Hello,
I set a job to go on overnight. Processing video took the CPU load at 100%, at the morning I found a surprise. PC turned off and more sign of life.
Many doubts, but the most is : "why hardware didn't hardeare detect any possible overheating?"
For this desktop, I think they didn't assemble in a perpesctive to run full trottle, this one reason. Another puzzle, is thermal protection left to the kernel once is running, any BIOS protection doesn't do?
I'd like to understand this point in order to fall into same problem after the PC will be fixed.

if BIOS has overheat protection this prevails over all other because it's the lower layer of a PC before the mere hardware
IF this was the problem
+pc: custom | AMD Opteron 175 | nForce4 Ultra | 2GB ram DDR400 | nVidia 9800GT 1GB | ArchLinux x86_64 w/ openbox
+laptop: Apple | MacBook (2,1) | 2GB ram | Mac OS X 10.4 -> DIED
+ultrabook: Dell | XPS 13 (9343) | 8GB ram | 256GB ssd | FullHD display | Windows 8.1 64bit ArchLinux x86_64 w/ Gnome

I might bet on that was the problem. Bad financial time now, I'll have to wait some while to bring the PC to the shop.
Probably there should be a margin which consider that when the PC stops also the fan stops and then the heat would go to destruction point.
