A couple of days ago i assembled my brand new pc.

radeon hd 7950
2x corsair vengeance 2x4gb (cmz8gx3m2a1600c9r)
corsair HX1050

after a while, after i had it all sett up with windows and stuff
then i installed crysis 2 and started playing i got a little in to the first scene in the submarine.
Then the pc froze and i lost signal to my monitor, i then i turned the pc off and rebooted .
when the pc rebooted a error message came up "overclocking failed"
even though i havent done any overclocking
i then updated the bios and enabled xmp profile.
i am currently able to run windows, but can play any games or do anything cpu og gpu intesive.
i have tried every ting i can think of.
Please help 😧

I am SOOOOOO glad to hear this. I just built a machine this weekend and made sure everything was set up perfectly and first boot up locked. This happened a couple time and then I wound up doing the whole "which memory stick is bad" game and got the machine up. But last night I left the computer on and woke up to it locked and the monitor black. When I restarted it quickly restarted itself again and said "Overclocking Failed", and I didnt do anything in the bios but leave it as stock.

I am running 4 g.skill F3-17000CL11Q-16GBXL but when I looked at the manufacturers web site this particular chip doesnt have the rampage iv extreme listed, so I ordered the 4 g.skill F3-17000CL11Q-16GBZL which DOES list this motherboard. I sure hope that works because I'm pretty upset that my new rig has problems already.

Well, it sounds like the issue I'm having, too. All of us can't be having the same mess going on. Mine doesn't really lock up, though. It just reboots itself, and I sometimes get the overclock failed error, too. I've got Asus Crosshair V Motherboard, AMD FX-6300 Vishera, Kingston memory tested at 2133MHz (I'm too sleepy to go get the model number again). The home-built computer I'm replacing started turning itself off (without a reboot) after six years of reliable "service", then the temporary rig I built to get me by would freeze and the screen would go dark, and now this one just reboots itself all the time. What's going on? Are the laws of physics changing now, as so many people posting here are having the same issue?

There are a whole heap of factors that could be causing these things, it is best to be platform specific and try to deal with the individual instances in a systematic way.

well later i found out that it was a videocard problem sooo..
