Overclocking failed

I have an nvidia geforce gtx 670 on an asus p9x79 mobo.
Until recently it was perfectly fine but after installing linux and then reinstalling windows (dunno if that caused anything but then was the first time i noticed) it's acting a bit weird.
Every once in a while when I turn it on before even booting windows i get an overclocking failed please look in to setup or sth error message.
It's not really a big deal for me since it works as soon as I start it up again but i thought I should still ask for advice. Maybe it's a bigger problem and I'm just going around it till it finally fucks my graphics card or sth.

The card also said something about Overclock version or so on the packaging does that mean it's overclocked from stock? Because i never did anything like that.

So is this a major error/anything I should do or can I just ignore it?

OC edition means you CAN overclock it but it usually doesnt come overclocked out of the box. i'd say as long as your temperatures are fine and it all works okay that you can safely ignore it.

That is an error generated from your mobo concerning CPU overclocking settings. If your cpu is overclocked, its not entirely stable, actually you should use cpuz(and prime95) and see if the overclock settings are actually being applied and not just bypassed after a restart on failed settings.
