Good afternoon,
I'm a broke lad who can't afford to buy new hardware for my computer so I decided to get a cheap E8400, since it was good enough for what I wanted to do..
The next day after installing the cpu I tried to overclock it by 15-17%.
That's not much at all, I shouldn't even need to increase voltages on it but whilst playing CS:GO either my game would crash completly or the computer would suddently reboot or display a BSOD.
I tried to increase the voltages on the CPU, NB and Memory.. Nothing worked.
I downclocked it from 3.55 to 3.4 and it still hasn't worked
Temps are pretty low, 35ºC idle, 45-50 gaming.
Any clues on what it could be? Help would be much appreciated!
Cheers,
Victor
Edit: The voltages after I increased were at about 1.236V to 1.276, roughly below 1.3V
At the moment they are at 1.15-1.17V below 1.2V
Neither of those solved the issue
