But as a general question, can a slow RAM, with no hardware defects, be a reason for cpu OC to be unstable?Įdit: yes, I do not know that my specs are already on my sig. Of course when I lower the multiplier, the error is gone, but would it be possible that my ram is not fast enough for a 5ghz CPU overclock? I asked as I have not tested other kits with faster mhz. And the result, I still get the driver error when I test with cpu Overclocked. did the above tests with only one module and passedĪfter not seeing errors, I decided to swap the kit to my spare, slower RAM. did another test with cpu overclocked and passed As also my time is running low, I settled to test the hardware that most search results I did came up to - RAM. Aida64 (FPU only) and Prime95 can replicate the error in at least 5 mins.Īs I believe I looked at most the software part of things, I researched if this is also hardware related.
When I got the time, I did a couple of stability tests, 1 is RealBench and 2 is Aida64, finally, the long term stress test, was good, I updated all outdated drivers (vga, chipset, BIOS, etc) and reinstall all others (I don't have many installed besides games) then I fired up some of the most demanding stress test I know.
I had the above error from a while but kinda ignored it coz I assumed it's a driver issue.
