Therefore, unless the temp monitoring utility is inaccurate, it shutdown due to other reasons. What type graphics card are you running and does IT have sufficient cooling? If it IS CPU overheating, there are many supercooling heatsink/fan assemblies available. The only problen I could forsee would be finding a power source for the new assembly. I know the MB has points on it for fans but, alas, no sockets are installed there. Perhaps one of the HD/CD power cables could be tapped.

Hi,
It would appear by the Intel specs, that the max temp (auto shutdown) is 74 deg C.
