Not long ago I wanted to get my CPU up to 3.7Ghz by O.C. a bit more. However, I kept getting frequent BSOD's with different error messages. So my question is, are the BSOD's coming directly from the unstable overclock or are they coming from something else? I went back to 3.66Ghz and the BSOD's were rare, however I don't think that an O.C. to 3.7Ghz causes instability. I have a great CPU cooler so temps are not an issue.
