Hi everyone. Just wondering if every is ok with my overclocked cpu... my question is that sometimes (rarely) my pc wont start normally the fans spin, then the computer will start again and go to the bios. After that a message is prompted saying that I should consider a "regular" configuration, which I assume is setting down the frequency of the cpu. I've ran various test for several hours with occt and core temp to test the voltage stability and the temperature of the cpu and everything has been good. Just wondering is this normal or what do you guys suggest me to do? Thanks!!

I'll leave my specs:

Pc case: Phanteks enthoo pro with the stock fans.
CPU: Intel core i5 6600K @3.5ghz(oc @ 4.4Ghz) with a EVO hyper cooling 212.
GPU: GTX 970 4GB ASUS turbo.
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z170 HDP3 CF.
PSU is a 650W smart bronze.

 
Solution
Processor Base Frequency 3.5 GHz
Max Turbo Frequency 3.9 GHz
This is the specs from Intel :http://ark.intel.com/products/88191/Intel-Core-i5-6600K-Processor-6M-Cache-up-to-3_90-GHz?q=6600K
If you try to clock your CPU more then 3.9 you should probably need more expertise need to try various volts and frequents for both CPU and RAM to get to "golden" ones.

Ram is G.skill rip jaws series v 8G (2x4) DDR4
And the method I'm not sure... I went into the BIOS and used the advanced frequency tab to increase the Ghz. Voltage is set to auto and its usually between 1.20 and 1.22.
