Setting BIOS correctly as crashes with CPU load Components are...
MB: GB P55A-UD4P
CPU: i5-750
RAM: Kingston DDR3-2000 4GB
GPU: GB GTX260 OC
PSU: Enermax Infiniti 650w
I currently can run my Windows 7 system ok, but when I get up around 75% CPU, it crashes and turns off. I am guessing I need to configure the BIOS? Possibly make the CPU faster to keep up with the RAM???
When I enable XMP, it sets the CPU to 2.8ghz.
Any ideas? | My System Specs |

No, it turns off, soon after I have logged in. I go straight into the BIOS and it says the CPU is 47 deg-c. 116 farenheight. | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Professional x64 CPU Intel i7-2600K Motherboard ASUS P8Z68-V Pro Memory Kingston PC3-16000 DDR3-2000 Graphics Card 2x Gigabyte HD6970 Monitor(s) Displays 3x BenQ E2420HD Keyboard Logitech G110 Mouse Logitech VX Nano PSU Corsair AX850 Case Corsair Obsidian 650D Cooling Corsair H80, 2x 200mm Fans Hard Drives Main: 2x 1Tb RAID-0

I have reduced RAM timings from 999 to 777 and increased CPU to 3.15Ghz and reduced RAM speed to 1500. No faults yet for the last 24 hours. But I wouldn't mind getting the RAM up to scratch  I guess I just have to play around with it. | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Professional x64 CPU Intel i7-2600K Motherboard ASUS P8Z68-V Pro Memory Kingston PC3-16000 DDR3-2000 Graphics Card 2x Gigabyte HD6970 Monitor(s) Displays 3x BenQ E2420HD Keyboard Logitech G110 Mouse Logitech VX Nano PSU Corsair AX850 Case Corsair Obsidian 650D Cooling Corsair H80, 2x 200mm Fans Hard Drives Main: 2x 1Tb RAID-0
