Guys, mostly cstkl1, I have run all test dat u mention for I45 mobo...All pass...Also run orthos 9Hours stable, but when gaming for sometimes my game crash...2 of the game that I play rite now is LOTR : RotWK and COH...What probably the reason that contribute to this symptom? I OC my E8500 to 4GHz @ 533FSB and Ram @ 1066MHz...

Does your VGA overclocked while the gaming crash?

When you OC, heat is your common enemy. Although you will pass all the tests but if things gets too hot, you'll eventually lose stability. Like what gengstapo mentioned, the problem might most likely be a hot graphics card because if you pass Orthos smallFFT/Blend for 9 hours, your CPU/RAM should be good. Also when it crashes, does it give you a blue screen or it jumps out of the game back to Windows desktop?
