Heaven Help!

Heaven is crashing when benchmarking. My g/cards are stock and not overclocked. I've underclocked my CPU down to 4.0ghz.

What would cause this?

What is the age and model of your PSU?

It's a OCZ 1000w Modular PSU, but is re-branded for the seller. About 12 months old. Bought it back in March last year.

So I've gone through the ThermalTake PSU Calculator & added everything to the list.

Overclock,Vcore, SLI setup, SSD, HDD, ODD, Fans, USB Devices & Cap aging. Aparently the recommended wattage is 620. I've contacted the seller as it's still covered under warrenty to see if I can get a replacement. It doesn't crash just playing BF3, only when benching, so I've stopped benching.

Should I really have this issue 12-13 months into using it?

sorry to hear the bad new news snips, hope you get it sorted / fixed, pain in the bum when something don't work right

board does have some heat issues with early versions, so unless it's not one of them etc, plus what bios version are you using?
