sounds like an overheat problem.You said your PC crashes after a few
minutes,don't you ? Check the monitoring of all the fans (in bios or using
something like 'Motherboard Monitor')..Maybe a bit of thermal paste on the
core of the CPU will be a good idea too.Is the 'Ventirad' mounted on your
CPU well sized ? (Athlon just produce lots of heat...).Fixation problems may
occurs with cheap radiator.
