Hey everyone,
So I wasnt getting the temps I was hoping for with the OC in my sig. So I decided today to lap the CPU and HSF and spent a good 3-4 hours doing so. Everything turned out as expected as far as the lapping process goes. After I setup the system again, everything posts just fine except that a few minutes after I get into windows at random intervals, the system shuts down and reboots itself. Now normally this would mean heat issues however after a couple times of this occurring I set my BIOS to defaults (stock clock/vcore) and watched the temps closely in the BIOS as well as in Core Temp (when I was able to login to windows) and the temps are around ~31C. So now I'm stuck, what could possibly be causing these symptoms if temps aren't an issue?
Thanks!
Alec
