I'm really tired of the constant freezing while playing, it's becoming quite bothersome. I did stress tests and it stayed around 73 degrees after setting the overclock to 4.5gh. Then I played a lot of games and they ran smoothly. After that, I spent hours playing Civ and it would freeze with the message "overclock failed." I was confused because this game uses about 20 percent of the CPU, yet it keeps failing. I tried running it at factory clock, but it still froze. All my new parts were upgraded, so I'm really frustrated. I hope someone can help me out.

If it doesn't work, revert to the factory setting and check if it freezes again.
