my configuration is : Athlon 64 x2 3800+,MSI K9NU Neo-V,Twinmos 2x512 MB RAM,Ati X1900XT by Gigabyte,1 x HDD 200 WD,1x HDD 160WD,Enermax noisetaker2 600W,Akasa Ak-922 Cooler.
i have a big problem and i dont know how to resolve it.when i play a game( or use my video card at full load) after 10-15 minutes the video card just shuts down.the rest of the pc is working,except my video card,and the pc stops and the only thing that i can do is to restart it.at first i thought it was from the video card,so i gave it back to the store were bought her,they tested and had no problem.the video card work perfectly.So i tested the pc with a 6600gt and had no problems.
now i think the problem could be a moterboards incompatibility with the video card.what can i do ?please help!!!
ill update the motherboards bios and use the latest Nvidia Uli drivers and the Ati drivers,but i cand right now because i havent received iet the video card from the waranty.And also i though that i sould try a memory test with MemTest86 to see if there are any problems with the RAM.
Do you have any ideeas that can solve this problem???

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You could try modded drivers from omegadrivers.net. That solved a few problems from ATI's drivers for me, like performance drops. I like them a lot better.

Are you sure heat isn't a factor? Try setting the fan to max (yes it's loud but see if it helps)

Is there enough room between your vid card and the next card below it? I'd leave at least a slot or two open because that fan needs a lot of air.

it's not the fan
the video card tempereture is around 86 C in full load.
and the CPU's is 43 C full load.
