Are you up to date on Service Packs?

Have you checked the temps on the 3800+ and 7900 temps? (when playing the games)

Are you OC the system?

are you using the newest drivers for all components, or the ones that came on the installation cds?

Check the voltages on your PSU in the BIOS. See if anything (especially 12v rail) is fluctuating more than a tiny bit (+/- 5% is the most it should change).

Drivers that come on motherboard CDs are usually outdated by at least 3 months. Get all drivers from the web to ensure you have the latest available.

Actually, you should always check first to make sure the latest release is stable. Sometimes it's not.
