Only APEX LEGENDS causing BSOD/whole pc freeze

Hey, is it possible, that only while playing APEX LEGENDS my pc tends to freeze/BSOD my whole computer?

Followed by weird behaviour, i.e my pc afterwards will boot without all devices recognized, what I mean by that is that after my pc freezes I have to restart it manually and my pc reboots, but no monitor,keyboard,mouse,second monitor are recognized so I have to hard reset it again. I've tried reinstalling pc, reseting pc to factory (removed all apps), bought new GPU, playing with only one RAM at the time.

Sometimes my PC just freezes so I need to hard reset it

if I get BSOD its usually followed by another BSOD in this order:

1. IRQL sth not less or equal

2. SERVICE EXCEPTION sth

My temps are fine, psu is 550 and I have 1080 gtx, it was happening on 1060 as well.

It should by obvious by the title but if I play any other game, everything is okay, I've tried Battlefront 2, counter-strike GO. 

thank you for your answer.

  • hii @EA_Kent  i figured it out 

    it was my ram running in 1866mhz with all slots full was too much for my 4790k to handle that made my pc crash with random bsod or freeze during apex 

    so i manually set the ram to 1600mhz from bios and it fixed the issue
