    it means you should yank ram,
    uninstall any cache/booster drivers
    consider aquiring a low cost i3 to test,,
    etc.

    oh, and uninstall cFosSpeed Internet Accelerator Software

    I just saw another user who experienced a bsod only when online, the above software is implicated in network activity related kernel bsods, its bundled with your Mainboard.

    List what drivers did you install and what software (especially apps provided by Gigabyte).

    What is the version of BIOS (in motherboard)?

    So you're saying that the BSOD happens even when not playing the game?

    BIOS version is F14a, the most recent one in Gigabyte's site.
    I installed the most recent version of all chipsets on Gigabyte's site.

    April 9:
    - Installation of Ibb & Obb (FIRST BLUE SCREEN WHILE PLAYING)

    April 15:
    - Nvidia graphics driver 445.87
    - Nvidia HD audio driver 1.3.38.26
    - Nvidia control panel

    [approximately 5 blue screens happen randomly between april 9 and 21, with the last one happening on APRIL 21]

    April 22:
    - Uninstallation of Ibb & Obb
    - Realtek HD audio driver

    April 23:
    - Nvidia PhysX 9.19.0218
    - Intel Network Connections 23.5.0.0
    - Intel Chipset Device Software

    April 25
    - Reinstallation of Ibb & Obb (LAST BLUE SCREEN SO FAR, WHILE PLAYING)

    Yes, but you see why I suspect of this game?
    I wasn't experiencing blue screens for three days, then boom, a BSOD exactly while playing it again, just like the first time.

    @Floydsound

    So no 3rd party tools (from Gigabyte, for example)?

    No tools, only chipsets and BIOS.

    A mystery. But solution is there - uninstall the game.
    ... or clean install of Windows.

    I did install Rivatuner Statistics Server though, but it was before the first BSOD, and it wasn't running when it happened. I uninstalled it this week before the last BSOD too.

    Thanks for the heads up :)

    I have never touched RTSS, so I don`t know whether it injects something into OS.
