Idk why but my pc shuts down while gaming.i bought the rig for Watching movies and stuff but ended up gaming on it a little.
SPECS:
CPU:Intel cor2duo 2.66Ghz
GFX:GT610 Leadtek
RAM:2GBs ddr3
PSU:Stock PSU 240W
Case:Stock Case

The pc would shut down after 10mins of gaming.Some peeps told me that it was the PSU.it wasnt desgined to handle noth a CPU and a GPU.my CPU was overclocked to 3.4Ghz which i then "down"clocked? To the stock settings.if the PSu was the issue then if i would plug out the keyboard and mouse cords and the gpu would fix the issue..but no success.the damned CPU started giving me those red Bleep errors.it was 6 red bleeps which ment that the ram was an issue.took out the rams(4x 512mbs) and left it with a 512mb stick... no success.the pc wont turn on.i cleaned the pc with a vaccume cleaner in case the dust built up was disturbing the air flow.still no success.
BTW
my pc would show high temps of about 60 to 70° while doing nothing and would rise up to 103°C when gaming.

Pls advice.
