The reason it turns off is because of the motherboard setting to automatically do it after a certain temperature. In fact, I would rather have that in place than to turn it off. Not to mention that this CPU overclocked runs cooler than my older CPU setup, even 5+C lower in idle.
In the end, that's why for my first attempt at it, I have a sub-$100 cpu that is known to overclock easily instead of a much more expensive one which may overclock well, but costs two or three times as much.
