Hello everybody, I'm facing an issue with overclocking. I increased my FX 8350 to 4.4GHz, set the bus speed multiplier to 20x and the bus speed to 220. It functions properly about 90% of the time, but I often encounter problems starting up the system. During boot-up, especially when the logo appears or the system loads, it freezes. This problem began after the overclocking attempt. I assumed it was a system error, so I reinstalled Windows, but it keeps happening.

how much voltage were you using?
which motherboard do you own (full system specifications)?
what cooling solution for the cpu do you have?
what cpu temperatures were recorded during full load before attempting overclocking?
many aspects need to be taken into account when overclocking

Voltage stands at 1.344V. I checked gradually, adjusting for temperature and consistency.
Details:
Motherboard: Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0
RAM: 16GB DDR3 1866Hz Dual Channel
GPU: GeForce GTX 1060 Aorus Xtreme
Cooler: CoolerMaster V8 GTS
Temperatures remain stable, reaching up to 54°C at the socket, with core temps around 49-50°C.
