I own a watercooled PC running the Thermaltake Bigwater 760is watercooling system. Currently, I only have the CPU being cooled by this setup.
My build is at least 2 1/2 years old, running a Phenom 9950 and an Asus M3A78 Pro MoBo with 6 Gigs 1066 DDR2 RAM. I used to have it OC'd to 3.0GHz up...
Apparently I had a n00b moment and forgot that when my CPU started to act up after the year and a half at 3.0GHz, I backed it down to 2.87....which is still overclocked.. Someone noticed that on one of the other forums I post on (which is a car forum in the off topic section) that on my specs I...

I will admit that I am running Asus SmartDoctor, which is a softclock utility, and I have it on AUTO 3d game mode (which MAYBE OC's it like 8-10 MHz)....but even before I had that installed and was running purely on ATI catalyst manager, everything was crashing.
Hello everyone, this is my first post. I am not new to building and tinkering with gaming PC's, but this problem has me scratching my head royally.
