System completely unstable with any overclock, even stock ones.

Hello.
Whenever I try running any OC whatsoever on my system (such as my memory's XMP or my motherboard's preset overclocks), it works just fine on bootup.. However, whenever I enter a game and play for a while, all of the sudden both of my screens turn black, nothing responds but the audio keeps on working (and even my webcam stayed on). The restart button does absolutely nothing, only the power button saves the day.

Odd thing is that the system remains totally fine in stress testing (AIDA64, Prime95, etc), yet in games it decides to die.

Any help, please?


Windows 8.1 Pro
Asus Rampage IV Extreme (latest BIOS)
Corsair Vengeance 2400MHz RAM 4x4 GB(1333MHz without XMP)
Core i7 4930K
R9 290X (13.11 WHQL Driver)
SeaSonic X-Series 1250W 80+ Gold PSU

I've ran MSI's Kombustor as well, works fine (as I said, though, as long as I have no overclocking whatsoever).
