Hi

so i recently upgraded my set up for my gaming PC but have encountered issues with games crashing (not instantly but over time while gaming). My CPU is overclocked and runs at around 4.4 GhZ and my PC runs perfectly fine when i,m not gaming. However I have heard people saying that my motherboard is not designed for that level of performance and i'm wondering if I should put the speed back to the OG 3.8GhZ. My motherboard appears to have issues running my RAM at 4000MhZ and I had to reduce it back down to 2.6GhZ (but I can adjust it a bit higher).

Processor : AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor 3.80 GHz

Installed RAM : Patriot Viper Elite II 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-4000 CL20 Memory

MB : Gigabyte A520M K V2

Storage : 1.82 TB HDD ST2000DM006-2DM164, 119 GB SSD ADATA SU800NS38

Graphics Card : NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti (8 GB)

I know this is not directly linked to overclocking specifically but any help would be appreciated cheers.
