BDOS Errors with Overclock settings help!

[anixan]

Hi,

I recently built a new PC and have begun overclocking, all be it only slightly as you can see from the spec below:

Components:
MSI Z87-GD65 Gaming Motherboard
R9 290X Lightning Graphics Card
Intel 4770k CPU
Vengeance® Pro Series — 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3 DRAM 2400MHz

Overclock Settings:
Core Volts: 1.2
Core CPU Speed: 4300MHz
Memory: 2400MHz

As soon as I have put the overclock settings in place I have started getting BSOD errors intermittently. The errors are listed below and I would appreciate any help I can get in resolving this.

SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION x03B
IRQL_GT_ZERO_AT_SYSTEM_SERVICE x04A
Also once the screen went all distorted like the interference on an old TV! :S

Thanks in advance

could be memory related,voltage/setting

irql error

id try with and without xmp,manually setting them up

Common BSOD Error Codes for Overclocking

0x101 = increase vcore
0x124 = increase/decrease QPI/VTT first, if not increase/decrease vcore...have to test to see which one it is
on i7 45nm, usually means too little VVT/QPI for the speed of Uncore
on i7 32nm SB, usually means too little vCore
0x0A = unstable RAM/IMC, increase QPI first, if that doesn't work increase vcore
0x1A = Memory management error. It usually means a bad stick of Ram. Test with Memtest or whatever you prefer. Try raising your Ram voltage
0x1E = increase vcore
0x3B = increase vcore
0x3D = increase vcore
0xD1 = QPI/VTT, increase/decrease as necessary, can also be unstable Ram, raise Ram voltage
0x9C = QPI/VTT most likely, but increasing vcore has helped in some instances
0x50 = RAM timings/Frequency or uncore multi unstable, increase RAM voltage or adjust QPI/VTT, or lower uncore if you're higher than 2x
0x109 = Not enough or too Much memory voltage
0x116 = Low IOH (NB) voltage, GPU issue (most common when running multi-GPU/overclocking GPU)
0x7E = Corrupted OS file, possibly from overclocking. Run sfc /scannow and chkdsk /r

BSOD Codes for Sandy and Ivy Bridge/Haswell

0x124 = add/remove vcore or QPI/VTT voltage (now usually Vcore, once it was QPI/VTT)
0x101 = add more vcore
0x50 = RAM timings/Frequency add DDR3 voltage or add QPI/VTT
0x1E = add more vcore
0x3B = add more vcore
0xD1 = add QPI/VTT voltage
“0x9C = QPI/VTT most likely, but increasing vcore has helped in some instances”
0X109 = add DDR3 voltage
0x0A = add QPI/VTT voltage

As above,Stop 3B, increase Vcore man! The Stop 4A can point towards RAM, do you have the Intel XMP set for the memory in UEFI? Or your RAM voltage set to the correct value, this will be indicated on the RAM (label) itself. You can try Memtest to help diagnose RAM faults. What PSU do you have out of interest?
Check for stability after increasing your CPU Vcore by 50mV (0.05V) increments. I recommend ASUS ROG Realbench
When overclocking, remember it takes time! and a lot of patience! Don't just dial in a multiplier and/or voltage and go for it!
