Started to get crashes in games, one person told me to run OCCT test, seems like my CPU is cooked. Any advice what to do in this kind of situation? 

 

Thank you.

Download and run the Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool (IPDT) that can be downloaded from here . Be aware this will stress the CPU from the outset. It will give a PASS/FAIL result. Some users report what you have seen with OCCT and then find the processor passes all other CPU tests including the IPDT. Conclusion: OCCT on occasion may produce spurious results that should be ignored.

I will do it later on, but how do you explain crashes then? I have read numerous threads with people having same problems, with same offset 0xc000000000236159

If you get a PASS result from the Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool it is unlikely that the CPU is at fault or the cause of the crashes. Game crashes can result from a number of causes - for example the game itself, graphics card drivers and the Windows OS.
