Gpu - r9 390
Cpu - i5 6600k
Motherboard - z170a sli plus
Powersupply - evga 850 b2
Ram - 2 8g crucial ddr4
I am just starting with overclocking. I mostly use my computer every day. I managed to get my CPU to run at 4.6 GHz with 1.35 V, and it stayed stable after stress tests using prime95.
But when I used MSI afterburner to boost the GPU, it crashed during several stress tests. After the crash, my PC kept restarting until it finally booted up again. I adjusted the overclock settings to 1100 core clock, 1525 memory, +50% power and +50 mv voltage, then reset everything and ran another stress test.
The computer still crashed and went black, then restarted repeatedly. I turned the power supply back on but nothing worked. Any advice?

begin the pc, press the del key to enter bios.
launch with safe mode enabled.
remove your oc profile, configure gpu to default settings.

Turned off after leaving it on for an hour
Still want to understand how to avoid this next time
