Yeah, that was my guess too. I mean, i could fly the 88 just fine up until a few months ago. I know the extra cockpit textures and dials that are visible from the 88's default position put a load on the GPU because i can hear the fan pick up a lot of speed, while the 111 with it's mostly glass nose doesn't give my any trouble at all.
I will probably have to run some temp monitoring utilities and have them log temps for CPU and GPU to a txt file, start the sim, get in an 88 and wait until the reboot happens, then check the log file.
I still think it's a case of the GPU giving off heat and rising the ambient air temp in the case, wihch the CPU can't cope with, but i hope some thermal paste will help.
