Forum CPU & Components : PC Gaming Crysis crashing and restarting pc

My pc can run crysis until the end of beg vid then my pc dies and restarts itself >=(... And i have nooooo idea why? Im running the base Q7 in a asus x58 mobo with 12 gigs ddr3 ram and a evga gtx 285 2GB ram gpu... i have 750 watts of power and a plenty fast hard drive... i also know that runnning a 64-bit windows 7 may not be the best for running a slightly older 32-bit game like crysis... i also have all the necessary and up to date drivers and patches as well... after that i have no idea what could be wrong so please help

My guess is ram speed/voltage settings.

What are temps ?

Are you OC'd ?

What does Event Viewer say ?

Are you BSOD'ing ?

What 750W PSU do you have? Not all power supplies are created equal. To check for a video issue try running furmark, check your CPU running prime95. Test for a power issue by running both simultaneously as it will put your system under max load.

PSU is a silverstone 750 watt ATX 12V 2.2 & EPS 12V SLI Ready Modular Active PFC Power Supply... Ram is Patriot Viper 12GB (6 x 2GB) DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666)... I do not screw around with timing and votages and junk all "stock"... my temps are a nice warm but not hot 45*C for cpu, ram and mobo.... Event viewer??? please explain... how do i run furmark and prime 95? WOW thanks for the intrest guys haha

you have 4 seperate rails on that PS. Try seperating loads and balance them on the 4 rails.
