    Just watched the q&a video from Hardware Unboxed, with one of the questions being how they manage to not drop things unlike Linus, and the response...I'll let you hear it for yourselves (9:56)

    There's also the thing called one FPU per Core module. By doing so one core from two-core module literally can block other one from doing it's work - that's why even why you're "cpu bottlenecked" at AM3+ CPUs you don't necessary hit 100% utilization.

    Thank you, for stating the obvious. Man. Did I forget about that mode each time.
     
    Reboot into Safe Mode and Restart does the trick, no work involved.
    I actually was able to immediately reproduce the issue and I now know what's wrong - for some apparent issue while some ppl get greenscreen after enabling csaa type of AA I get black screen and app hang after changing resolution. Oh well.

    Thanks everyone for input on solving the issue

    Just a one tip on the post above on the battery...
    ...you can discharge capacitors on motherboard faster.
     
    1. Turn off pc.
    2. Unplug PSU from wall
    3. Try powering on pc
    4. Remove the mobo BIOS battery
    5. Try powering it on again
    6. ~1min
    7. Put battery back in
    8. Plug PSU back into the wall socket
    9. Power it on, check result.
     
    And about voltage... it SEEMS fine.
    It looks as if there would be something with TIM or sth...
    You can also try laying the PC on it's side, so the mobo would be flat, and then unscrewing the cooler and just let it sit with the force of the gravity...
    ...or perform some sanding on a mirror for the CPU heatsink. I forgot how that was called in english...

    We're just having an another boring lecture in microeconomics... Nothing special, just easy, logical stuff put into the most unappropriate and unreasonable math forms, so that none would understand it right away. ANYWAY.
    Each lecture and class room has a PC, that hooks up to the projector at the end of the room. And the whole building is newly-build year ago (so called CEUE, which is Centre of Electronic Educations in short), all stations (not so new) are these low-profile HP ones, with Win 7.
    And outta nowhere the pdf for out lecturer freezes.
    Silence on the gathered mob of 150 students emerge.
    And on screen appears "Preparing the Windows 10 Update".
    XXXD
    I just barely got my laughter contained. Sadly these HP machines were so slow, that the update unpack process didn't even end in the 50minutes we had till the end.
    At the end of the day...(or rather week) we come there for another lecture... And we see Win 7 Non-genuine Build (I believe) 7300, black desktop background and all sort of typical stuff.
    Laughter happened.
    This is so much funnier, knowing that in the building are actually people practically only associated with IT department of our University. xxxD

    Zubkover reacted to mariushm in SATA -> ATX on Single Rail PSU? +Intel WiFi   
    You should open the case first and see if there are empty holes on the 12v area on the pcb - most power supplies have lots of holes to plug wires in and solder them on the pcb and some holes may not be "populated". So you may not have to unsolder a strip of sata connectors.
    You can add as many pci-e 6pin connectors as you want, the power supply doesn't make a distinction between 12v on sata cables or pci-e cables or atx connector. As long as the components of your pc don't consume more than what the power supply is capable of producing on 12v, it outputs 12v on all yellow cables with the same "priority".
     
    If there are no empty holes to solder 12v wires directly on the pcb you could carefully strip a bit of insulation from a few 12v wires (let's say a couple of yellow wires going to molex or sata strips ) and solder your wires to the existing wires. Be sure to insulate them.
    A single AWG18 cable in the power supply is capable of about 6-8A of current (about 70-100w) with absolute safety, more if not caring about safety. You can connect the 3 yellow wires of a pci-e 6pin cable to two or three yellow wires going on molex/sata strips and the 2-3 A on each wire pulled by the pci-e 6pin connector won't affect the sata or molex strips, you won't overload the wires.
     
    as for the wireless question, don't care about that so can't answer it.
