Yeah, we spied on you. You're welcome.

Thanks! It's funny you should mention that as it was purchased at the corner liquor store at the last minute for an impromptu margarita party. No undergrads though...

Slightly tipsy and can't sleep I feel like I have two modes, sleep is for the weak and sleep for a week. I'm never in the one that I want to be in

After playing for about 30 minutes I'm showing my max CPU temp at 79.4C with the average at 70.5C and Vcore is showing a max of 1.376V with an average of 1.298V I forgot to mention that I update the BIOS yesterday when I cleaned out my computer and reapplied thermal paste. Also, the cooler isn't stock, it's some liquid cooling system ibuypower was giving away when I ordered my machine. That temp was with the side off but I don't have a fan to see if that makes more of a difference than the ~5 degrees I'm already seeing

So, I'm still running pretty hot and I managed to hit 84 degrees but my average seems a couple of degrees lower and I'm idling much lower. It does appear that clock speeds are dropping when it starts to get into the high 70s and I haven't had it turn off on me yet I'm starting to look around for a better cooling solution

Seems to be running cooler now but I haven't had a chance to put it through the paces yet I took the downtime to go ahead and install Windows 8.1 for some unknown reason Should have everything loaded back on it tomorrow and will test it more thoroughly Thanks again for all the help
-
I think that's pretty accurate
-
Thanks for that Humanoid I had been using AIDA64 but I just ran HWinfo64 and got pretty much the same readings while playing Rift my CPU is getting up over 80 degrees and I'm not seeing the clock speeds drop any I plan on doing as the others have said and disassembling/cleaning/adding new thermal paste/reassembling my machine tonight and will let you know if there is any change afterwards Thanks again
-
I did and my CPU is running hot but with my lack of expertise in this area I don't know if that is my only problem or if there could be other things I should also look into but thank you all for your suggestions

Pretty much as the title says. It usually happens during gaming but I think there may have been a couple times when it cut off and I wasn't gaming. Also, no blue screen and no error messages or anything. Just on one minute and off the next. I think it may be overheating but I wanted to see if any of you guys had any other thoughts of likely culprits because hardware isn't my thing AMD FX-8150 Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 16GB DDR3-1600 2 AMD Radeon HD 7770 850 Watt Corsair CMPSU-850TXV2 2 120GB SSD 2TB HD I dunno if there is any other info you may want. I bought it from ibuypower a little less than a year and a half ago
