Hello there,
I just built my new pc and I love using it, however, I suddenly got a BSOD (Error code: WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR) while rending a pretty long video and having like 10 tabs open in chrome.
If someone has the time could they please help me. I hope nothing is actually broken already, everything is brand new...
Thanks a bunch!

((I'm kinda worried tho))

Ps. I don't overclock
My build: Link Removed

Solution
Well the WHEA error relates to your internal CPU timer.

I would reset your firmware to defaults and also look for any firmware updates for your motherboard. If neither of those resolve the issue you may need to RMA your CPU.

Nice card, use afterburner 4.6.2 beta and it has a OC scanner. Try that. Works a treat on my 1080

Thanks, I will!

Edit: here is the result: "09:27:49 Test completed, confidence level is 0%" so anything above 0% is overclocking and unsafe?

I had my power limit up high so I set my gpu clock, memory clock, gpu voltage, power limit, and temperature limit to +0%
Should that be okay or do you think I should try something else?

setting the power limit to it's highest is fine. But give the OC scanner a go.

I did. I told you the result: "09:27:49 Test completed, confidence level is 0%"

Sorry missed that. That's weird. How long have you had the card?

I bought it second hand for 255€ back in December. They said it wasn't overclocked or mined with, so I bought it. It looked clean enough on the pictures.

Edit: Also did I say the case fans didn't spin any faster, even with cinebench stessing the cpu?
