New gaming computer randomly freezes during play

[nbm02ss]

I had the same issues as you when I first built my Sandy Bridge rig. Turned out I put too much thermal paste on it. I believe I used a little less than pea sized drop when I reapplied it and I haven't had a problem since, and that was back in Feb.

Probably the fault of the temperature, correct air flow

Hey guys, finally solved the problem, it was a RAM error. Thanks for all the advice and help.

Alright so I'm currently typing from my IPod ATM because my computer doesn't want to turn on. I restarted my computer, and whenever I'm supposed to press the button to access the BIOS, you have about 2-5 seconds to press the button

I failed to press the button in time so I turned my computer off before it fully booted up, which probably is why it won't turn on
