It probably is a heat problem - it definately lasts longer with the

increase the airflow a bit. (or I could watercool it of course ;). Now
that would be a sight to see)
You might also be able to try replacing the fan in the powersupply with
one with a higher CFM rating. Something I was considering before I
finally got a new computer. I may still do it sometime when I have more
space to set things up in.
As it is though.... the fan is under the power supply, and the vent is
under the hard drive. Can't imagine much air flows under or over the
expantion cards in the corner.... probably just sits there spinning
around if anything.
