Occasional freezes and not liking a reboot

Hi guys,

I'm hoping for a little help here as I'm a little puzzled.

I have had my PC since the summer running a 3570K at 4.7GHz on a Gigabyte z77-ud5h motherboard with Avexir core blue 2666 (2x4gb).

Now it boots fine and works fine for most applications, however WoW crashes after long periods of play and BF4 does with short periods of play. These crashes sometimes result in BSOD for memory requiring a reboot. Now wether the reboot be manual or forced, it fails to post and comes up overclock fail. If I turn off the computer or simply leave it for 10 mins it will boot again no problem. The CPU never gets above 55-60 and the ram is still very cool touching by hand. I can turn down the ram speed to 2200 and the fails stop. I have ran MemTest86
From a USB boot and the ram does not show any failure. I understand the simply fix is to lower the speed to 2200, but I didn't spend the extra ££ to run it at a lower speed.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
 
what was the bsod code?

and looked in event viewer for any whea warning/errors?

games will crash to desktop if cpu isn't enough,even if it passes prim95 and ibt

adding more cpu/vtt voltage might help with your ram anywhere from stock 1.05v to 1.15v

thanks for the swift reply!

i have changed the VTT from auto to 1.15V to test stability and then i will progressively drop it.

as for the BSOD, this is the message;

The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x000000fc (0xfffff880027dc410, 0x80000000799cf963, 0xfffff880027dc0b0, 0x0000000000000000). A dump was saved in: C:\Windows\MEMORY.DMP. Report Id: 010114-5007-01.

resulting in a critical Kernel-Power fault.
 
has it done it since upping the vtt?

not sure what those are without googling,but you usually need more vtt with 16gb and a higher ram speed,xmp wont adjust that voltage either
 
However It now beeps constantly when it fails before cutting out and booting to the boot failure detection screen.
 
idk 2600mhz is high for z77 tho

manually setting the pci/cpu clock to 100

pwm phase control to extreme performance and vcore voltage response to fast might help with stability also

I know it's round the maximum but I thought it was able to take it? I will see how things go as I tested stability with prime95 torture test, which obviously isn't standard running. But will try to see how things go with it under normal operation. The phase control and vote response are already set to those but I haven't manually set the PCI/Clock to 100 as it seemed to run at that anyways.

Al post back in time to see how it runs. Thanks :-)
