After CPU change high Temperatures and blue screen of death

[Timothy_56]

Hey!

I have a serious issue and am already very frustrated after trying to solve for several hours. Any help and advice is greatly appriciated!

I changed my Intel I5-7500 against an Intel I7-7700k. I applied the thermal compound right and Cpu cooler also works. After the change my Computer accepted the new Cpu without any noticeable issues. When opening up programs I had a extreme heat increase of about 20-30c. In Idle the Processor would jump from 34-52c and while opening up a program around 60-80c!

After opening a thread here and receiving a few answers leading nowhere, I just accepted it as given and used the computer as normal. After about 2 Hours the Pc showed a Blue screen and said it would restart due to a error. While restarting it showed a differant blue screen and kept restarting with about 10 different error messages without letting me back into windows.

I searched up the possible failures and assumed a Bios reset might help. After resetting the Bios and trying to sort them out afterwards, it still gave me the blue screen over and over again. Blue screen of death!

I tried enabling the function safe boot in my bios and restarting. Since then my computer starts and instantly shuts off again without showing a screen at all.

I havnt overclocked the I7 yet.
The Graphicscard is also not overclocked.
Airflow and cooling is great.

My system Specs:
Xilence XP500R6 500 Watt Netzteil (80+)
Mainboard:Gigabyte GA-H270 Gaming 3, Intel H270
Processor:Intel Core i5 7500 4x 3.4GHz (Now I7 7700K)
Cooler:Scythe Katana 4
RAM:16GB DDR4-RAM PC-2133 (2x 8GB)
Nvidia GeForce GTX1060 6GB, Gigybte OC
SSD 120GB S-ATA3
2000GB S-ATA3, 600MB/Sek.
Soundcard:Creative Soundblaster Z
OS:Windows 10 Home 64-Bit

Again, any help would greatly be appriciated!

Most likely cooler is not properly fastened.
To remove cooler from 1st cpu, you had to turn those black push-pins.
Did you turn them back to original position after removal?
If not, then there would be bad contact between cpu and cooler.

Thanks for the quick reply. Ill check this when I´m back home but that doesnt explain the 10 different error messages does it?

Overheating can lead to all kinds of errors.
Also BSODs usually have some info in them, that helps to determine the problem.

I definitely agree with SkyNetRising, that sounds like improper CPU cooler. If the cooler isn't on quite right, the CPU can sometimes overheat almost instantly, which can lead to the computer shutting off before it even shows a screen. I would do a full reinstall, including rubbing all the thermal paste off and reapplying it. I had a similar problem with a cooler once and your situation sounds the same.
