Hi guys,

I'm having trouble with my computer shutting down when I'm playing games.
It completely dies (as if someone pulled the cord) and then I can smells just a little tad of something burned (i want to say it smells like when you solder).

I've tried detecting what the problem could be by running Furmark for 25 minutes (GPU gets to 70C, with fan at 46% - I ran it for 30 minutes). I've also tried hardsetting the GPUfan to 60% but still - it crashes.

Running Prime95 puts my cores on 55%. Though, when running HWMonitor I have someting called "CPUTIN" that's at 105C.

Do you guys have any idea on what more I can test, to detect what the problem might be?

This is my hardware:

Hm. Can I somehow test to see if this is the issue? F.ex. push cpu and gpu to the limit at the same time?
Also, if this is the issue - can i "solve" it by downclocking some stuff and maybe plug out dvd-rom etc?

Thanks in advance.
