Well Im sure a 16M super pi run equals about 20 minutes of gaming, as far as the processor, RAM, motherboard and northbridge are concerned?
Temperatures are fine, monitored the card up until the system restarted and temps never rose above 65C for the video card. The processor runs a 25C under full load and won't budge any higher, havn't checked the northbridge temps, but I'm waiting for the new card to arrive tommorow to do that.
I will run memtest and if theres no errors and I'm STILL having the exact same problems in games I'm going to have to assume it's the PSU. I doubt the processor is the problem and I've updated my motherboard to the latest BIOS and all seems healthy on it.
I'll get back to you tommorow with the new 7900GT, any more suggestions? Is a floppy disk large enough to make a bootable for memtest? And can I make the bootable floppy on one pc and use it on a different one?
For PSU issues, are there any giveaways? Like checking the rails (I need to know which software etc) The PSU supports 2x pcie-e, I know it shouldnt matter, but out of good practise should I use the first connector in the chain or the second? I was using the second last time.
For motherboard issues, is there a program I can log the northbridges temperatures to a .txt file and constantly logs and saves? This is what I used to monitor the video card temps.
Thanks for the help so far.
