[quote="[MOD]Gen.WikiWeaponn":18395]One big problem I had for a looong time with my pc crashing during games wa not my power suplly (even though i had the same symptoms) but actually heat issues. If your processor gets to hot, you motherboard shuts it down in order to save the processor.

Ambient temperature (the temp of the room) has the biggest effect on the comps temp, but you may want to look into getting a better heatsing (with copper base) for your cpu, some case/exaust fans, and some Arctic Silver thermal grease to go along with your cpu fan and heatsink[/quote:18395]
yeah, if this happens it could meen you have had your computer on to long, or just lack of power one of those(also heat)
