Ok,

I am running the following computer, the problem i am encountering is this and this is new to me. The system will totally lose all power as if the plug was yanked out of it whenever the system is on for a few mins and is working. It doesnt really ever to see to do it when its idle. Mostly when its downloading something or in middle of gameplay. I am thinking that it is a defective powersupply. Now here is the list of system specs and these are all brand new an installed a few days ago.

AMD Fx 55
Gigabyte SLI MB
2 Nviidia 7800 GTX
WD 7200 SATA HD
3 gigs corsair ram
thermaltake 680w powersupply
DVD burner.

What do you guys think it could be. THanks for the help
 
I think your hunch on a bad psu is where I am leaning. I would see if you swap it with another one.
 
yeah i figured as much but wanted to see if anything else might be the problem, im gonna try a new psu and see if that helps
