Okay, so I just finished my system upgrade to Ryzen+ and I've been playing around with my system for a couple hours. I decided to run a couple benchmarks and do some "gentle" overclocking on my 1060 6gb. I had it running well with 120% extra power limit at +150 core, +300 memory. And then I got cocky. I set it to +200 core, +350 memory, and started up Unigine Valley, only for it to instantaneously crash. So now my system won't post, and I have no video, as well as a VGA error light on. I have already attempted the following in troubleshooting:
Hard reset by holding power button, turning off power supply, unplugging cable from PSU, and holding power button again to drain the pent up electricity.
Clear CMOS by shorting CMOS header.
Clear CMOS by removing CMOS battery. Forgot to check for a CMOS battery charge.
Clear CMOS by doing both aforementioned methods at the same time.
Removed and reseated GPU.
Removed and reseated GPU in 8x slot instead of x16 slot.
Placed GPU in another system where it booted without problem and immediately started displaying 4k.
I seem to remember having a problem with this GPU in the past not liking ErP, which is turned on in the BIOS right now, but I can't get a post or picture in order to shut it off. Please help! I can't use my system I just spent 520 bucks upgrading.
