I think the second blimp is the CPU test. Maybe you ought to double check your CPU stability. Run loops of 3DM01 to confirm.

What are your temps during 3D benching? I suspect that your VC is dumping heat into the case during the 3D tests. Although your CPU can pass SP32M, it is on an edge. The extra heat from the GPU maybe the problem. Try rethinking your air-flow configuration.

Whats your videocard clocked at? And whats your ram running at in terms of mhz? If it just "freezes" its the VC or the ram .. or at least I think ^^.

51C on the VC or CPU? And what error message do you get?

What does rivertuner say about your Video card temps? Maybe its going over 72C. That could be your problem.

I don't think that 32mb PI translates into '05 or '03 CPU test stability. If you want a better OC then try some better cooling. Then you can add more vcore if you want.
Also you can skip the CPU test(s) and still get a full submittable score. Just hit escape after the ugly assed blimp test and you're good
