Hello, I hope you are doing good, need a lil bit of help here:-
PC specs:-
core i5 2500k
gigabyte z77x UD3H 1.1
corsair xms3 1800mhz 2x2GB
rosewill capstone 550 gold / thermaltake litepower 600
msi r9 280x / pny 560ti
WD blue 500GB + Silicon Power C70 ssd
I bought my GIGA z77x UD3H and 2500k brand new 1.3 years back but I am unable to OC my cpu at all, any slightest change results in Boot Loops but eventually PC boots into OS and passes any stress test/ benchmark with good temps, but the boot loops make them effed.
I am having this problem from about almost my first Overclock on this board which was I guess 1.2 years ago, I used to have Thermaltake Litepower 600 PSU and PNY 560ti back then (rest remain the same as I said in above post), and now at this very moment I have upgraded to Rosewill Capstone 550 80+ Gold and msi R9 280X (Which I am running it at 1000mhz clock like the reference design's clocks though it comes at 1020mhz) so the problem then and the problem now is the same 1.2 year back I wanted my CPU OC'ed to at least 3.8ghz or 4.0ghz (all cores), but the problem was that, with just even a slight change in the settings (for example, setting the multiplier to 37 and using my rams xmp profile at its given 1600mhz speed and all other things on stock) the systems just pushed itself to boot loops, though after 2-3 loops when I got into OS finally, every stress test passed no core ever crossed 55C even in my damn hot room. So after much trying and consulting, some guys guided be for even 3.8ghz (as you know these clocks are sooo close to stock turbo clocks that they merely need any voltage tweaking) but still I tried to set voltage to normal LLC to high voltage response to fast and offset to +0.05 but loops every where, I started from F16 bios and now I am on F20e latest still same, I left the hope, returned to full stock 24/7 for an year and then now that I have upgraded to a quite decent PSU, its only 2 days old loving it, did many GPU and CPU stress testing, ALL ok.
SO the thing is that, when I use optimized defaults in BIOS, everything works like a CHARM, I have used full stock settings (except ram set to xmp 1600mhz auto and changed boot priority) for almost a year, and guess how many boot loops, ZERO in whole year.
So when I tried changing today again after a year, same story, so I thought to give it another try.
PS every single temp is fine and my PC is in good health, not even a bit of dust there. I also have cooler master 212+
I will be really really thankful for ANY help in advance
