    Hello everyone.
    want to take with you one question.
    maybe this happened to anyone else.
    Overclocking my Asus G73jw Gtx460m 800/1600/1500
    Shuts down after several minutes of Games

    I find it strange because this does not happen in the tests with the FurMark (extreme) During Hours Using overlock 160FSB CPU - GPU 800/1600/1500

    What can it be? Will this also happens in the model G73SW
    One of the games that always occurs shutdown, after about 5 minutes is MAFIA II, in Encyclopedia of Cars

    Someone has Mafia II installed and can do the test?
    remember you go in the encyclopedia of cars and wait about 5 to 10 minutes.

    Recalling that the Shutdown Happens Here, if the video card is with Overlock Above 725Mhz.

    Thanks for Attention
