So I finally decided to overclock my pc just to see what it could do, I used TurboV Evo through Asus Aisuite 2 to overclock and achieved 4.4 ghz (on a 3570 k). Afterwards I started playing Elder Scrolls Online and about 2-3 minutes into gameplay it just freezes and crashes. Iv never had any sort of issues with this computer until now so im wondering if my overclock is to high for my system?

My build list:
Asus P8z77-V Pro Mobo
i5-3570 k
HyperX Beast 8gb ram ddr3 2400
cpu cooler is a noctua nh-d14
