Strange problem.

I put my computer to sleep and it woke up straight away.

Since then it's been suck at 0.2 ghz. This is an i7 5820k overclocked to 4.2 but I've reset the bios by removing the battery.

Serious performance death, I've removed all cables except keyboard mouse and monitor. How could standby on windows 10 do this?

Last month I got a corsair rmi1000 has it killed something?

What do I do
 
Just tried to load into safe mode and it crashed entering windows. Blue restate screen

Is this a cpu problem or memory fail.

Ideas?
 
Cpu is water poles never goes above 60c

Okay got into safe mode and all cores working and at 3.30 ghz

I'm going to memory test and hard drive check. Hmm
 
Check all cables are connected corectly and all hardware such as gpu/memory are inserted correctly.

You could probablly rule out the memory by trying one stick at a time.
 
Does 1 stick at a time work with quad chan?

Okay now it's saying no errors after a sudden restart. This is confusing, it's working fine now. Memory testing time grrr.
 
Memory test came back fine, I'm going to put this down to not shutting down my pc and only using standby for ages and windows 10 being *insert generic swear of choice*

Now I'm going to be fearful of my pc randomly dying
 
overclock back up, stress testing is fine.

Seriously confused how resuming from windows can drop the cpu to 0.20 ghz and cause numerous blue screen restards
 
Do you get an error code on the blue screen? Or is it a blue screen rather than BSOD?
Reset bios, do a sytem repair, if not a restore?

If it's working now, I suspect windows spazzed out because reasons.

I've found standby/hibernation stuff on Windows 10 can do some odd stuff especially with fastboot - sometimes its like the file gets slight corruption that never goes away and causes random issues until you reset it by manually deleting or toggling the sleep and fastboot settings on and off. My Windows 10 tablet has done it a couple of times where certain screen elements are duplicated fuzzily over the screen usually the cursor and loading icons and other whacky things - at first I thought the GPU memory was failing.
 
Well now an old problem is back

Computer sometimes fails to boot, dies then restarts into bios saying everything is back to default.

Im just using the premade overclock for my cpu (option says 5820k 4.2ghz) in the gigabyte bios and xmp.

why? :'(
 
Run everything at stock. Run memtest 86, make sure everything passes then give a Prime95 on blend a go for an hour or so. Then use your computer as normal for a day or two. If stable in all cases, re-apply your overclock. Don't use the crappy auto-overclocking software/BIOS options as it's always dog ****. Find a guide to overclocking your chip on here or OCN; there's loads of stuff. Or have a look in the 8pack thread.

What is your motherboard and what PSU are you using?
