Windows Crash

ABehery

Hello,

I have an R7 1700 slightly overclocked to 3.7 Ghz and I have stress tested it multiple ways and it did not fail me so far. Though, I get windows crashes randomly every now and then with crash code: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, and I wonder whether this is related to an unstable overclock or not.

 

Thank you.

The IRQ BSOD can happen any time, it could be a bad driver, a slight instability from an overclock, even a virus/crack/malware.

 

It means a program tried to access a prohibited memory address, which of course can be made by accident, on purpose or randomly by a real time pointer corruption. (a.k.a: bad overclock or bad memory).

You might get now why i'm gonna say: NOT ENOUGH INFORMATION TO INFER CAUSE.
