That means your overclock is not stable. You need to give it more voltage.

Yepp, i upped it to max, then everything went fine with Kombustor

So i had this new rx 580, a gaming x from MSI specifically with 8gb vram, so i tried this overclock at 1400Mhz with 2250 Mhz and + 5 voltage. I did the cooler boost in the gaming app so that, in theory, i wont experience thermo thorttling.
So the overclock works fine, but then after a few hours of gaming, witcher 3 on ultra with a cpu of i3 6100 specifically, game crashes, says drivers died but recovered... after i restart, its back to the stock clock speed which is 1380. Am I doing something wrong here? Because that was just a small over clock, just 20 Mhz above the stock clock speed. Also, as you can tell, im a beginner in the overclocking game. Any help would truly be appreciated. Thank you
