I just built a new computer; AthlonXP 2500+, DFI Inifinity, 512MB DDR400, GF4 Ti4200 AGP 8X.
It plays games fine, but sometimes, it just restarts. I think it might be because of high temperatures, maybe? After the restarts, I check in BIOS and the CPU temp is usually around 52-54C. That's too high right?
It's stock speed, stock cooling, stock everything.
I can understand if it's the temps because the HSF had to be removed a few times and placed back on, which caused some of the stock thermal grease to smear and become blotchy.
Could high temps be the problem though? I don't get any errors, it just restarts.
