Hi guys,
So, I just bought myself a new PC. These are the specs:
CPU: Intel Core i5-6500 Skylake 3,2GHz
MB: ASUS Z170 Pro Gaming
RAM: Crucial DDR4 2133MHz 8gb set
GPU: ASUS GeForce GTX 1060 6gb Strix Gaming
CPU cooler: Cooler Master Seidon 120M
Now I want to overclock this (trying to pass 4000mhz), but any changes I do in the BIOS gives me a black screen when rebooting, then a message telling me the overclock failed. I have the latest BIOS for my MB (1904) and I've tried to follow several guides, with no luck at all.
I'm a total newbie to todays CPU's and MB's and my last PC was a LGA775 Core2Duo CPU.
What am I doing wrong? Why wont any higher frequency-value make my system boot normaly?
