Hi all.
Hope someone can help. I built a new pc last year, here are the specs:
Ryzen 3 1200
Gtx 1060 3gb
Gigabyte b350m gaming mobo
8gb adata ddr4 (2x4gb)
EVGA 450BT
128gb drevo ssd
1tb WD blue hdd
So, I decided a few days ago to overclock my cpu, after hearing from bitwit on YouTube that you can comfortably and confidently set it to 3.9ghz without touching anything else on the stock cooler, so I did that and everything has booted fine and working fine. So I decided I may aswell try and see if I can have a go at overclockimg the 1060. I found this video on YouTube - https://youtu.be/k1dGwFOdFLI - and I decided to use that guide as it was quick and simple and easy for my relatively new to pc mind to understand lol. So I downloaded MSI afterburner and kombustor and ran kombustor. I then, as stated in the video, bumped the core clock up by 40. My pc instantly went to a black screen. So I hard reset and decided to do increments of 10 instead. Same black screen. So decided to use increments of 5. Same black screen? So I guess my question is, is this a case of bad silicone lottery for me and I can’t overclock at all (although I thought I may have been able to at least push it a tiny little bit, at least something, anything! Lol) or is this a bad guide to overclocking and there is something I’m doing wrong? Because I would like to get something extra if I can.
Thanks
