ok im not sure if its overheating but about 6 months ago i had a 9600pro and i thoght it was overheating because it didnt have a fan and i kept getting the VPU recover error thing when the computer locks up while im playing a game, so i bought an x700 witch has a fan and it ran fine for about 4 weeks and then sometimes when im playin bf2 it just stops and hangs the moniter goes on stand-by, i think it might be my motherboard overheating because i turned my computer off after 2 hours of playing and the heatsink was boiling hot and i dont think i have a system fan coz when i go into system health it says 0rpm but i have 1 fan on my video card, 1 in the power supply(witch was replaced a while ago) big one on my processor i just want to know how hot can a motherboard get till its dangerous and if it might be causing the crash thing
