I just noticed a whea warning in my event log stating a hardware error was corrected and it was reported by a cpu core. the error type was a cache hierarchy error. i know OCing can cause some of these whea errors, and it seems most people just ignore them, but im just wondering if this one is anything to worry about. my processor is overclocked, but i can pass numerous stress tests for hours, including cache stress tests and memory tests without any issues or errors in the even log. i think the pc my have even been idle at the time this was reported, or i was gaming. but again usually there are no errors regardless of what the pc is doing.

anyway, i was just wondering if anyone had some info on this error since googling it comes up with a bunch of different whea errors and no real explanation other than ocing can cause them.

Ignore it, you're fine. You already took the necessary precautions with the stress tests etc.
