i recently built an i5-2500k w/c i havent overclocked yet the thing is whenever i play games w/ it like bullet storm star craft etc it freezes/crashes after 10-20 mins..im using a radeon 6850 and a 775 watts bronze psu..ran a test on my ram and its all good,updated all the drivers..so what could it be?..bad gpu?..or psu ? or should i increase the voltage on something? pls help..pretty much it just crashes when i play games
