Hi guys,

So i have this issue, when i play a game my pc shuts down after 5/10 mins, i have checked the temperatures for the gpu and cpu and they seem allright, also cleaned the PC from dust with condensed air, all drivers are up to date etc

Temperatures :

Idle -

Core #1 - 37°c
Core #2 - 36°c
Core #3 - 33°c
Core #4 - 34°c

Under Load -

Core #1 - 54°c
Core #2 - 49°c
Core #3 - 47°c
Core #4 - 50°c

The gpu temperatures :

Idle -

45°c

Under Load -

66°c At max.

Pc Specs Are -

Psu- Corsair 700W GS700
CPU - Intel Core 2 Extreme qx6700 ( Currently 3,2 ghz )
Gpu - Msi 580 GTX Twin Frozr
Ram - Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR3 (2x4gb)

I can do a stress test for both the cpu and the gpu and the pc stays on no matter for how long i have stressed them, but as soon as i play a game the pc shuts down without any warnings etc .

Also i have the cpu overclocked from a stock 2,66ghz to 3,20ghz but no matter if i put it back to stock it still turns off while playing games.

I've had a simmalair problem,i had to re apply the fans because this could be caused by the fabb running too fast.Or it could be a virus on your computer.Ive got almost the same build.This could be for multiple things but id say its fan speed problem or your power supply went bad.If your power supply did go bad youd have to by a new one.

Is This happening on one game only? or is it on all pc games you play?

Its on all games i play. What do you mean by reapplying the fans? take them off and put them back on ? if yes on what components ? All the fans are cleaned properly out of dust etc. And if it matters the cpu heatsink fan is running 2100 rpm all the time, i have smart fan controll off in bios, also thanks for the fast reply! :)
