So i have a GTX 470 and im overclocking it pretty well right now, and i frequently get error code 116. But i have NO idea what it means, i have read conflicting reports. Some say that it is lack of voltage to my PCI-e controller and some say that its teh card itself. My board is teh ASrock Z68 E3, with an I5 2500K. Any help would be appreciated. Also, how do i put in my system specs?
 
Bugcheck 116 means that the graphics card driver stopped responding to Windows.

This isn't a very helpful error, as all it means is that your graphics subsystem, both hardware (GPU, motherboard, PCIe controller, CPU, RAM, PSU) or software (graphics drivers) is unstable.

Perhaps you are running buggy drivers which are unstable. Perhaps your card is faulty. Perhaps, you are overclocking your card beyond it's limits, and it is malfunctioning.

Thank you very much. I tried several drivers and they all do the same thing. I thought it was the PCI-e controller not getting enough voltage. So do you know how to raise that?
