Computer crashing since hardware updates.

[Jonnyb]

Hi guys,

Since I got my new mobo and new ram, every time I play on a game such as FSX the computer crashes after about 10-15 minutes. I have tried using 1 ram stick but this just made the crashing quiker. I personally reckon it might be becuase of the crappy 450w psu but I need you're advice.

Specs:
Mobo - Asus P5Q SE2 Intel P45 (Socket 775) DDR2 Motherboard
GPU - Nvidia GTX 260
RAM - 2 x 2gb OCZ DDR2
CPU - Core 2 Quad Q6600 (had it at 3ghz then found crashing problem. Now on default 2.4ghz but problem still persists)
PSU - 450w

Thanks,
Jonny

If its not a branded psu then that could well be the problem, might be worth investing in a corsair or something similar, do you know the make of that one you have atm?

I've had a look at it and I cant tell what brand it is so it's unlikely that it's unbranded.
