PC Shutdown Following Overclock Implementation
PC Shutdown Following Overclock Implementation
PC specifications include an i7 13700K processor, RTX4070ti graphics card, 32GB DDR5 RAM (two sticks), 6TB SSD with PCIe 4 storage, and a Gigabyte B760 Gaming X AX motherboard. I previously used an Intel XTU after discovering that the motherboard’s overclocking features were limited, though the Core and voltage settings were fixed. Adjusting multipliers for the E cores often led to immediate thermal throttling, and any changes in advanced settings would cause the system to shut down and display a BIOS recovery screen.
For reference, I performed a Userbenchmark PC Test and it indicated that my GPU was overperforming while my CPU was underperforming significantly. The GPU score was 251%, and the CPU score was 116%. I plan to run a Cinebench test to verify these findings.
