Computer problem 7800 gt HELP!!

[krouchchocolate 10+ year member]

This is weird because i just bought the EVGA combo and i had installed it using my evga motherboard. During gameplay in CS i freeze at times with my old psu and my new psu. My old psu is a 420 watt OCZ powerstream and my new one is a 600 watt Ultra Infiinity. At first i thought it was the mobo so i switched it out with a ECS A939 motherboard. When i switched motherboards my freezing would stop in cs but it was because the mobo had never deteced my cpu as a dual core so i updated the bios and it started again. So the freezing only occurs when my dual core is detected. Does anybody know how to fix this problem?

Computer Specs

-Amd athlon 3800 X2

-160 GB Maxtor Sata hd (also tryed another hd and it still had the same problems)

-1 GB dual channel OCZ Platinum Edition Ram

-Evga Mobo 133-K8-NF41 and also ECS A939 (still have problems with both mobos)

-Power Supply

1)OCZ PowerStream 420 watt

2)Ultra Infinity 600 watt

Right now i have no clue of what it is. It has to be my video card or ram. I doubt if it is the ram tho =(

did you update drivers after you updated the bios, the gfx drivers might think you only have 1 cpu when the other one is trying to work? But then again cs doesnt utilize dual processors but i would try this first.
