I've been having issues with battlefield 4, that I can't blame on anything else but my factory overclocked CPU i7-4770K @ 3.50GHz overclocked to 4.4GHz

been having some red screen crashes in battlefield 4 multiplayer. nothing else seems to suggest a problem than over-clocked CPU

tried some changes in bios and ran some tests.

Since i'm not an expert, could anyone please give some advice on the results.

If your system does not crash and you are experiencing graphics glitches in the game, you can sort out the CPU and focus on the GPU.

Either way, you should be 150% sure that your GPU is doing fine and your CPU is really the problem, but imo your CPU is doing fine.
