Pc Specs:
Amd Phenom II X4 840
ATI HD 6850
600 Watts PSU
A giant fan on the side of my pc.
A smaller fan on the back of the pc
Alright, so here's the deal:
When gaming (gaming only) my computer automatically turns off after a while.
I believe it's because my videocard overheats since it's the most warm thing in my computer. But it's strange. My computer turns off when the videocard reaches 70-75 degrees Celsius. It isn't that hot, right?
Also, I've installed an extra fan, but it doesn't help anything, not even when putting my fan speeds at 100%.
(Large fan around the 3000Rpm, small fan 1600Rpm)
Then again, I'm not 100% sure it's overheating but it's seems the most logical explanation to me. (Happens with all games, Crysis 2, Skyrim, even CS:S).
I also tried updating my drivers, and putting in an additional fan, but they only extend how long my pc can go without overheating, the problem is still there.
Please help
