I seem to be having a similar issue, but not because of a memory leak, or an insufficient power supply however I get the blue screen message asking me to "reinstall windows" when I overclock my ram from 2133mhz to 2400mhz. Now let me explain, I know my mobo can handle 2400mhz because its stated on the box, and on the website I bought it from, as well as listed in the BIOS itself. I have Kingston Hyperx fury 2X4 8GB ram in dual channel with out the box clocks at 1866mhz, my motherboard is a Gigabyte A88XM-D3H, and I am using an AMD A10 7870K as well. I manage to clock the ram from 1866mhz to 2133mhz, but the only way I am able to do that is if I set the voltage to 1.6V, and if I go up to 2400mhz, then I get crashes that send me to a blue screen, and sometimes the system won't boot at all.
I've read about plenty of people managing to clock this exact same ram to 2400mhz and even a little higher, but for some reason when I try to do it just doesn't seem to want to work. I've tried adjusting the voltage again to , adjusting the timings (unfortunately I'm not that knowledgeable of timings to really understand what I'm doing here, but I get the jist of it), as well as messing with the North Bridge clock speeds. Now here is the weird thing about the North Bridge, I understand that it is suppose to be 3x the frequency of my ram's clock speeds, but when I set the NB anywhere past 2100mhz, then the system crashes. Which is quiet odd because my manual states that it supports up to 6000mhz OC for the North Bridge, so I'm not understanding this part. You true clock speed is half the ram's base which is 1866/2=933, so in theory my NB OC speed should be 2799, but like I said it will just crash.
With that being said, the whole point is that since I'm relying solely on the APU, for now, I don't have a dedicated GPU in my system, so I really need to advantage off as much power as I can squeeze out of this system, meaning ram speeds, or anything and I know I can get more it just won't budge for me. Also, I have updated BIOS and everything, so could someone be kind enough to help resolve my issue?
