First off My system is an m17xr3 i have 8 gigs of ram that i installed and fear may be my issue. OS is win 7 64bit cpu is i7 2820qm. now that's out of the way now on to the problems, recently I've noticed some freezing and lagging. It started off in FFXIV I'd see a lag every so often (but almost every 10-15 seconds) prior to this it hadn't happened since about a year ago when my video card went out, at that time i was still under warranty so i called dell and had it replaced. Now i ran through all the system checks, ran the utilities in system repair and no issues have been found. After initially noticing the problem I did update my video driver (from nvidia not from dell) but the problem persists. As well as that I'm also experiencing random freezing. I'm wondering if its a windows or driver problem, or if its HW. Like i said before the video card kills stress tests and so does the processor. I'm not sure where to go from here. I'm considering re-installing windows and starting fresh but i dont want to do that if its a HW issue. also I'm not sure how to get Alienware Profiles and software back on if I do decide to do that. So please help me out I know this is the place for the answers I seek. Thank you for your help. oh my video card is a nvidia GTX460m

Actually I just ran OCCT I stopped after about a minute with a message saying core 2 over max value reached 87 max 85. But my cpu fan checked out on the checks. Maybe it intermittent?
