I was having this issue in 10.10.4 right before and right after I updated to 10.10.5
The corsair RAM is definitely supported. I got it 3 years ago and has never malfunctioned. I do not have the original RAM on hand. I highly suspect this is NOT the issue
This cannot be a software issue if the same problem shows up in Windows 7. SMC Fan control is the only program which I installed after this issue cropped up to test if it was a heat related concern. I don't think that's the issue though I could test it some more. None of my other non apple software caused conflict like this after installing.
None of my other non apple software pieces caused this issue. This issue started immediately after I got home from a LAN party.
No antivirus programs are installed whatsoever.
