Hello. My cpu is oc'ed at 4.4ghz 1.2v. While playing League of Legends or some sort of games for a long period, like 5 hours, with a bunch of google chrome tabs on, I'm getting a bluescreen. Here are the details from it:

I dont know what to do, and from where this comes from. Its very annoying while playing online games that can ruin your game because your pc crashed... If you need more details about my pc, I'll gladly reply back :)

What CPU/Mobo/DRAM/PSU are you running?

If the OC is unstable, it should be obvious pretty quickly. For the system test (this equates roughly to the Prime95 blended torture test) it'll heat up very quickly. Your system will either crash or temps will exceed 90C. You'll want to keep a close eye on temps while it's running - if it hits 90, stop the test. If it stabilizes below 90C, let it run for 10 or 15 minutes.

Then stop it and run it with only "Stress FPU" selected. Same deal as before - watch temps closely and if it stabilizes below 90, let it run for 10-15 minutes.

If on either test your system crashes, you'll want to either dial back your clock or increase your voltage a notch, and retry the test. If it overheats, just...
You can get that code for a number of reasons, usually a hardware fault caused by overheating, driver issues, etc., but an unstable OC would be the first thing I would check. I would try running AIDA64 Compatibility Test and see what comes up with that. Sometimes the fix is as simple as increasing your CPU voltage. You'll also want to run a MemTest to see if it catches a memory error.
 


For how long should I run AIDA64? I'll get to work right now :)

If on either test your system crashes, you'll want to either dial back your clock or increase your voltage a notch, and retry the test. If it overheats, just dial back your clock, as increasing the voltage is unlikely to improve your temps.

This may or may not fix your BSODs, but at least it should eliminate your OC as the culprit. If you end up dialing all the way back to stock and are stilling getting BSODs, you can move on to testing your DRAM and drives.

Edit: I should add, running these tests for 10-15 minutes doesn't conclusively mean your OC is stable. To do that, I would run the Compat Test for at least a couple of hours.
