So i was trying to overclock my E7500. Had my clock first at stock, then 280, tested, was stable. After that I tried 290, tested, stable aswell. Next was 300, but in the first minute of testing I got BSOD that said "IRQL_not_less_or_equal". I reverted the clock back to 290 now. My question is why did this happen? I'm almost sure it was because of the voltages, since it's set to auto. Thanks for your help!

specs:

Smilodon Raidmax with 500W PSU
G31M-GS / G31M-S R2.0
Intel Core 2 Duo E7500
4GB DDR2 RAM
AMD Radeon Sapphire R7 260X GDDR5 2GB OC edition.
