Hello everyone, I was just checking if it's fine to use this OC. When I run Prime95, I get a BSoD after 5-10 minutes. During CPU stress testing on AIDA64, it seems stable. However, during FPU tests on AIDA64, I again encounter a BSoD. But while gaming, I haven't had any issues or BSoD. Should I keep this OC?

Good day, everyone. I'm trying to understand why I receive a BSoD when stressing the FPU at Aida64, but not during regular CPU testing. Is there a reason for this difference? Also, should I test the FPU as well during stress conditions or is it sufficient to perform a CPU-only test?
Your decision depends on the situation, but in my view, a blue screen in Prime 95 suggests the CPU isn't fully stable at that clock speed. If everything else works fine, you might be okay with it...
Your decision is up to you, but in my view, a blue screen in Prime 95 suggests the CPU isn't fully stable at that clock speed.... If you're confident it works perfectly elsewhere, you might tolerate it... It's been about a week since I've experienced no BSoD during app execution. But after stress testing my CPU with Prime95 or running FPU tests via Aida64, it crashes automatically.
