i was tinkering around on my computer yesterday with some overclocking. i got to 3.89 ghz 3d mark ran no problem. but then it would blue screen every so oftin. (after 5 hours of being up) so i put it down abit. 3.6 ghz witch i had stable for days on end no blue screen. ran for about 4 hours then blue screen. so i said the hell with it ill go back to stock. 4 hours later blue screen. now everything is set to stock on my pc. but i keep getting blue screens every now and again. any ideas. im leaning towards cmos battery but i wanted to check to see if anyone else had another idea. or is it just the heat. my apt is 80-90F on a daily basis |

If you're at stock I doubt it's the CPU overheating (but your ambient temps are really high... ![]() |

with the humidity and annoying heat temps, i agree stick a house fan blowing on it |

i am in the same boat rone my apt is at a steady 84f and sometimes gets to 87 i have been playing with my fans, and have come to the conclusion with the high ambient temps, its best to have a postive air pressure through your case, (more air going in then going out) i have it switched to negative (more exhaust than intake) and notice a 4c -5c jump in all the temps across the board. Anyways, i hope you get your problem solved. have you tried running mem test or anything else to diagnose the problem? |

Check your CPU's temp with Coretemp or Realtemp...If all is in check, maybe run Memtest to make sure your RAM is fine...and try reseting the CMOS. |

too hot in on some days in the summer to archive desired bench marks. |

Yeah, I'm guessing that it's related more to passively cooled motherboard components like VRMs or SB/NB than it is to mem or CPU. Just a fact of life for us folks who don't use AC all summer long. ![]() |

yeah its a reality i have accepted. LOL alto them yate loon fans did help bring down ambient temp in the case. im getting 12 more of those fans for my new rig. BEST FANS I EVER USED. the 1350 rpm fans for a low rpm move A LOT of air ps i never did get a ac unit |

I once had 3 AC power fans in an old case way back when. They were LOUD (50db each). I also shorted to the case a few times and nothing blew up that was pretty funny. |

hahaha that's pretty cool. i once ran a water cooling rad into a mini fridge. then back out to the processor. worked really well, but moving the computer was a task in its self. i had holes drilled in the top of the mini fridge. so taking out the raid involved draining the system. |
