Hi everyone, yesterday I tried to overclock my PC by increasing the clock speed to 1200MHz from 1070MHz at Wattman. It worked well during a 20-minute stress test at 60°C, but today it shows a gigabyte splash screen very quickly, then disappears. After about a second it appears a mouse icon and vanishes. I’m sure the issue is related to insufficient power. I’ve removed the CMOS battery and tried the CMOS switch, but nothing changed. Please help me out.

Do you have an alternative GPU you'd like to check? You definitely messed it up, you can look up how to fix it and update it. Just make sure to switch it to post mode or safe mode if needed.

Do you have a different GPU you'd like to check? You should look up instructions on how to reset it and fix the issue. Make sure to mention that you made a mistake so I can help further.
