Windows Crashing.

Been running the system in my sig for about a month with no problem. im getting crashes. 2 of my 3 screens will go blank and it will restart. when it restarts theres no error message or anything? any ideas? i think it might be the memory.

Can't see your sig at the minute for some reason..

At a complete guess I'd say RAM or PSU... but because it isn't going off in games I'd lean slightly more towards PSU..

Tried memtest on your RAM?

The summer's come along. Maybe your nicely clocked components are over-heating, and the motherboard pre-sets are tripping?

Check your temps

my board does that sometimes when i change back to auto it sometimes remembers some of the previous settings like Command rate and things just reset the cmos to go back to defaults quickest way
