So I just finished building my new WC build using my old equipment. I have a 120x3 in an 800D.

So I bump my clock up to 4.6 and my computer crashes. Then I bring it down to 4.5. It locks up while I am logging in to my startup. My temps are no more than 50 C on intel burn test. I feel that I should be able to push my chip much higher. If you are a cpu oc ninja then let me know what you think of my problem.

Are you overclocking using the bios?

Ok so I'm assuming you are at 50c in IBT at 4.4ghz? Your listed OC. What is your current cpu voltage? Also, make sure you have LLC Disabled and any type of power saving off at first.
