one for the left side.
i even updated my BIOS, uninstalled my video drivers and reinstalled them and i ran memtest86+ and it passed 1 round for about 1.2 hours. Did Prime95 for more than 6 hours with no hitch. temperatures were stable. Until last night, i was able to play some games for a few hours before the freezing occurred and the BSOD popped up. This time it forced me to run BIOS saying overclock failure when i only had the XMP settings. So, i reverted back to optimized defaults and will see if this occurs again.
this is my first build and i honestly have no idea how to properly do things within the BIOS, aside from the obvious and default settings.

OK - please follow my Memtest86+ guide and I would not be surprised that you have a stick of ram that is faulty when the XMP profile is enabled.
