So I've recently purchased a new CPU for my computer (about two months ago) and had been using it vigorously while overclocking, I got a bsod and then stopped overclocking it and gave it breaks here and there. However I kept on receiving bsod's, to the point where my computer wouldnt boot past the logo screen with that CPU, however, I am able to get into the bios perfectly fine. I proceeded to swap out the CPU and then my computer worked just fine afterwards.

I've seen lots of threads like this however this one is a bit peculiar to me, I'm assuming its burned out however if anybody has any insight that would be greatly appreciated.

What is your list of full specifications including PSU?
What were your temperatures while overclocked?
What CPU cooler were you using?

Try reset CMOS. Maybe some setting in BIOS previent Windows to boot

The motherboard only supports CPU's to 100 watt which is what your CPU is when it's not overclocked. You should not have overclocked on that motherboard. You could of damaged the motherboard doing so.
The temperature at 70c was too high too.
You can try resetting the Cmos like XxX1 suggested.
If you don't know how to do it just take the main power lead from the mains out of the back of your PSU, then take the battery out of your motherboard and press the power button on your computer which will drain the last bit of power from the capacitors.
Then replace the battery, power lead and try that.
I'm guessing you have caused damage to your CPU though. Your lucky your motherboard still works:)
