" rel="nofollow - My system build consists of a an AMD X4 860K on an Asrock A88M-G/3.1 motherboard with a graphics card(i don't want to take the time to find the gpu name and model). The power supply is a 550 watt supply.

Using HWMonitor I am getting CPU temp readings close to 60-70 deg Celcius, but the CPUTin is reading closer to low 40's. Furthermore, occasionally the system will have a memory error and need to restart when trying to play GTA 5. Any advice on this issue?

" rel="nofollow - [URL=][/URL]Are those temps under load? If so they may be fine as one will be an on-die sensor and the other in the socket itself I think.

What memory error are you seeing something from Windows?

Are you sure the modules are properly seated? If you only have two in, you can try moving them to the other 2 slots (assuming it has 4).

Also check out the TechPowerup Memory tester:

Also make sure the RAM is set for its rated voltage.
