Finding Faulty Part

[o0HACKRCHILD0o]

So I've been to this forum before for help about this problem. Basically I have a few problems with my PC for example my CPU requires a fair bit of voltage (@4.2Ghz @1.250v), and I have to have the offset set too -0.170 and cannot run fixed without crash, to run at an over clocked rate (without over clocking it tries to send a massive amount of voltage to it automatically and I cannot run on a fixed voltage without crashing, at all.) and gets very very hot (can hit 90 on 100% load but never peaks) after re applying heat sink multiple times with the same result. But that's not the issue I have that reasonably under control now. My issue is that when I run my ram at stock clocks (which is 2133mhz), or close clock such as 2200mhz, wether i enter everything manually or use xmb settings it will not post the LEDs will come on the tower and then it will cut out after about 5 seconds. I currently have it running at 2000mhz. This will be repeated 3 times and then it will boot with the setting reset. It defaults the ram too 1600mhz. My specs are: CPU: 3570k Mobo: Asrock z77 extreme 4 Ram: G.Skill ripjaws X series 2133mhz Video Card: Asus r9 280x PSU: Corsair CX750M

Try re-seating your RAM, get a CPU cooler if you have the stock one, make sure the rest of your hardware is properly in place.

You may need to replace your power supply if so use this as a guide to purchase your new one, http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html.

Update all drivers/bios, scan for viruses etc.

The reason for your unstable overlclock is because the stock RAM frequency your CPU can handle comfortably is 1600. You need to make sure that if you are going to overclock your RAM your CPU can handle it. Your PSU isn't the issue

Agreed on the RAM part, the CX750 on the other hand I had to replace personally, not good for OCing.

Hi guys thanks for the reply, I'm not really here asking about my OC and stuff. Also my rams stock frequency is 2133mhz. All I want to do is run it at stock but the PC cuts out when I do this

Ram has also been reaseated and I'm running a hyper EVO 212

I know your stock speed is 2133. However in order for you to run it at that speed, your motherboard needs to be able to support that speed as well as your CPU. Now your motherboard definitely supports that speed but your CPU doesn't. That's a problem because the memory controller is in the CPU and it decides it can't handle 2133MHz then it decrease the frequency to something it can handle which is what you are experiencing
