BSOD 0x0000007F after overclocking

[Doolylol]

Hi guys

I have been playing around with my cpu the last couple of days, and I found a stable overclock of my i5-3570k @ 4,2 GHZ (or so I thought). I have the voltage at a fixed mode of 1.1v and i tested it with Prime95 for 8.5 hours without any errors or warnings.

My temps are around 25-30 c on idle and 60-62 c on full load. I have a Corsair H50, so the cooling is adequate.

But after the 8,5 hours of prime, my computer got a BSOD when I was just web-browsing and playing around with Wordpress. What is the problem?

0x0000007F = increase vcore Try this Memory Frequency ► Your rated RAM frequency

CPU C1E ► Disabled

CPU C3 Report ► Disabled

CPU C6 Report ► Disabled

Package C State Support ► Disabled
Internal PLL Overvoltage ► Enabled
CPU Spread Sectrum ► Disabled
Set ratio to 42 and tune voltage to 1.20 manual

How much should I up the vcore? To about 1,2v?

Thanks for the reply. I will try this now.

This the BSOD I got.

Yes tune voltage to 1.20 manual see if that works.

Okay thanks man. I will try it and report back. I just can't understand how it can pass 8+ hours of prime95, and then crash when I'm just browsing?!

I honestly couldn't tell you why bud.I have passed 8 hours on a prime95 run but crashed when web-browsing. Yes, 8 hours is not enough to push out most of the possibilities of a BSOD so I always do a 12 hour test now. Sometimes i just run intel burn in stress test 50 runs.

I've got to 4,4 GHz @ 1.2v now. It's running at 37-40 C on idle and 70-75 on full load in IBT. I've put it through 50 runs on Intel Burn Test, and I'm going to test it in Prime95 for +12 hours during the night.

Hopefully it's stable now.

Sounds like you have a good chip most ivy bridge i5-3570k need 1.25v for 4.4 -4.5 ghz.

I hope so 🙂

I've had on prime for 12 hours now, temps around 68-70 c. No problems at all. Gonna let it run for 4-5 hours more, and that should do it.
