My problem started to arise about 3 weeks ago where I started to notice that various games would crash without reason(Hard crashing during loading, graphical crashes in D2, ect), at first I believed this was due to the GPU, but after fairly extensive investigation I believe it is due to a CPU bottleneck. My specs are below and it is to my knowledge that if my machine was running fine there would be no problem. That being said, the only tangible "proof" i have that something is wrong besides symptoms, is that my CPU is failing the "Prime Number and Math" tests using the intel diagnostic tool. Let it be known that I have painstakingly tested my ram, and updates virtually everything from my Bios, to my Audio Drivers to see if it was a software problem and it does not seem to be. On a side note, My CPU seems to be benching relatively fine using CPU-Z,
I would just like any insight as to what might be causing my problems and possibly how to fix it, and are my suspicions correct that perhaps I have a faulty CPU hardware wise
