i5 6600k on Windows 8.1
Adjusted vcore to 1.3 and CPU clock to 4.6, but everything became unstable—BSODs, logo hangs, etc. Eventually gave up and used "load optimized defaults" to revert. Now it still happens after each reboot.

My PC actually started working, probably because I didn't wait long enough. It took around 10 minutes. Now I'm thinking about how to achieve a stable OC, so I might try Gigabyte's Easytune next.
