Hello all, I am running an FX-8350 and an r9 290x 8gb. I overclocked the r9 290x to 1100mhz and 1400 memory. If you are aware of the stock clocks, it is a very minor overclock. I also overclocked my 8350 from 4ghz to 4.3 and 4.4. While playing certain games at certain parts I encounter the red screen of death. Evolve, Ryse, even once in CSGO. I then decided to turn off my gpu overclock and the issue still happened. It didn't go away until I returned my cpu to stock settings. Both of these overclock are very minor, but how can I play around with overclocking if I run into this issue? How can I stop it?
