Well this is my first time overclocking and I've been going at a increment of .1 and I got my cpu to 4.3 on 1.15 vcore and I was running occt today and I have it set to stop when the cpu temps reach 80 C and I was also monitoring it with Hwmonitor. The test stopped and said core 1 reach 127C but hardware monitor had it at 58 during the test and when the test stopped it says core 1 is at 1.5C. Is this just a bug? I'm using a 3770k and an asus maximus v formula. This also happened when I went up from 3.9 to 4.0ghz. the same temp readings... oh and I'm also using a thermaltake water pro 2.0
 
Just a bug. If both monitoring programs try to read the temps at the same time you get weird error readings.
127c is the max reading on most motherboards.
Nothing to worry about.

Just make sure if you are folding ,rendering gaming etc. to just run one monitoring program if you have a shut off temperature set.

I also got a bsod earlier, when stress testing, and I just upped the vcore to 1.5 and when I did the test again it didn't happen. When something like that happens does that mean the overclock is unstable?
