I recently upgraded to a brand spanking new i7 2600k system running Win7. Everything was fine for about 2 weeks untill it started to randomly restart whilst gaming. At first it did this maybe twice a week, but now it does it every half an hour or so :confused:.

The restart is quite strange as it doesnt blue, black or any other screen, it just goes from ingame to boot logo in no time at all. I thought this was a tempurature isssue at first, so I checked the CPU, which was 42c under load. Then I checked my GPU, which didnt reach above 50c whilst playing GTA4 on close to max settings.

The other thing is that the CPU came pre overclocked from OcUK @ 4.6Ghz. Could this be unstable?

My specs:

Asus P8P67 Deluxe B3
Intel i7 2600k
4Gb of some ram that I cant quite remember :p
Asus GTX560Ti
XFX 850w PSU

Any help to fix this would be appreciated. Cheers. :D

Click to expand...

It's possible that the clock is unstable but you will need to post in the 'Bundles and sytems support forum' - link - for further assistance from an OcUK staff member (Thye're usually lurking and are very helpful)

They will be able to better advise you as to what to do.

Alternatively - you could drop the sytsem to stock settings to see if it erradicates the problem (but be sure that you have an OcUK profile - your clock setting- saved in the BIOS)

But, i would choose the system support forum...
