A 6200 is fine, but if you wan to play high end games on your computer witch it sounds like he does, I just think he should look into it. I could be very wrong, but in my expirience getting the best graphics card you can (for gameing) is usualy a good idea, I'm not trying to be sarcastic or rude or anything.

I think he will be able to get away with using a 6200 on most up to date games, I dont think any new games would require much more than a 6600 or 6800 at the most and they should also be future proof. However 6800's onwards produce a lot of heat so if the system is overheating I dont think he is going to be wanting something to contrabute to it.

Good point, Hotheads like me just like to have the best of everything and don't think about the consequences. Cooler heads prevail.

as everyone else said, upgrade your CPU heatsink/fan. just wanted to be another person to tell you this so you do not forget.

Get a high quality heatsink/fan (Thermaltakes tend to fail on me, chew on that) and a high quality thermal paste, such as arctic silver 5. Thermal Paste plays a huge roll in cooling, make sure you clean off the CPU with a Q tip dipped in rubbing alcohol, spread some thermal paste on the heatsink then whipe it off so the particles settle in the metal allowing a better contact, then add a think covering on the CPU with the new thermal paste. I suggest using half a credit card that has been cut in half to spread it.

have fun

the game which you are playing in the computer does not support your motherboard.
check the requirements of the game after that meet the requirements of the computer with the game requirements.

your computer does not full fills the requirements so that it restarts it while playing the game on the computer.

you can upgrade the graphics card and ram .

i found the Solution !!!!! Very Easy One!

it is the Bios SETUP! YES!
in section "PC Health" you will find option for temperature warning. this makes your pc shuts down instead of giving you a warning. Raise the warning temp or Disable this option.
that is it!!! ;)
