I have marathon warcraft sessions of over 12 hours and sometimes my video card will reset and shut down monitor occasionally. I notice that during this my CPU usage is at 100%. My video card is a 9800xt. I have a 3100 amd set at 2.2 ghz and use ECS motherboard with 1 gig memory, which usually at 50-60% usage during game. The card doesn't seem hot and is not overclocked.
Is it possible that wow is taking up too much CPU. Or is my used 9800xt the culprit (it had a capacitor replaced I was told). Again this takes almost a day of nonstop play to occour. Anyone have suggestions on wether it is possible the CPU could be a bottleneck or should i just get a new GPU?
