Best Answer

I want to buy a new computer (desktop) but I am stuck!

I can decide what CPU to choose. Intel or AMD?

Core 2 Duo or i3-i5?

The computer will be for general use but I also want to be able to play a couple of games like Left 4 Dead or Crisis.

Right now I have 500 Euros and I already have a monitor, mouse and keyboard.

What do you suggest

Your computer shuts down for no reason- CPU runs at 100 percent then shuts down with no warning?

You have at least two problems. First one is some software puts a lot of load on your CPU, you need to find which software does that (use the task manager). Second problem is you do not have effective CPU cooling system. There are many different solutions. The cheapest one is to replace the thermopaste between the CPU radiator and the CPU. If it did not help, you need to replace/clean the radiator. It's possible that you might have to install more fans inside of your case.
