No, you just need a stable and adequate power supply for your components.

Please elaborate on your issue. Might be a completely different reason for you.


Thx for the feedback.

as i said, i can play everysingle game in my pc.
But, coh, somethimes i cant even finish a round.
My pc crashs in 15 or 25 minutes.
Some days i can play for 5 hour and no problem

8Gb Ram DDR3
Radeon 7970
SSD 64gb

How old are your components? (mainboard, cpu, psu)
Any overclocking?

What do you mean by "pc crashs" - game goes CTD (crash to desktop), or your whole PC does a hard reset?
If it's a complete "crash", then it's most likely a faulty driver, or hardware issue.
By your description i'd bet my money on the latter.

Don't compare it to other games, it's just a matter of load (stress on your hardware basically). COH2 is known for being quite insanely resource hungry - that's why i prefer to call it "playable stress test" :snfPeter:

Check windows event logger for the cause of the crash.
Monitor the temperatures and voltages in the background, i'd recommend www.aida64.com/downloads - has a fancy graph tool as well - or anything similar.

Btw.: do you use vsync?

Had this happen to me 3 times in a row one morning but COULD NOT BELIEVE it was coh2 causing the problem... However if others are experiencing random PC crashes only while playing coh2 maybe there is/was an issue?

I think it was the morning after oct patch, good news is that it hasn't happened since :)

My pc are two years old, almost that.
When i say pc crash i mean my pc turn off and turn on again automatically.

For me, it's seens something in power supply and VGA, because the temperature its fine.

i've tryed both...with and without vsync ...and makes no diference to me.

I gonna try aida64 and come back here with news..thx a lot for the atention.

I had a similar thing with my PC- the heat sinks were clogged with dust & the heat buildup went from nothing to shutdown spikes within the blink of an eye. I was monitoring temp as well but still got random shutdowns. The heat buildup was astonishingly fast.

I'd crack the hood open & give it a dusting...
