So guys I finally bought my new computer installed windows 7 64 bit, everything's running great so far (so it seems)
I used speccy and a few other programs to check my temperatures and noticed that they were quite high
speccy was giving me 60 degrees celsius and then it dropped down to 42.
While easy tune was giving me a temperature in 20-23 celsisus range
Heres the problem
I tried to play Medieval 2 Total War, it loaded up fine nice and fast I started a quick game and
a few seconds after being in game my monitor went black and lost signal! What could be wrong?
i'm pretty sure I installed my APU correctly along with it's heatsink maybe i didn't install it correctly?
Other notes:
I haven't messed with anything in BIOS, I simply installed all hardware put in my windows 7 CD installed it and then installed the drivers that came along with my motherboard.
