The processor probably is overheating! Make sure that the heatsink is seated properly and that the processor fan is working and working properly. Otherwise, it's probably because you're required to get more case fans.

Also make sure the fan on your heatsink isn't clogged with dust.

If you want stability, don't overclock, it's as simple as that.

ya it does sound like an overheating issue, also check that in the bios that the pc is not set to shutdown if cpu is quite hot (check temperature and what its set at) and like someone else said above : check that the fan is seated correctly as this would cause same issue...... you prob could also see what cpu temp is at etc in bios too

What temperatures are you experiencing? Use a temperature monitor to find out.

I also agree it's a thermal problem.
