Yes, it is likely that the problem lies on the voltage or frequency of your sata/usb controller. You could try, if you mobo has a separated one, to use USB connected to that one instead and keeping the OC on the CPU. Otherwise you have to reduce the clock or better tune the Voltage.

My pc is getting stuck on post screen with ROG logo along with an error code 64. I had my cpu overclocked ever since I built my pc but 2-3 days ago i increased the overclock slightly and since then I am getting this error(can't really say its because of that even after the increased OC it ran fine for a day). Though when I ran prime95 , aida64 and memtest everything was stable, this is something out of the blue.
I have figured a workaround by removing all my peripherals , it seems like after removing my mic (blue snowball ice) it boots up perfectly, also even if its connected and gets stuck if I quickly remove my mic it quickly loads the windows. not sure what's happening!

Is it USB or audio jack based? If the second, it might be a damaged audio circuit on the motherboard.

Is the system stable if you reduce your overclock or completely take it off?

one more thing I have noticed about the motherboard that while checking for overclock its takes 0.5 - 0.7 sec more than it took before completely starting up!

Yes, it is likely that the problem lies on the voltage or frequency of your sata/usb controller. You could try, if you mobo has a separated one, to use USB connected to that one instead and keeping the OC on the CPU. Otherwise you have to reduce the clock or better tune the Voltage.

I'll tune the voltage a bit to check if that helps!
