My computer has been running fine for a few months now and still runs fine during everyday tasks. But just recently it has been rebooting with no bsod during games, but not all games. Sometimes it reboots 2 minutes into the games other times it can be an hour before it reboots. I have checked for heat and the temps seem fine both cpu and gpu don't go over 60c. I have checked event viewer after each time it has rebooted and there are stop errors like IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL and PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA.

My system specs are.
Cpu = Phenom II x4 955
Gpu = radeon hd 6870
Hdd = seagate 750 gb
Ram = 2 x 4 gb ddr3 pc3-10600
Mobo = gigabyte ga -78lmt-s2p
Psu = EVO labs 750 watt 80+ bronze

Could be a driver issue, which you might have recently installed.
Or RAM issue. Run memtest86+ to make sure they're functioning properly.

Hardware wise your configuration is alright so no incompatibilities there. It could be due to failing PSU as well but this is most unlikely seeing the errors you're having in event viewer.
