Hello! I have a very similar build and received this error.

 

I am curious what you got the OC of the CPU stable at. 

 

I think my problem was voltage related and am going to test that tonight.

Basically ditch the auto OC... looks fancy but is useless...

i managed to OC to 4.8 GHz (stable with custom OC thanks to a friend!)

I added a few millivolts until it wouldn't crash on cinebench 

I now use 4.2 Ghz with no extra voltage though as its pointless to go this high with the OC,

stressing the hardware so much, when all i'm currently doing is playing fallout 4 hihi

Hi my OC failed... i used the z170 auto oc which sets my i5 6600k to 4.2 ghz

Got the message Overclocking failed! please enter setup on the american megatrends page.

Don't use auto OC.

Set you Vcore to 1.35 and your Multiplier to 42. It really should require nothing more than that.

so i managed to reset the bios to standard (so no OC and no changed voltage)

The easy OC seemed very attractive and worked stable throughout a few unigine valley gpu benchmarks.

Even a few reboots worked but suddenly after i let my new pc download my entire steam library when i came back after an hour nothing worked...

Unigine valley is good to test the gpu, but it doesn't really put any stress on the cpu at all.

yeah cos i OC'd both gpu and cpu back then and wanted to see performance...

I didn't plan to spend hours on OC and just went with some settings i found for people with similar hardware

Before the Oc failed i was testing gpu performance aswell but gpu OC did not cause any problems.

I had the same experience with my Asus motherboard, ez tuner (how Asus calls its auto-oc) simply increased the BLCK to 103 and Multiplier to 42 without even touching the voltage.

Stockvoltage for my chip is 1.168 V which is not enough juice for this OC, Asus should know that :P
