Ok, I recently got a new pc, and I'm enjoying it tons.
Quad core, 2.4ghz per core. nVidia 8500gt, 3 GB ram.
This happened three weeks ago.
I was playing garry's mod, and then fan got very loud, then the computer shut off.
I suspected this was overheating, and blamed on the intense particles I was rendering at the time. To my surprise, it did this all day the next day no matter what I did, browse the web, chat, even idle.
Then it just sort of stopped.
Now it's starting to do it again, and it's quite a fucking pain.
Any solutions?
Also, IS this actually overheating?
