Having a few issues with my system locking up after a few minutes of gaming. Specs are:
Intel Q9650 3Ghz (underclocked to 2.8 to see if it helped)
Coolermaster 100W PSU
Asus P5N-T Deluxe mobo
GeForce 8800 Ultra
Tried a couple of different pairs of memory sticks, OCZ 8500 in at the moment.
Tuniq Tower cooler
I've run a couple of passes of Memtest with no issues so I don't think it's memory. Temps are 40 idle 52 load on the CPU and 60 idle 80 load on the GPU so I don't think it's an issue, although having said that, things seem a lot more stable with the case side off, so it does sound like a cooling issue somewhere, motherboard chipset? Asus probe is reporting 35 idle, 40 load degrees at the moment.
Case has 4 fans, currently, 1 entry 3 exit.
Any ideas, comments would be appreciated, this is driving me insane!
