I decided to kill a little time and cranked up CoD4. I've played this game for years on my MP1,1 (x1900 and later 4870 GPU) without problems. After a couple of minutes in a match, I thought I saw a horizontal line on the screen for a split second. About a minute later, the game and machine froze up. After a hard shutdown and reboot, I found a kernel panic log. What worries me is that I think I saw a similar line "flash" previously but I was not sure at the time I actually saw it (it's very quick).
2010 Hexacore with 5870, 8GB RAM.
Anyone else experiencing anything like this under intense graphics activity?
