I've got a newly built system with the following:
XFX 680i mobo
Intel QX6850 cpu at stock settings
4x1Gb PC2-6400 RAM
EVGA GeForce 8800 GTS video card
PC Power 1200w psu
2 WD Raptor 150Gb h.d.
1 Seagate Barracuda 1Tb h.d.
Razer Barracuda AC-1 sound card
Razer DeathAdder mouse
All drivers are current as is the bios on the mobo. The system works great
but while gaming it will reboot. Sometimes it reboots within 5 minutes of
play, sometimes it takes an hour. The system is watercooled (but no OC'd
yet) so the temps stay low (CPU always below 50ºC, video always below 55ºC).
There is no rhyme or reason as to why it reboots, no BSOD, the screen just
goes black & it reboots. I've tried a Creative soundcard, mobo sound, no
difference. I've swapped the video for dual Ultras SLI with newest drivers
and still does it. I upgraded the psu from a 750w unit thinking it couldn't
handle the Ultra SLI setup and it had no impact.
Any ideas?
