I'm having a few probs w/ my machine...i'm not sure it's stable. I ran Orthos last night for 12 hrs, no errors whatsoever. The machine is an e8400 OCed to 4.0ghz, temps seem like they might be a bit high. I was using SmartGuardian to test the temps. Idle is around 55c, load is around 80c (!!!). Mind you, ambient in this room is kinda hot right now, don't have an AC yet and its like 85 degrees out. Chip is cooled w/ a TRUE120 and AS5...shouldn't my temps be a bit better?
The problems I'm having are:
1. Sometimes I'll restart my machine from Windows (Vista Ultimate x64), and it will just turn off instead.
2. Sometimes I'll restart and it just won't POST after restarting.
3. Sometimes my sound will "Freeze," and just stutter forever...seems to happen mostly when Winamp is open tho...might be a winamp issue?
PS: Forgot to mention...the TRUE seems a bit "loose." The screws are tightened all the way, but it still sorta just floats on the CPU...is this normal?
