Need Some Help!

Im having a little trouble getting this to run stable. The system crashes after about 15-20 minutes of gaming in BF2142. All the temps seem to be decent. Is there a hardware conflict or maybe just a bad video card?

specs:
Power Supply :600w Coolmax
Motherboard :Intel 975X Bad Axe = 40°C
Processor :Intel Core 2 Duo E6700 @ 2666 MHz = 41°C
RAM :2048 MB (2 x 1024 DDR2-SDRAM ) OCZ
Hard Disk :WDC (320 GB) = 34°C
Hard Disk :2x150 Raptor - SiImage (300 GB) 37°C
Video Card : EVGA 8800GTX = (62°C idle) - (77°C load)

All the BIOS and drivers are current.

I blame a crappy PSU...

Did you test your cpu using Prime95? Might want to do that and see if it's the CPU...

Also, what kind of memory you have... speed, latency, and whatnot... original and OC'ed setting...

Maybe the PSU or ram but that temp on the video card is high, it may be within spec but can still cause stability issues.
