First things first, specs:
MSI z97 PC Mate Mobo
Corsair 600w PSU
i7-4770k
EVGA GTX 1070 FTW
16GB Corsair Vengeance 2133MHZ

Overclocked my CPU to 4.0Ghz, set the voltage to 1.250 (adaptive mode) set my Ram to 2133MHZ/1.5v, X.M.P Enabled, I've only messed with Ring Ratio, not base clock, however, my base clock is set to apply on "next boot", and Intel C-State is disabled. That's legitimately everything I adjust before rebooting my computer. Here's the problem:
When I first apply these settings, my computer runs great on that next boot. I can leave it on all day and play video games to my heart's content, CPU runs at a great 4.0 GHz, temps are low (shout out to December weather) and overall zero issues. But when I turn my computer off and come back later to turn it on, it will run for about 10 minutes before just turning off, rebooting, and telling me the overclock has failed. Despite not having any issues while the OC is applied initially.
Furthermore, after the crash, if I go back and reapply every setting as mentioned above, once again on that next boot everything is perfectly fine. I have zero idea why this keep happening. Please help!

you cannot get into your bios ? ok pull power cord from wall, open case, gently pop the battery from main board, wait 2 mins, put battery back in place , close case, apply power boot system , you have reset cmos, now on logo Press CTL-ALT-DEl or F2 and get into bios, then press F10 and boot up, test computer is running properly before overclocking it again.

I can get into my BIOS and reset to default without clearing the CMOS, same problem again today. Left my computer on all day playing video games, no problem, everything ran super well, then I turn it off and go to bed, turn it on and while im making coffee it crashes again.
