Hi everyone, recently upgraded to a G1.Sniper 3 Z77 board for my 3570K, was running o/c 4.2GHz on a GA-Z77-D3H with no problems. I changed to the Sniper so I could adjust my VCore (set to 1.210V ATM). Since then, although it passes Prime and OCCT stress tests, games have been hanging. Usually I can ALT-TAB back to Windows, but occaisionally I have to hard reset.

Temps are OK, does this sound most likely to need the VCore upped a smidge? Each time it happens I'm upping it by 0.05V and monitoring temps.

Cheers!

Yes, it sounds like you need more Vcore but I would try smaller increments, say +0.025 v. steps.
