Hello everyone, I'm facing an issue when trying to overclock my i5-3570K beyond 3.6 GHz. Every time I push it past that speed, the system enters a boot loop and resets the CMOS. The machine is running on an MSI Z77A-GD55. Anyone have any advice or solutions?

Do you possess the most recent BIOS version? Have you adjusted the vCore voltage (CPU voltage)?

I have the latest BIOS and attempted to raise the vCore.
