New overclocker..
Is has yet to crash during normal gaming, ect. Is it fine to just leave it?
What would be the first steps in figuring out and fixing this?

i5-4670k 4.4ghz 1.195vcore (goes to 1.208 under stress, not sure why)

gtx 770, +92 core, +500mem, standard voltage

MSI g45 Gaming Mobo

FurMark: burn in 4 hours, fine.

Aidia64: (Everything but GPU) 2 hours, fine. (could do more but.. electricity bills are hard)

Adia64: Add the GPU, BSoD.

Hi there!

It sucks to have issues like this, so easy question first. How big is your PSU?

Thanks for the reply!

In my original post I was incorrect, I did not stress test the disks with the CPU for the two hours.

I ran another test today (aida64), with everything stress testing I BSoD in under 10 seconds again. Had to verify disks on start up.

Tried again, this time it lasted a bit longer (38 seconds) and froze (No BSoD)

I'm completely lost on troubleshooting OC problems.

Did you happen to take note of the error code you were getting for the BSOD's by any chance?

And much as I hate jumping to conclusions, my gut instinct is telling me that you are another in a very long line of people with a crap MSI motherboard. I've been seeing literally dozens and dozens of bad reports about that exact model of motherboard, and all of them are voltage stability issues that either roast chips, or cause overheats and BSOD's.

There is also the possibility, as my other half reminded me, that you could have line instability in the PSU. Have you been able to test the system with a different PSU?

The screen comes up blue, then goes away quickly and reboots, how do I find the error code?

How would I go about determining if I'm having motherboard or psu stability problem? I do not have access to another PSU and therefore cannot just drop another one in to see if it's the problem.

Is it possible I simply don't have enough volts on my CPU for stability while using my GPU? Or is that unrelated?

What temperatures do you get (the heat may be trapped inside the case)

Very reasonable temps from what I've read.

Avg 63 on the cpu with adia64 (for the 2 hour test)

And I did the GPU about a week ago (4 hour test) and I think I had an average around 72-73, low 70's forsure with FurMark.

This is pretty much what my partner and I came up with, yes. Is there a way for you to check the system stability with another PSU.

Sorry, that response was for a different thread. When it comes to the BSOD, do you have the dump file to hand? It should be stored at the following location C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Temp\WER-125393-0.sysdata.xml where "yourname" is your user name. As for the PSU being the issue, it could be that if there isn't enough voltage being delivered on any of the rails, then demanding more by overclocking could easily be causing the system to crash. Sorry for the confusion.
