Overclocking Advice

[Carl Robinson]

I've been recently trying to overclock my system, I've never overclocked before I'm a noob at this.
I bought my components from Overclockers around 18months ago apart from the GPU

my system is

gigabyte ab350-gaming 3 bios version f40

AMD Ryzen 1700x

32 Team force vulcan 3000mhz memory

MSI Geforce 2070 Armor

I got the cpu running at 4ghz with 0.124 offset voltage. I did a stress test in aida64 for 3 hours with temps maxing at 65c, my system booted with the memory at 3000mhz 1.35

I thought everything was good used it for the rest of the day no issues. I turned it off over night the power cable was switched off at the mains. Turned it on next day the system wouldn't boot just black screen it cycled a couple of times and the bios had reset?

Is there anything I've missed when overclocking or do I simply need to keep power going to the system even when off?

Thanks,

It probably means the RAM overclock wasn't quite stable. Sometimes a proper cold boot from absolutely unplugged causes the BIOS to go through its memory training process. If it resets settings that's often because of a failed memory training or similar.
