Red screens often stem from the graphics card, but did you also overclock the GPU? In any case, you should revert all your overclocks—RAM, CPU, and GPU—to their original stock clocks. Next, verify your PSU; a low-quality or insufficient power supply can cause similar issues. After confirming a stable PSU that can handle overclocking, you can attempt the overclocking process again, using prime95 to validate the stability of your changes.
