Have you run a stress test for your CPU. prime95 is a good one. Run that for a couple hours.

OK. Thank you for the quick response. I went ahead and did a stress test on Prime95 with blend on.

So far workers #1-6 and 8 are still going but worker #7 worker stopped.
It said over and over again:

Possible hardware failure, consult readme.txt file, restarting test.
ERROR: ILLEGAL SUMOUT
Maximum number of warnings exceeded
Torture Test completed 19 tests in 34 minutes - 0 errors, 100 warnings.
Worker stopped.

My CPU is at 1.332 V
Multiplier x 21.0

Sounds like you determined issue....CPU. I'd search for guides about how to overclock the 8150. You'll find that some guides are better than others. Try more than one'm

Also check temperature of your CPU using Hardware Monitor or Real Temp GT. I use a second monitor to watch my temps and fan speeds when I'm gaming.

Read that.. see if it helps.

It was crashing before I had over clocked my 8150 but I will go ahead and check out the guide once i get out of work.
Temperature was steady at 61* C as i left prime95 running overnight and with my h80 on high performance with fans running at 2300 RPM.

A 8150 should hit at least 4.7GHz. You need to push that bitch more. Temps seem fine. I'm kinda confused why you are having crashes.
