    amd stock fans can usually hold there own i have even overclocked on them but never hurts have more powerful cpu fan but dont think this prob you said u added new case fan didnt you check see if they are facing in right manner for air flow if place blowing the wrong way and they face diffident ways in different areas of the case if faced the wrong way can make case even hotter then before added the fan.

    AHH! Captain is right; get a better PSU if not at least 750W. Check out Corsair, I have a 1000W unit of theirs.

    yeah, fans are blowing the right way

    i cut a whole in the bottom front of my case and put a fan in there, it blows fresh air into the bottom front, I have a fan positioned at the side blowing air on the cpu/graphics, angled slightly so it blows air on them but also moving air towards the fan at rear, which is at the stock position under the power supply

    here i made up a really bad drawing

    i tried running the prime95 and it ran for a few minutes then my pc froze and i had to reboot

    like i said, ive been running fine on this setup for a while now, save a lil problem here or there, but I definitly have been running smooth for the last few months, until yesterday, and I havent changed anything, last update I did was 4-25-11, and that was just a windows update, but no problems till yesterday

    You have exhausted my knowledge, I feel as though the first core on your cpu is taking a beating; download Real Temp, and measure how hot your first and second cores get while playing.

    If Prime95 is freezing your comp, I am not sure what to do about that, as I have never used it.

    Heat is definitely an issue with the setup as captain pointed out. Measure the temps though.
