Hello, i just built my brother a gaming rig worth 4000$...Storm trooper tower MSI z87-G45 Mobo, Kingston Ram 8 gig sticksx2, i7 4770k processor, 3 TB HDD, 250gig samsung SSD (two of them),, ASUS GTX 780iT, 1000w Cooler master Power supply, Zalman Resorator 3 Liquid cooling, Windows 8.1. I need help bad... this is only my second build. (i build my own with no issues 4 days ago). I built the system, then installed windows onto SSD drive. I launch a game, 20 minutes later the system cashes every time. heat is not an issue as i already installed a few different temp monitors. Is there any MOBO setting i am missing in order for things to work correctly? any help is much appreciated .
