Have you tried resetting the CMOS to bring the system back to its default settings?
Once you do that, try overclocking in small increments and then use OCCT for stability testing at each increment.

I'm not that familiar with that PC, but do you have the manual for it? If not, here's the XPS 720 H2C Owner's Manual.
Here's the XPS 720 motherboard:
I believe #20 is your Reset (CMOS) jumper. Remove the connector for about 30 seconds, then re-connect it and you should have then reset your CMOS to its default state.

Unfortunatly there is very limited options for overclocking on the 720. I am assuming you are overclocking by increasing the bin setting in the bios?
If so I would do like Rambler358 and run the OCCT program for each bin setting as you increase it.

If the thermal paste wasn't appllied correctly, it will cause the CPU to get too hot and cause BSODs. A very thin horizontal line across the CPU is all it needs.
See this Artic Silver Installation Guide for your CPU.
