All,
I have this faaabulous MB and video cards (A8n32-SLI Deluxe with two 7899GTX's) but I was having a problem when BM that it shut down under stress (Doom 3, FEAR etc).

This was repeatable (i.e. always on the same frame).

I have rebuilt the box (not quite happy with it because it's too small to hold my 5 HDD) and I replaced the PSU (Antek 550 Watt) with a ThermalTake 680 Watt PSU (P/N: W0049).

Voila! No more shutdowns.

HTH

Definitely off subject...On any key board: number 9 key is next to 0...Look at his posting time: 3:05am. That's even late for Hawaii or Alaska. Therefore, he is excused!

Double 7800GTX, five HDD's, X2 4800+ overclocked... Poor PSU... This was definitely a PSU problem...
