  • AC(Some other games too, but mostly AC) decides to randomly restart my PC...

    Anyone have any clue why this would happen? Its been happening for a couple weeks now, at what seems random. Anyone have any clues how to help? If any further info is needed i'll supply it.

      I think you need to check the fans in your computer.

        Definetly a heat problem (I experienced it too with my older computer).

          Yeah - was a heating problem. Cleaned out the inside of my PC yesterday, and couldn't believe all the dust and things that gathered inside. Seems to be working peachy keen now. Thanks

            How often should one clean out the computer tower?

              At least once a year, even in a well-cleaned area. Even in the cleanest of homes, quite a bit of dust and fuzz will gather inside a PC case. Look at the outside the exhaust fan: If there is stuff collected on 1/3 or more of the visible housing, you've already waited too long.
