This is my first time posting on the forum, let me know if I am leaving out info I need please. I am having issues with a new PC I just built. Whenever I try to run Prime95, it crashes either immediately, or within 15 minutes. All of my lights and fans stay on. My monitor just says no input.
My bios settings are set to default. Below are my system specs:
Motherboard: Asus B350 Rog Strix
CPU: Ryzen 7 1700
Cooler: Stock (Wraith Spire)
GPU: Asus Rog Strix 1080 ti
Ram: Corsair Vengeance RGB 3000 15-17-17-35
PSU: Corsair CS750M
Case: Phatek Eclipse P400s
OS: Windows 10 10.0.15063
Boot Drive: Mydigitalssd BPX 480 GB M.2
Geforce Game Ready Driver: 385.69
Bios: 0902
Chipset Driver: 5.12.0.31
This is the 2nd PC I've built, first Ryzen build, and first attempt at overclocking.
I ran memtest for 8 hours after I got my parts because I was waiting on my ssd to install my os. After installing windows and having issues with constant crashes, everything seemed to stabilize after updating windows and all my drivers. I felt like I was ready to give overclocking a shot.
I started using Dual intelligent processors 5. It took my cpu up to 3.725 GHZ. Then, I decided it was time to overclock my Ram and test. I started reading about ai suite and Dual Intelligent Processors 5, and this scared me and convinced me to uninstall it. I decided I would figure out how to overclock with the bios. I restarted, and manually entered a 35x multiplier. I set my Ram to 2933 using DOCP. I restarted, with the intent to run Prime95 to test stability. After restarting and running Prime95 for 15 minutes, I decided to play Skyrim SE for a couple hours. I experienced no issues. After I was done, I turned on Prime95 and figured I'd let it run overnight. In the morning, my PC was off. I didn't know if it was due to inactivity or instability.
Later that night, I decided I was going to test my stability before doing anything else. I set my ram to default, set my multiplier to 35x, and figured I would make sure I was stable at lower settings. Based on my research, I should have no issues at 35x with stock voltages. After reboot, a friend started playing fortnite. I decided that I would postpone running prime and play fortnite because I thought I had settings that were so low they had to work. I played fortnite 3 hours with no problems. At the end of the night I decided to run Prime95. It immediately turned my screen black. Everything appeared to still run, but my monitor showed no input. I powered down by switching off my psu. I booted into bios and turned my settings to default. I booted again and started prime95. I had a failure almost immediately.
I've watched multiple videos and tried the following things:
High Performance Power Plan
Ryzen Balanced Power Plan
CPU voltage as high as 1.35 volts (it's an offset on my motherboard)
DRAM voltage as high as 1.40 volts and enter manual timings.
SOC voltage to 1.1 volts.
Turned off Windows 10 game mode.
Disabled Core Performance Boost
Disabled Global C-State control
Set Performance Bias to NONE
Took ProcODT to 48 Ohms, 53.3 Ohms, and 60 Ohms.
Swapped RAM with my other computer (Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200) and tried different DOCP profiles.
After all of this and multiple days of watching videos and troubleshooting, I don't know what to do. I'm hoping it's a video driver or something stupid I'm overlooking.
Sorry for the book. Thanks in advance for any help.

My suggestion is to google your MB/CPU/RAM pair and see what other people clock at and take an average to be your start point. It takes a lot of trials to get to stable setting. Moreover, update BIOS to most recent version, mostly they help with OC stability
