My newly built PC keeps crashing with this screen:
I cannot figure out what the problem is as I do not have any compatible parts to swap and test.
The crashing occurs randomly. Sometimes 10 seconds within Windows booting, sometimes hours. However, as soon as I load a game in Crysis the system crashes within 15 seconds. I already have RMA'd the motherboard for another of the same model and still have the same problem. Also, using the onboard video instead does not resolve the problem.
I have run countless stress/torture tests and benchmarks and all the results are ~normal, aside from the slightly-lower-than-expected scores on the benchmarks (in no particular area).
Specs:
ECS A780GM-A AMD780G Socket AM2+ Motherboard
AMD Phenom Quad 9500+ 2.2Ghz Socket AM2+ CPU
G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500)
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 3870 512MB 256-bit GDDR4 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Video Card
OCZ StealthXStream OCZ500SXS ATX12V / EPS12V 500W Power Supply
What is the next step I should take it fixing this system?
