Today marks an exciting day - we are officially launching our new page over at http://vessel.com/linustechtips!
Of course, some of you may be wondering what exactly Vessel is... So before Linus took off to Asia, he created this video:
We also have an FAQ thread where you can ask questions about or make suggestions for the service at http://bit.ly/linusfeedback
As Linus mentions in that video, you can sign up for a full year of Vessel, absolutely FREE for the first 72 hours after launch! (March 24, 2015 @ 12:01am PST - March 26, 2015 @ 11:59pm PST)
We also have an official Vessel FAQ and Feedback thread, which you can view here. Linus and the rest of our team will be monitoring that thread, reading every post made over there, so ask any questions you may have and we will answer them to the best of our ability!

Please refrain from asking questions like this. They are of no help for us to recommend you parts, and you only cause trouble with fanboys, resulting in a derailed thread. Give a budget, form factor and then it is easier to help.
BSODs are pretty easy to solve. Download Bluescreenview, Google your stop code and make the changes.
These are the most common overclocking related Stop codes
0x101 = increase vcore 0x124 = increase/decrease vcore or QPI/VTT... have to test to see which one it is 0x0A = unstable RAM/IMC, increase QPI first, if that doesn't work increase vcore 0x1E = increase vcore 0x3B = increase vcore 0x3D = increase vcore 0xD1 = QPI/VTT, increase/decrease as necessary, can also be unstable Ram, raise Ram voltage 0x9C = QPI/VTT most likely, but increasing vcore has helped in some instances 0x50 = RAM timings/Frequency or uncore multi unstable, increase RAM voltage or adjust QPI/VTT, or lower uncore if you're higher than 2x 0x109 = Not enough or too Much memory voltage 0x116 = Low IOH (NB) voltage, GPU issue (most common when running multi-GPU/overclocking GPU) 0x7E = Corrupted OS file, possibly from overclocking. Run sfc /scannow and chkdsk /r
EDIT: BSODs are never good, to answer the question, 10/10
I have only ever used the h60 and h80 on an AMD platform, but as far as i know (because they both still come with intel mounting hardware), is it probably would be more secure after mounting. I recommend that you test mount with the current setup to determine if the block mounts well, or if something is stripped or missing.
For anything its always good to test fit and plan everything, research is key. Best of luck and good job on your PC building
