Hi all.
Specs.
Intel i7 6700k with CM Hyper 212 EVO Air cooler.
MSI Z170A Gaming M5 A mobo
G.Skill Trident Z DDR4 3200 2X8GB
Samsung SSD Evo 250g with Win 10
EVGA 4GB GTX 980
I overclocked today the CPU for the first time. Nothing out of hand. Pushed to 4.5ghz on 1.325v.
Ran ROG Realbench. Left it running for a couple of hours and it seemed ok. When I returned to the machine I had a black screen and pc was frozen. Upon reboot, shortly afterwards I got a BSOD WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR. another reboot shows the same message or CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT.
Never exceeded 65C. Sometimes after a crash and reboot it will crash and hang during bios splash, sometimes windows would boot but it hangs after just a few minutes or seconds. Not enough time to run a sfc /scannow or grab a memdump.
Any suggestions?
Also, and really strange, the pc is connected to the Internet with a hardwired ethernet cord. As a result of this issue today if the ethernet is connected to the pc, even in bios, it cuts the Internet to the entire house on either WiFi or ethernet connections. When I shut the pc down and reboot the router everything is ok with the network again, until the pc is reconnected. How could this be?
Thanks for any assistance that can be offered!
