Every time I play GTA or render, my computer freezes and I have to restart it. Once it restarts, it shows the message "overclocking failed!" My 5960x is already overclocked at 4.7ghz. I've tried increasing the voltage to 1.36v and then 1.37v, but it didn't help. The rest of my setup is still working fine.

Based on this thread, it seems you're significantly boosting the speed to 4.7 GHz.
