    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?

    Sounds more like a over heating problem.

    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.

    Have you overclocked anything? If so, reset the BIOS to its defaults.

    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.

    Set the DRAM voltage to 1.6v.

    Timings should be 9-9-9-27.

    I think I might be inclined to actually test those settings with a good stablity program like Prime 95. Guessing at settings can be fun but hardly ever results in a stable system.
