WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR

[Slyskel]

So I was rendering a video and all of a sudden my computer crashed displaying the error "WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR." I'm assuming it's got something to do with my CPU, but I'm no expert on this.

 

Any advice?

It's a bad overclock. That's the error you get when you've pushed it too far.

Its a CPU related crash, usually encountered when an overclock isnt stable.

 

Is your CPU at stock settings or OCed?

It's OCed. I didn't do it myself, I used software to do it, so I assumed it was stable.

Well it isnt, and it doesnt seem you've stress tested it. 

 

Automatic software overclocks arent automatically stable, set it back to stock speed and read up on some overclocking guides and learn how to stress test for stability before overclocking.
