Hi BlackJack,
the first thing I would look at is check heatsinks (CPU & GFX)

Games = stress = heat


Perhaps try motherboardmonitor (or your favourite H/W monitor)

If your are using 1.3 patch on BF2 it is known to cause game crashes. Problem is most servers use the 1.3 patch...

It not just bf 2 it is a lot of other games too.I think it is a overheating problem so i be told i will need to take it for a check up

Usual thing people say is to take the side off and aim a desktop fan inside - if that makes any difference, sort some cooling out
Prometia/VapoChill? :9:
