Hi there .
I have an fx 6300 and have managed to overclock it to 4.2 ghz but it seems to have a mind of its own.
I have been playing watch dogs with every setting on ultra exept AA left on 4x and most of the time its will run for an hour or 2 but then if I stop the game and go to watch a video or go online my pc starts making a constant buzzing noise and completely freezes up . Its seems to freeze more when its not doing anything ? Sometimes it crashes on boot screen ... also why can I not get it clocked higher then 4.2 I have a zalman cooler with 3 fans for the cpu alone ? Is it anything to do with my mb beeing a asus m5 mb with a max 140watt for cpu ?

Any help would be appreciated im new to overclocking
