Hi all, first time posting. Full disclosure, first time building a rig, and I'm only recently learning about computers. I bought a budget build based off of an article that was put out here just a couple weeks ago and I've finally gotten around to building and starting up my new rig.

Specs:
Win 8 64 bit
AMD FX-6300 Six Core Processor Socket AM3+ 3.5GHZ 14MB 95W
Gigabyte AMD R9 270 OC 975MHZ 2GB 5.6GHZ GDDR5
ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0 ATX AM3+ 970/SB950 DDR3 2PCI-E16 2PCI-E1 2PCI SATA3 USB3.0
Kingston HyperX Fury Memory Black 8GB 2X4GB DDR3-1600 CL10 Dual Channel
EVGA SuperNOVA 650 G1 80PLUS Gold Power
Acer S24HL monitor

I know a lot of that is fluff but I wanted to be specific. The 2 major issues that I'm having at the moment are with Skyrim and Wow. When I play Skyrim I'm stuck with a secondary mouse pointer I cannot get rid of. Everything I have read says that odds are this is do to overclocking, which I haven't done. As well my WoW keeps freezing up after about an hour or so of play, to which the only way to get it going again if a force close and re-launch. I feel it could also be an overheating issue, but I don't overclock and I do nothing to demanding. Any help would be appreciated, and if you need/want more info just let me know.
