Have trouble with overclocking? Let me assist you!
I decided to do a manual overclock of my 8700k yesterday. I dialed in all my settings and ran a few stress tests, finished off with running Prime95 for an hour to check for instabilities. Everything went fine. But then today started to play Destiny 2 and my main screen kept on going black then coming back (computer still running almost like the source was being changed). I changed over my main screen so I was playing on my secondary and that one was fine but the other continued to go blank then come back on again. I checked all the cables and everything was fine, so I thought I would remove the OC that I did. That was about 12 hours ago now and I have had no problems with my screen. Does anyone have any suggestions that would be great. I have had an auto OC on this before and it was fine.

Check what kind of power supply you have and if your graphics drivers are current.
Likely a bit under the v-core capacity. It won’t reach 5GHz even at 1.350V stable. That’s rough, check his sig for more details. Current is around 1.385V.
