Who bears the responsibility? The issue lies with Windows 10 or the overclocking?
Windows 10 is operating smoothly on my system now, but a recurring issue still happens. Occasionally, during high CPU usage (such as gaming), the system shuts down unexpectedly. Is a stable overclock in Windows 8.1 indicative of stability in Windows 10?
I would revert the overclock and simply save the settings. If another crash occurs, it could indicate a hardware issue or a problem with Windows 10. I would avoid raising the voltage since it might not clarify whether the clock instability exists or if there are compatibility problems with the operating system.
It should remain a reliable clock for as long as it was consistently stable in Windows 8.1 initially. When I moved from Windows 7 to Windows 8, there were significant problems with my custom hardware that hadn't been properly secured yet. I advise you to revert your overclocking until Windows 10 offers better stability. If the issue persists, file a ticket with Microsoft and revert to Windows 8.1.

I would revert the overclock and simply save the settings. If another crash occurs, it could indicate a different hardware issue or that Windows 10 is involved. I wouldn't raise the voltage, as it might not clarify whether the clock instability or OS compatibility problems are at play.
Just returned to the stock. On the first start, Windows 10 would remain idle at the login screen after entering the password, until I pressed Ctrl+Alt+Del and restarted the computer. The second boot is now working properly. I'll follow up if any problems arise.

Windows 10 has some minor issues, but these are typical for early users. Most functions work well, though I've had to reduce my GPU overclock by 50Mhz in Win 10. It might be driver-related, but I'm hopeful. I occasionally experience random game freezes, but not too often. With more updates and driver patches, things should improve. I still prefer Windows 10 overall.

Windows 10 has some quirks, but it's normal for this version. Most of my setup works well, and games run without major issues. I had to reduce my GPU overclock by 50Mhz in Windows 10, possibly due to driver concerns. Occasional game freezes occur, but not too frequent. With more updates and drivers, things should improve. I generally prefer Windows 10, though I anticipate some instability when moving from 8.1 to 10, similar to past upgrades. As long as it gets better, I'm okay.
It just reverted the XMP profile, now operating at 1333mhz instead of 2400mhz.
