I have a computer running a Foxconn Am2 motherboard, Amd Phenom 8200 2.10 GHz triple core processor, 2gb of RAM, and an Nvidia 7600GT Video card. I am running two 20" LCDs on the Video Card. When I play older games like World of Warcraft or EQ 2 the system will run just fine but when I try to play newer games such as Lord of the Rings Online or some shooters after a little while the system will shut down. It also does this sometimes when I'm running Netflix on one monitor and surfing on the other I have ran temperature testing programs and the chip stays between 40-45 C and the Video card around 70 C. I only have a Rosewill 500 watt PSU which I beleive to be the problem but am not sure. There is no performance drop in the game before shut down it just powers off.
