last night when i was trying to game again seeing if the previous attempts were successful in fixing my problem i got 3 new BSOD of different things which lead to some tests i did in the content below.
CRITICAL_STRUCTURE_CORRUPTION
MEMORY_MANAGEMENT
and the last one i got was
SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (what failed nvlddmkm.sys)
@Daddyd302 - yeah before in my previous builds i used to use a single cable for a 6 + 6 pin or a 8 +6 but after i had read and saw benchmarks of better performance using 2 separate cables but now that i use a modular PSU i have the option to use as many as id like (i.e 2 different 8 pins coming directly from the PSU). I do have the original cables that came with the PSU and so i will try with those when im not working my 12 hour shifts. i bought the bitfenix white cables for my build for aesthetics but they are the complete replacement and not extenders, just wanna point that out.

i did buy a lower wattage run for pump testing purposes so i will try that although the 650w kinda makes a tad nervous. I also do have my old 980ti classified from EVGA but since i was watercooling with hard tubing and the size difference of the classified card makes it hard to fit it in with my look. (i know i will have to disassemble my loop i just dont want to, you know >.<
@Menthos - if im not mistaken itsa single 12v rail in my EVGA 850w G2 gold rated PSU.i did have AI Suite installed, not sure about gamefirst and i do have OSD running from MSI afterburner to keep an eye on temps although none of the Asus software is running besides the Aura RGB software but that is recent before when all this started nothing was even installed besides base drivers from the Asus Website. i do use GeForce experience for my FPS gauge though. Roger on the disabling of the software i will try it tomorrow after i get some sleep (working 7pm to 7am).
@ Raja@ASUS - i have reverted to stock memory settings (w. XMP settings) and it still does the same thing, i also ran the most extensive Windows Memory Diagnostic Tool test you can with the settings of Extreme and 5 passes and i forgot what the last setting was but i think it had to do with the cache on each stick, i did turn that on to test. that test took like 8+ hours it was crazy i passed out and woke up waiting for my results and nothing came up ( in the Windows Memory Diagnostic thing it says it will restart and show your results but never did get a result once i logged in with my password, however after 4 passes out of 5 that i was awake to see it said no errors detected in the memory. I also ran a Check and possible Repair Windows System File using sfc /scannow command in the command promp and it came back with:
Verification 100% complete.
Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.
and so now im kinda stumped on where to go now besides the advice given above, Also i want to say thank you for everyone who has pitched in so far! I appreciate all the help, thank you.
