Over the last 2 weeks out of nowhere my PC kept shutting down when i was playing games. It started with the same game i have played for years. I tried another game and same thing, always about 2 mins into the game. I needed a format so i thought i would do it. Same thing after a fresh install of windows, I updated my Video cards drivers radeon X800 XT. Now instead of shutting down, the PC beeps constantly while playing the games, and stops as soon as i finish.

Is the graphics card to blame?

I have tried speedfan, the Temp holds at about 39/40c, while it beeps

Thanks in advance

Are you kidding? Just try each area until you find them (hint: a computer sensor might actually sense computer stuff).
 
nope not kidding thats why i asked, sorry not a PC expert.
I looked at it and was swamped with all the info. sorry
 
Under Sensor it shows GPU Temps..

Temperatures:
GPU 64 °C (147 °F)
GPU Ambient 51 °C (124 °F)


is that right?
 
Why just report on one thing - use the report feature (learn about it) and report ALL the temps and voltages.
 
CCT its because that is the only thing i found about Temps,
If you dont want to help, just say so, but i would appreciate just telling me where the actual data i need is.

I see where you report everything, but i didn't see temps in there.

Thanks
