EDIT: SOLVED - OC was the issue. See bottom post.
Hi,
My system is constantly locking up (BSOD) in VR under Windows 10 every 30-40 minutes or so. The error I get is one of 2, either the watchdog timeout BSOD, or a IRQL message.
It has occurred through all Nvidia driver and Windows updates over the past 5 months and it is still happening.
My hardware:
ASUS P6t
Xeon 5670 OC'd @4.2gHz
Inantek USB3.0 card (recommended by Oculus)
Asus GTX 1070 Strix OC
Texas instruments FW card
16GB Sniper RAM
Samsung 850 SSD's
Corsair 620w power supply
All audio and video drivers are up to date as far as I know and the device manager shows nothing suspicious.
I have even re installed Windows 3 times on different SSD's and prioritised Oculus specific software and drivers, but the problem persisits.
Oculus support are no help what so ever.
I am at my wits end and no matter what combination of BIOS settings, tests, driver settings, Windows settings I try, none of it seems to make any difference.
I'm thinking of setting this system on fire an buying a new ASUS mobo and Intel 6700k but I really cannot afford that at this stage...
Seriously, any help on this one would be much much appreciated.
