CPU Intel i5 3570k
MB Maximus V Gene
RAM Gskill 8gb ddr3 1600mhz ram
Cabinet Corsair 400r cabinet
HDD 1 TB

Current card is Nvidia Gforce 210
I also have
Cooler master 212 hyper evo but haven't installed it yet. Thought I'd when i get a GPU..

I get BSOD & CPU overheating error at BIOS once a week, after pc is on for like 24-48 hrs and/or playing Brutal Doom (That's good old doom enhanced by graphics )

Should I wait for buying GPU until this is diagnosed?
