Hardware failure !??

[ANDR3WS]

Im getting redirected to a http://www.warframe.com/en/hardwarefail whenever I start up warframe and I don't know why I have a i7 6700k and a msi gtx 1070. All my other games run perfectly fine. I have played this game before without any problems but i haven't been on a a couple weeks now I come back I get this issue. Any tips on how to fix this?

Yes i have and the only one that should potentially cause the problem is the overclocked part but i tried to fix that and it still shows up the error

Overclocked CPUs and GPUs have been known to not mesh well with Warframe , I suggest making sure your CPU and GPU are running at stock clocks and that your drivers are fully updated. If you're still experiencing crashes, you should send in a Support Ticket and make sure to include your EE.log right after you crash (starting the game back up wipes your old EE.log and starts a new one, and support needs the EE.log that contains data leading up to the crash).

You may need to submit a DxDiag.txt as well so that support staff can see what hardware and software you're currently running.

Then remove that overclock and try again. It's in no way game's fault if it's failing to start because you have overclocked something. Different games stress hardware in different ways and WF is clearly doing something that is not stable on your clocks.

I already removed them but it still wont load i have summited a support ticket also.

Considering a lot of things come already factory overclocked... Probably should look into the issue of Warframe not liking overclocked things.

YES they should i would need to overclock my cpu and gpu whenever i want to play another game besides warframe and then do the opposite to play it? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ its a little much.

Why, with a 6700K and 1070 do you need to over clock at all?

I have an old 4690K and a 970 GTX. I don't overclock for any game and have no need to. Do you insist on playing every game at 100+ FPS?

I do have a Gsnyc setup which, if you do not, may be my advantage over your newer hardware.

keep in mind, that some graphic card are already overclocked by the manufacturer (especially the pro-gamer versions). you might want to try lowering the clock of you gpu and maybe of the gc-memory too (though, the main problem seem the gpu).
i had this trouble with 3 nvidia cards already and always needed to use an overclock program to lower the clock to prevent this crashes (i use the MSIafterburner program btw). a not-gamer card (which i run atm, does not give any trouble in this regard).

no it's not too much - running oc-hardware is always on your own risk and would never be recommended nor demanded by any software dev. it's like running your car in the red zone of the engine speed - it'll wotk, but it also risk consequences of damaging the engine or adjected parts of it. in your case, the consequences are a game that crashes because of overclocking (also, oc electronics WILL age much faster and therefore fail sooner than in normal mode).

Well i run at 1440p and i have a 165hz monitor so if i want to max out my games i need more power so i OC

I never asked for them to demand overclocking but the fact that it wont work with overclocked GUPs or CPUs is what is annoying. I dont have any other game with this problem and for a game with as many players as warframe loads of people will be using overclocked GPUs and CPUs so it shouldn't be this much of a problem.

He's using 60hz, he's not going to understand our struggle.

well, i don't code video games, but i do know what is involved 3D engines , and it sure is not THAT easy to change the core-code of one - and when this core is cranky to oc-hardware, it's not a question of changing a few lines of code to get this quirk out of it.
sure, they should have though about it from the start, but on the other hand, what does we know about the core of the use engine? it might be still from a time when graphic cards weren't usually overclocked like they are till a few years back.
btw, i do know some more games that doesn't deal well with oc-cards too - some only act up in rather minor ways but others do just what happens to you, they crashes on unpredictable moments and sometimes even bring the whole system down with them. i sure had a share of freezes, ctd and bsod with oc-cards.
also, lets keep in mind that even with everyting just peachy with the hardware, warframe loves to crash on occasion . that might be not why DE chooses to call wf sill beta, but it does fit in well too.
anyway, your best solution is using a program like the MSIafterburner, set up a profile for warframe that should automatically reduce the clocks when the game is started and return it back when warframe is ended. you really can't have it more convienient like that (only, by replacing your gc, maybe ^^)

It's not because of overclocked parts. I myself have my CPU overclocked but it's 100% stable. If you have issues even in one game that means the clocks are not stable and you should either raise voltage or not use them at all. Unstable clocks will also cause lots of errors that you will not notice, they're bad for your whole OS not just one game. You should always test new CPU clocks by running prime95 for at least 15 minutes but many prefer to leave it running for hours or even days to guarantee that their system is 100% stable. For GPUs the latest Unigine benchmark is always a good choice but they're a lot more complex so you might still face issues in some games.

My clocks are fine had no issues on any other game and as i said i removed them and it still didn't work anyway.
