Computer freezes when playing games

When playing World of Warcraft (WOW) my computer freezes, for other games not so much. What really surprised me was that i could play oblivion forever without it freezing and yet a much more simpler game like WOW makes it freeze. I checked the temp. to see if it was over heating but ones it got to about 46-48 Celcius it stayed there pretty continuously. I was also checking the CPU usage and it was staying between 50% to 80%. I have no idea what is wrong, i updated my driver and also reinstalled it. I checked my registry, looked for viruses yet nothing is working. Please Help.

Thanks for the trouble, helpsmilie.gif
