Failed over clock now pc wont post

[Blaken61]

So I've searched it up did everything to clear the cmos replaced my harddrive and it still wont post the pc turns on but monitors wont also dont know what this means but on the right side of my mother board there is a red light shining that wasn't before.

Specs are

Titan black

3960x

32gb ddr3 ram

And that's all I really know about it any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.

Running DDR3 with threadripper may be part of your issue... lmfao.

 

I know you meant DDR4, now on to real troubleshooting.

 

That little red light is your POST error, next to the light should be some silkscreen on the PCB with some writing. What's that say?

Mainboard?

Sometimes it helps to cut off the power-connection (or psu switched to off) for 10 seconds.

I'm not exactly sure if this is what you mean but from what I can see it says boot_device

Also it's just an extreme edition this rig is from 2012 and was jut givin to me

Ah, no threadripper - it's an I7 with 130w tdp, and it is indeed ddr3.

Please, be more specific about the mainboard you use.

What psu do you use and what overclock did you try?

It's a thermaltake 1200w and the motherboard also says kcc-rmm-msq rampage4e I dont know exactly which one it is because not even the person who gifted it to me was the original owner and my overclock was from what I remember gamer profile 

[Sir0Tek]

It is probably this one: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/RAMPAGE_IV_EXTREME/

How old is the psu, is it from 2012 as well?

So it gave me 4 overclock profile extreme low end extreme gaming and none so I picked gaming it posted then I restarted it and it failed and yes that's my board basically overclocked my CPU and ram to it's best potential for gaming didint specify

[Sir0Tek]

This mainboard is quite a few years old and you put it at extreme gaming with an 130w cpu and a Titan black. I fear that something on the mainboard wasn't up to the task anymore.

Is there a way I can reverse my overclock to fix it or will i need to buy new parts?

With cmos-clear you've already reversed the oc-settings but if some vrm- or capacitor died the mainboard needs at least a repair, if not a replacement.
