My 12 yr old son built his own computer for gaming. He put in a Gtx650TI graphic card. Everything works good except it hangs up after approx. 15 min while gaming. He reboots and it repeats after about 15 mi. Any suggestions as to what he can check.
 
Solution
That PSu could be the problem. It is not good. I would replace it with a Corsair, antec, Seasonic, XFX 500w unit. The temps will also be good to know for the GPU UNDER LOAD.
