Restart and its fine, so im wondering wtf it is. It only happens once per session but it happens every session without fail, ASC related? I do the usual heat up to 70c's and twist the mount to get an even spread and its always a perfect mount but wtf is the popping?

Voodoo mobo mojo.

mine starts popping around -70 there is several pops then its done. I figured it was the last of the heat getting pushed out of the area. Anything pops when you cool it or heat it. Cookie sheets in ovens, siding on houses, gutters ect it. Metal shrinks when cool an expands when heated up.
If I hang an 80 foot gutter in winter temps the first 70-80 degree day will pop an kink that gutter unless I put an expansion joint in it.
I think its normal. As for the Bsod idk maybe the pop creates a vibration ripple an crashes the cpu.

I used to get the pop on quick temp pull downs but I haven't pulled down quick in a while so no pops lately.

CPU usually freezes or bsods during quick temp movements. I believe is has something to do with how the cpu is hardmodding, like a thermal detection failure switch that says that something must be wrong cuz temps are moving too fast in the wrong direction. But then again, I stayed at a Holiday Inn so wtf?

That makes sense. It'd probably trigger the sensor that is supposed to detect the heatsink falling off at full load.

CPU goes ZOMG EJECT EJECT EJECT!
