I'm new to oveclocking. I bought a 2500k with an asus P8P67 rev 3.0 back in October.
I've set the CPU multiplier to 42 and I've been experiencing weird bugs since.

The room where I'm installed is very hot (no AC, maybe 30C). I ran prime 95 for 2 hours and everything looked fine. The cpu never got over 71 Celcius with the 212 cooler I have installed.

However since overclocking I've noticed weird issues like computer taking 2 tries to boot (I hear the fan starting to spin, nothing, starts to spin again and goes to post), and sometimes not being able to wake it from sleep.

Any ideas?

Here are the complete specs :

Windows 7 ultimate x64
Intel i5 2500k
Asus P8P67 rev 3.0
8gb Kingston 1333 DDR3 kit
Hypercooler 212+
Antec Truepower TP-650 650W
Sapphire HD6870
WD caviar black 1TB



VVV Great, thanks for the quick response! :)
