Shut down due to overheating problem
Last response: in Motherboards
Hello,
I have an AMD Athlon 64-X2 4400+ processor on Gigabyte GA-M61SME S2 with 3Gb kingston rams and ATI radeon HD 2600 XT. After I play any game for some extended period CPU heat reaches 100C degrees and computer just powers off. It never happens outside games. I tried to change the heat-sink, the termal paste and even the power supply. I tested my CPu on another computer and ran World of Warcraft, which my friend's computer cannot run with full graphics and his computer worked just fine (in fact my friend changed his cpu to match mine to get improved performance and he has no problems. I'm highly suspicious of mother board and/or my graphics card. How can I find out where my problem is and is there any alternative component that can cause the problem?
Thanks for your answers in advance
