Clear your CMOS and try one memory stick at a time (and in each DIMM slot as well).

You clear the CMOS by turning off your computer, unplugging the computer from the wall, and removing the CMOS battery on the motherboard for 30 seconds and than reinserting it. Some motherboards also have clear CMOS jumpers. The manual should have instructions on how to do this.

Once you've done this. Remove a stick of memory so you only have one installed. Turn on computer and see if it still happens. If it does, take the stick and move it to another slot. Repeat for the second stick of memory or until the problem is gone.

You don't have to donate anything but thanks anyways.

On my motherboard I only have 2 dim slots for the memory

I know I dont have to but I want to. : )

You being a great person, taking time out of your day to help some random idiot with his computer problems. You deserve it.

Ok, so just to followup with my problem from yesterday.

Checking the GPU tempurature, it seems to peak at 60 degrees C, which should be fine shouldn't it? Memtest is saying the memory is fine. It hasn't happened again and I was playing SC2 for about 5 hours or so earlier. Wondering if it was just a freak thing? Does that happen?

No I am completely confused, I reset the CMOS again and start'd the W7 DL again. At 99 % it reset it self...... I dont know what to do, Ive reset the memory and CMOS 3 times now.. ahhhhhh

@Brettatron

60c is fine. If it hasn't happened again than I wouldn't worry about it.

@FearTheReaperMan

Unplug the graphics card and try using on-board to see if you make any further progress. Your problem definitely sounds like hardware related though.

My Sapphire 4770 is quite audible at 100%, not to mention I have four 120mm and a single 140mm in my case(All running at 100%). At relative idle periods the card is around 40-44C and usually goes up to 55C+ underload, which seems fine considering its getting really humid and warm here. When it gets too warm for my comfort I usually just underclock it with Overdrive.

My case sits on top of my desk. During the summer, the high temperatures are really noticeable. I try not to reach 70C+ even though these cards can do well over that. I had a few times forgot to readjust my fan speeds when I notice my card was reaching 75C underload. D:

I never done any reliable stress tests honestly.

Hey guys I just thought I would tell you I ordered my computer today.
I got a higher watt psu, but it is still earthwatt, I figure it will help if I decide to upgrade anything, and it would freak me out using a 350 watt but other than that everything is pretty much identical to the build you made for me, thanks for the help, I'll post pictures once its put together.

A 560ti shouldn't be getting that high, mine never goes above 70c and its overvolted. Is your providing enough airflow?

Those temperatures are cautious - but not necessarily dangerous - levels. But only if it's a CPU. And only if it's on a laptop. And only if all of your cooling methods have been exhausted. And only if you want absolutely maximum life out of it.

Fortunately, it is a graphics card in a desktop, and you could easily add in fans to keep it cool, so you're golden XD

Go ahead and overclock that sucker, if you're getting such low temperatures

He didn't give ambient temperatures. For all we know, he could be playing in the middle of a sauna.

Either way, I think he's got an EVGA card which has the squirrel cage blower. Airflow isn't going to change anything, its going to be ambient temperature which is partly why all stock cards use this type of blower. Not everyone has access to windtunnels but they do have access to air conditioners.

Actually, airflow can affect the EVGA EE model temps a bit, although moreso in SLI. There's a few ways it can end up mattering. If your PSU fan is forced to face up for whatever reason, and if you have fans blowing in from the side, like with a Lanboy Air case. Side fans help a lot with SLI configurations since it's hard to get air moving in between dual slots otherwise.

Even so, Ambient is still much more important, yes.

Well yes, obviously if you've got dead spots in your case, your centrifugal fan is going to be sucking in hotter air than before.

If you're going to strap a billion fans on your case to cool a centrifugal fan, you might as well take the shroud off and ziptie 120mm fans onto it.

Nah, the Lanboy Air has other reasons for the zillion fans, too, I was just pointing out the bizarre exceptions to the rule.

I'm actually still astonished that the whole positive pressure=low dust thing actually works pretty well. Kinda nice having a semi-open case, works well for a hot air-cooled rig like mine. It's not so great for huge OC's, since it doesn't direct airflow for optimal cooling to any one part of your system, but it works well for mild OC's and Multi-GPU.

And of course, it's a cool gimmick case, if you're willing to drop $200 on a case that's only slightly above average for cooling performance.
