After reading the page about overclocking i5 2500k on CUSTOM PC magazine. I tried to do the same. Then now my computer just on about 2-3 sec then turn off again, this cycle repeat non stop :( .


What could i do ? Does my mainboard die?
 
Can you still enter the BIOS? If so, then go to the BIOS and undo the overclock.

If not, then wait until your computer fails to boot a few times. After a few failed attempts, your BIOS should reset to factory defaults, thereby eliminating your overclock.
 
@TheSmartGuy : thank you for reply. I took the battery of CMOS out then waiting for around 30 minutes, now it is working again :)
