Crashing while gaming after 20Hours stability test

[Yoave717]

A few days ago i re-overclocked my CPU because I got a new GPU and i wanted to do it right this time. Everything went nice and well got the CPU to almost 4.5GHz after 20Hours of stability test with aida64. So i thought this time its ok and it wont crashed on me while gaming. Day later I started playing Battlefield 4 and for an hour or so everything went good and then it crashed(BSOD).


Specs:
CPU-i7 4770K
MB- Asus Sabertooth z87
Cooling - Corsair H115i
Ram - 16GB 1866MHz(G.skill ares)
GPU- GTX 1070 XTREME Gaming
PSU - Corsair rm750

BSOD- whea_uncorrectable_error

Yeah, really, increase your voltage or decrease clocks. It's so easy.

But how is it still crashing if it was stable for 20Hours with no breaks ?

Unstable OC.
It can crash after 100 hours.
Just you pushed CPU with another type of load (games).
Also aida64 not very good stability test. Try RealBench.

I had the same issue when using Aida64 for I switched to OCCT. However, no matter which software you use - the real life stability testing (running the applications/games you use) is what counts. Like Verbrannt said, up your vcore or lower your clock.

Usually a 0.010V bump in Vcore will do the trick as long as your temps are still staying below 80C

yea, oh well I don't want to fiddle with it to much am happy set at 1390 for safety although it didn't bsod at any lvl just throttled any higher. also to no I'm pretty sure my graphics card is a 6+2
