Ok after I got a new graphics card games would cause my computer to shut down after 10-15 min and restart so really just troubleshooting I unplugged everything from my mobo and plugged them back in. Well after that id go to play a game and the loading times were insane. Its not my cpu or gpu overheating I checked and my psu should be enough from what ive read. So then I installed metro 2033 and it runs fine on max settings and the load times are fine. So im wondering if its caused by the games I had on my computer before I unhooked everything??? Any help would be greatly appreciated

this sounds like a thermal issue. check cpu and gpu temps under idle and under load. gpu z and core temp or leal temp should do just fine. also when under heavy load check your psu if overheating or making any weird noises. also make sure your tower has proper ventilation!

Try installing the older drivers, nvidia just released some new ones yesterday I think. Try using the 332.21

Nvidia has been having some driver problems in planetside where a lot of players would play for 20min, then the game would crash. I had a AMD card and I had problems with it because my monitor would go to sleep.

yes, there is a chance but you have to find out for your self! try compressed air to clean it fro the dust! also if overheating you would experience higher fan speed and probably higher noise levels than usual!
