Default P.C built! now problem time...

thought i'll start a new fresh topic from my pc build one

so i bought the 5200+ chip.. 5.2ghz for defo a good price! & wow its amazing! actually does what i tell it to do & instantly!


BUT.. runs fine browsing web playing tunes & vids etc etc.. but just a moment ago i was "killing spree'ing" on online counter-strike source! well afew kills tbh nah im quite good but a good 20min to an hour playing the p.c restarts im thinking its overheating? i downloaded yahoo widgets got dual cpu meter, ram meter & a temp widget for everything lol hdd's, cpu, cpufan rpm, ram, system, core because i got dual screens i can keep a eye on them meters when im playing counter-strike, but when im playing they all seem fine not going max'ed but still restarts

cpufan is plugged into the mobo & i got two other fans i got on a fan controller (one on side of case & the other inside pointing up) obviously while playing games & when i feel like it i turn them up fully but there never on min always around mid rpm for normal useage, so its gota be something else playing up or it is the fans

Do i need more fans for this beast of a p.c or is it this weather now & need more anyway? my room gets quite stuffy sometimes like a sauna but not that bad! if you know what i mean, i just suffer real bad from heat
