Hey guys,
I have a problem here. I upgraded a LOT on my computer in order to support crossfired R 380s including switching to a better mobo and upgrading to the above mentioned i5-4690k processor.
I clearly had a much better affinity for AMD overclocking with MSI because I am having nothing issue after issue with this one. I used the "Wizard" tool on BIOS and it determined that 4488 MHz was the appropriate OC setting. Fine, great in fact. So I start my test, which I'll include a picture of below, and it's all going great. 60 degrees, tests ramp up and it goes between 70-75. Well within where I'd like it to be during a stress test.
Then, suddenly, I'm seeing 100 degrees c on my cores so I immediately shut down the test.

Here is the aftermath.
Hopefully no damage was done, I cancelled it pretty quickly but I'm confused on what the issue is. Why the sudden jump? Prior to this I actually very slightly loosened my Evo 212 screws because I thought it may have been too tight and it seemed to have helped then suddenly this jump happened.
Anyone have any idea what happened?
