I have just upgarded my kit to:
Abit ip35 Pro
Q6600
8800 gts (640)
2 g pc2 8500
More importantly (I guess) I have made the move to Vista 64, which is new ground for me, so please forgive any dumb questions I may be asking..
Anyway - built pc using my 2xraptors (64 stripe) Raid_0 - they seem to be much more noisy now, but thats a different story.
Problem I have is that I can use Vista and play games. I have a few minor issues, but mainly fine. I can run 3dmark05 and get a decent(ish) score. Can't seem to install 06, but again, another story.
But when I try to stress test - I get a lock up fairly quickly. Using Orthos - a few minutes and it goes, yet cpu temp is still no higher than 60-65. Bios doesn't shut down until 75.....
I have to button the box. I have done no overclocking at all. I was stress testing to see stability before I even thought about that.
Any ideas what could be casuing this?
Many thanks
EDIT - PS, got all my kit from SCAN after reading some things here Not sure that is at all relevant, but well...
