Hi, this is my first post on tom's HARDWARE, but I have read quite a few helpful tips from this site! As the title suggests I am overclocking (attempting to OC) a FX-8350 & GTX 1060. I am a complete noob when it comes to overclocking and general power user tasks! Since I built this PC (which was only four days ago) I have gotten nothing but BSOD's and error messages (im running Windows 10 64 bit). My system specs are as follows AMD FX-8350 with stock cooler, PNY XLR8 GTX 1060 6GB, EVGA 600B 600w PSU, Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2x4) DDR3-1600, Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 (rev 6.0), Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal HDD,and finally a Cooler Master N400 case.
- My main questions are:
a. What utilities should I use to OC my GPU & CPU (maybe AOD for the CPU)?
b. Do I have a beefy enough PSU?
c. Do I have enough cooling with the stock CPU fan & if not what is recommended?
d. Why does my PC continually BSOD?
e. Is there possibly any bottlenecking going on?
Thanks in advance, if any further clarification is needed just ask!
