Overclocking the CPU caused a red screen crash.
Overclocking the CPU caused a red screen crash.
Today I tried to push my i5-4690k to 4.2GHz with a core voltage of 1.15v, and everything worked until around 20 minutes into Star Wars: Battlefront. Then the audio stopped and a blank red screen appeared for a few seconds before the PC restarted. This issue has occurred before when overclocking, and I’m not sure if the voltage is too high or too low. My R9 390 GPU isn’t overclocked yet, and I have the newest Crimson drivers. Help is greatly appreciated.
So today, I tried to push my i5-4690k to 4.2GHz and adjusted the core voltage to 1.15v. Everything worked until around 20 minutes into a game, Star Wars: Battlefront, when the audio stopped and a blank red screen appeared. It stayed on for about five seconds before the PC restarted. This situation has occurred before when overclocking, and I’m not sure if the voltage was too high or too low. My R9 390 GPU isn’t overclocked yet, and I have the newest Crimson drivers. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Everything worked until around 20 minutes into Star Wars: Battlefront, when the audio stopped and a blank red screen appeared. It stayed on for about five seconds before the PC restarted automatically. This issue has happened before when I overclocked my CPU, but I’m not sure if the voltage was too high or too low. My R9 390 GPU isn’t overclocked yet, and I have the newest Crimson drivers. Please let me know if you can help.
