this has happened to me twice in 3 months since i put together my computer, i would be playing a game or doing basic word processing or even browsing the internet, and the PC would shut off suddenly and i would hear a loud springy ping noise. i was told that this was caused by the cpu overheating. anyone know what the problem could be?
