Hi, new to the website and computers, so sorry if i do not provide all the needed info or if my formatting is off.
Computer:
OS: win 8.1
CPU: pentium g3258
GPU: asus r9 270
Mem: 4x4gb g.skill ripjawx 1600mhz
MOBO: gigabyte z97x ud5h
HDD: WD 1TB black; Crucial M500 240gb
I recently built a new computer (my first) and have been attempting to overclock it. I was able to get it to 43 core multiplier at a voltage of 1.28. It was going great and I was able to play games (WoW, Mechwarrior online, Endless Legend) with no issues.
However a couple of hours ago, I hit a blue screen (Whea Uncorrectable Error) and upon trying to reset, my computer kept freezing, before loading or loading into BIOS usually with no BSOD. Occasionally it would blue screen and I would get Machine Check Exception, or Whea Uncorrectable Error
Right now i am running at stock speeds and it seems to be running fine.
One other problem I found when I was trying to figure out the problem, was that my computer only boots if my memory is in a certain order, ie a specific stick in a specific slot. If not, my computer gets stuck in a boot loop. However, if I use only 2 sticks in any of the slots it works fine.
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated!
