No issue! Running a stress test similar to OCCT or XTU for an hour will confirm stability.

KeelinTy explained the situation clearly, mentioning they ran a stress test similar to occt or xtu for an hour to verify stability. They also shared their experience with Dota 2 freezing issues and restarting games, noting it often caused problems. Arma 3 performed without issues.

Consider reducing the overclock by 01x or adjusting the core voltage by 0.005v. Check if these changes improve performance. Try starting with a voltage adjustment first.

Consider reducing the overclock by a factor of one point five or increasing the core voltage slightly. Check if these adjustments improve stability. I’ll try adjusting the voltage next.

That seems unusual. Would you like to reset the CMOS and attempt the overclock again?

That's odd. Try resetting the CMOS and retrying the overclock?
I've been playing Arma 3 and it keeps freezing, and it sounds like a robot is talking.

Was das Zurücksetzen des CMOS und der erneute Überlauf von mir ausgeführt?

Did you reinstall CMOS and perform a new overclock? I didn't reset the CMOS, but I just reverted the BIOS temporarily; it should work better next time. If it occurs again, I'll let you know.

You definitely have a faulty chip. Your signature shows what you can achieve with a solid one.
Increasing the speed is like taking a risk—gambling.
My 3570k can hit 4.3Ghz, but it sometimes crashes. I had to lower it to 4.1Ghz for stability, even at 1.35V. I own a high-quality cooler and a premium motherboard, yet I still aim for 4.6Ghz!
I also have two Phenom II processors with identical builds—one overclocked to 4GHz, the other capped at 3.45Ghz.

Lodders:
Yes you received a "bad" chip... Your signature shows what you can achieve with a solid one.
Overclocking feels like betting your money.

I own two Phenom II Quad cores, identical builds—one overclocked to 4GHz, the other capped at 3.45Ghz.
Yeah, I bought an MSI Z87 G45 a few months back and thought it was one of the best boards (ready for Haswell overclocking). But I realized I got the worst chip.
