How did you narrow it down to the PSU?

When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list them like so:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:

You can upload the video/audio clip using YT or another file hosting site and then parse the link to the content onto this thread.

As for your issue, I suspect the issue is with your motherboard unable to deal with the ram overclock, likely a BIOS issue.

How old is the Coolermaster PSU mentioned above?
