Twice over the past 2 days, my PC has BSOD'd with the 124 code.

My overclock has been perfectly stable at 4.5ghz using 1.35v with a 0.030 offset for the last 6 months.

Why now would it choose to start displaying errors now?
Do I need to increase the offset/vcore or VTT? ( I think VTT is stock)

Graphics card is not overclocked.

124 is most often due to lack of vcore. Try an extra notch and see how it go's.

I think for my 2500k, it could be VTT or vCore. I have to double check my settings, but I'm not sure adding more v's would be the solution as it's been running fine for all this time. I'm getting close to 1.4 and don't really want to over do it.
 
Yeah, i have mine at 1.1 and i've encounted no 124's. Only 101's, silly vcore. :)

I didn't realise it was you bro. How was your Christmas?

Thanks for the details mate. I've been increasing the Vcore previously so may see if I can reduce the offset or the core with an increase of VTT.

Christmas was good thanks mate, yours? My son had a great time and we're having way too many late nights since we're off work for Christmas. Routine is bugger sometimes.
 
You can certainly reduce you're Vcore/offset if the VTT increase helps your issue. :)

Thats great to hear, i bet he did. Well, its christmas.. if you can't stay up late now when can you? :)

Mine was good, just hanging around with the family and the missus family. Was really nice. :)
 
max safe for vtt is 1.2v btw

id only look at raising vtt if you have more than 8gb of memory or the memory is clocked high/tight timings ect

I would try between 1.08v to 1.15v with 16gb

Ok, thanks.

I have set the VTT to 1.08 and the offset to 0.020 from 0.030. We'll see how it goes but I'm not sure when the issue may arise.

It just randomly started after the PC being fine for months and in the space of 2 days, I got 3 BSOD's. The only difference is the PC has been used more as I have been signed off work from the beginning of December, but not sure this would cause it.

PC has been left idle when it happened.

Update #1
Offset reduced to +0.025v and VTT to 1.08v has BSOD'd again.
Offset set back to +0.030v and VTT set to 1.11v will see how it goes

Update #2
PC has been on for a few hours now and nothing went wrong. I think its all ok now.

Thanks for your help!

OK. All was fine yesterday untill I booted up this morning with debug code 0d:

Meaning:
Problem related to memory, VGA card or other devices. Please clear CMOS, re-install the memory and VGA card, and remove other USB, PCI devices.

I'm not going to reinstall the CPU/GPU as I'm pretty sure the issue is with the RAM after the VTT change.

What I need to know is do I increase the VTT or decrease it?
 
Try using a fixed voltage and see how it goes. Could be a combination of both that's causing the crash. VTT & Vcore. You'll just have to test, rinse/repeat until you get it stable.
