I tried to over clock my system, was working fine until I was about to go to bed. It started acting kind sluggish, and the mouse shrunk and started to not disappear from the place it was last at. So, I can move it, but it leaves a trail behind it. I have checked RAM and it seems fine. I stood within the safe areas that my motherboard suggested on both CPU & RAM. Also, I did raise the memory for my internal GPU, since my graphics card has not arrived yet. I've done multiple test with overclocking only 1 thing at a time and even as I mentioned before I've done test in which I reset the settings and didn't touch anything besides for the boot order. Any help is much appreciated.

I7 6700K, 16GB of DDR4 3000Mhz RAM, 240GB SSD, 1TB WD Black HDD.

your never going to guess what it was. Basically I had this old wireless mouse that barley worked. So, I used it to download a remote mouse app for my iPhone. I used this app to operate my computer until I got my new mouse and keyboard today. The second I plugged it in, almost everything was fixed. Also, I uninstalled the software for the mouse and successfully overclockrd my system by simply hitting a switch on my motherboard that was for slow booting. Don't know why it was on, but that was holding back everything. I'm running at 4.5Ghz for processor & 3000mhz as far as RAM. Thanks for the reply though lol
