everytime i turn my comp on, it stays on for not more than about 20 minutes, then shuts off out of no where. i think this maybe the power supply but im not totally sure. when i play a game like cs, its laggy, when i turn it kinda ghosts. pretty sure this isnt a vid. card prob specs - radeon 9800 pro 128 mb, 256 bit 2 fans in back, 1 fan in front pentium 4 2.8 ghz 512 corsair pc 3200 80 gig WD HD power supply 420watt p4 titan gigabyte mobo any help/suggestions would be appreciated

I would check to make sure that the CPU fan is running, power supply fan also. Get some air in the can and blow out you're computer too. If all above is good the replace the PSU.
