    I have 16 programs/apps pinned to my taskbar. At startup, the pins are slow to load. I do have quite a few utilities loading at startup, so I can understand that. What's bothering me is during general use, they randomly disappear then reload slowly. Are there any known programs that cause this? Just a Windows bug? Just to add...The pinned programs are on multiple drives(3 SSDs and a HDD) and they all disappear and reload.

    I have had some weird hangups as well where I have to power down manually. Mouse still moves but nothing is interactable. Not as frequent as you and never in a game...usually while using chrome, awkwardly.

    Is it partitioned? May need to use diskpart in command prompt and delete a partition.

    Disk management. Create simple volume.

    At 1080p... 35-ish. Turn down a few settings should put you around the 50-ish mark.

    It's not bad for the price. As for the rating...I rated it on systems I've seen. To get a 10, I'd want to see extreme edition CPU, high end mobo, SLI, premium case, custom loop cooling, massive SSDs, etc, etc... I always recommend a bigger SSD and cut the HDD out of the budget. You can always get an HDD later since they're cheap. I'd recommend going to Windows 10 since MSFT is creating restrictions as far as DX12 and I thought they did a thing involving Skylake only supported on 10, iirc. I also recommend dual channel memory configs.

    2.5/10. Non-k cpu midrange mobo only 1 ram stick small SSD no dedicated gpu old OS +1 for a gold rated PSU 3.5/10 Edit: Didn't see GPU. Add another point, I guess.

    Textures pop in and out. Not like disappear, but switch back and forth from to HD to UHD.

    Id like to shake the guys hand that came up with that one. Just be cautious using it in public. Lol.

    Oh yea. That's what it means. But like I said, I have brothers that are half so they allow me to use that endearing term.

    My little bothers are half nig nog, but we call them nig nogs anyways. Huge part of my family's vocab nowadays.

    Good one. Keep them boys cool.

    Of course only a small OC. I've OC'd a phone years ago and it ran fine, but was hot as hell in my hand, and probably diminished it's lifespan.

    Normally, I'd say,"Just NO". Don't do it. It's a laptop. But since it's your first post, welcome to the forum. The coolermasters are the best i've seen. I never overclocked my laptop, but I did have overheating problems and the coolermaster helped until I replaced the thermal paste, pads, and cleaned the fan and cooler fins.

    Black Ops 3 Ultra HD textures use almost 6GB of vram.

    HDDs, air cooled CPU, psu fan, and case fans. Those are your noise makers. SSDs make no noise, water cooling pump noise can be silenced in a silent case, higher wattage psu with fan stop at idle, case fans need to be replaced with quiet optimised fans. I record vocals with my setup. My build is in my sig. I use water cooled CPU and Corsair Quiet Edition SP120s and one AF140 quiet edition. I don't have PC noise problems.

    @Lays Well, I guess I'm completely wrong. Pros reuse their parts from competition to competition. Meaning, lifespan of components is critical. The more you know... Sounds boring. Here I go..overclocking the same thing I did last time...*crowd goes wild*
  19. TymmVonD
    I see what you're saying, but I cant imagine from competition to the next competition, they are using the same card over and over. Also, maybe for hobbyists, but pro overclockers get their hardware from sponsors. Sponsors(manufacturers) see that if their card/mobo/pcb wins a competition, it's money well spent on advertising.

    For what you pay for? No. There is generally gonna be a premium price for a top tier product.

    I was 1080p 144Hz for years. I tried Ultrawide 1440p 75hz for 30 days. Wasn't too bad. Just upgraded to 4K 60Hz. I definitely miss the 144Hz, but the res is sooo nice. I've only plugged up the old 1080p 144hz once since upgrading.

    When it comes to PC hardware, nothing is ever enough. For real though...Z97 is not required if not overclocking and no SLI. A gtx 970 is really the sweet spot for everything.

    uninstall programs. Then go back to folder location, find any file that looks like a settings config and delete it.

    I feel my battery life has been cut in half over the last week. I never had it die on me before bed, but the last 3 night it has.
  25. TymmVonD
    If that board was designed for it, you definitely need a cpu 8-pin. Despite what a few up above are saying. I would uninstall every program based OC utility and delete the config files, reset CMOS, and start over on the OC and see what happens.
