hi and welcome to the forum. A GT1030 would be more than enough. But I would get a GTX1050 (non ti) just to be sure. 

I say dont do it, unless you need the extra cores for productivity.

isnt this what you need?

if that doesn't work try booting up with a portable linux OS. Make a bootable usb with debian or ubuntu live and see if it works( try each 970 separately). If the problem persists then i think your motherboard is dying.

That seems about right?

SSHDs have a small amount of flash storage that learns your most accessed files(usually OS files) and places them in that area for faster access. All the other files stay in the platters. Every time you run a benchmark, it measures the transfer speed of the mechanical disks. In other words, if you really want fast access for everything, get a real SSD.

Hi and welcome to the forum. 

That hub you listed is compatible. It does not have the new type-c header so it uses the old 3.0 header, (not a big deal though, you still get 5 Gbps).

About the usb headers and pci lanes:

1. Can short what is connected to it if not connected correctly or MOBO does not support amount of usb slots

 

if you exceed the amount of ports supported, some devices might stop working.

Also, you can short your mobo if there is a bent pin in the connector for example.

2. Not all usb slots will even work if once again the MOBO does not support it

 

same as # 1. each usb 3.0/2.0 header supports 2x ports at full speed. if you exceed the number of devices per port, some ports might slow down or stop working altogether.

3. Bandwidth will not properly spread out across all of the usb ports(There are 4 btw and they're usb 3.0)

 

Yes and no, unless you are running an SSD on each port, you wont saturate all the bandwith.

On a side note, I have never saturated all the usb ports/pci lanes in a system.  An average user uses like 4-5 usb devices at most at any given time (not counting mouse and keyboard). So I think you should be fine. 

I am using the NZXT Aperture M, and the first thing I did was to connect a bunch of things like a 3.0 hard drive, flash drive, sd card, memory stick. All worked just fine at full speed.

It's a nice case considering its age. 

You could remove the firewire port and then use the cable I suggested earlier. Put some hot glue in the back and you are good to go.

Link please, if possible.

Interesting, I couldnt find any with type c, only micro usb. But I found this one in another site:

http://www.usbgear.com/CG-7PU313C-PS.html

or you could get a regular hub and get an adapter.

Aliexpress has a few of those

It seems like the NZXT Manta might be able to fit your gpu. Check this video:

Lian-li sells the cable, I guess you could mod the case to make it work

Edit:
Yes you can

I'll edit the main post and put the eventlog in there, and although idk how to get the router log, i'll include a link to the router/modem(modem and router are 1 single device).

And i have already scanned for malware.

Quote me next time pls.

I couldn't open the MTA file, but your event log shows quite a few errors related to connectivity. Some are just generic "no connectivity" errors while  others show pci errors and DNS errors. I would try flushing your DNS cache and changing your DNS server (in your router/modem) to google's 8.8.8.8

https://www.technipages.com/flush-and-reset-the-dns-resolver-cache-using-ipconfig

we need more info such as your pc event viewer log and your router's log.

I assume you have scanned for viruses and malware?

These are 3.1 gen 1, which is the same speeds as 3.0. They are still use the old 3.0 header (thats the dead give away)

not sure about the inwin but the lian-li is Gen-2  ( 10gbps) because it does have the new header. You can see the cable in this picture:

https://goo.gl/photos/xwfkdzgd4q9T7Kep6

there are a couple of cases I think, the inwin 805 infinity and the lian-li PC-O11WGX

Take a look at the spec cases from corsair. They may not be the best but at least they fit your criteria.

Another option could be the Cooler Master CM 690 III White.

the 1060 is a great card and will run some games at 1440p ultra 60+ fps. I say keep the 1060 until the next gen comes out.

I guess you could try to rma the card. If you got it on newegg or amazon they will honor the warranty. Other sellers might not do it, they consider overclocking as user modification. Contact asus and tell them the card is barely stable at stock.

hmmm maybe you are right... i just tried make downclock and there is no black textures anymore

but im not sure if that is worth to keep on these settings

set everything but the power limit to stock. Something like 110% will do and run some benchmarks. A few cards have issues with gpu boost for some reason. 

I had it happen with an unstable overclock. Either raise the power limit or downclock your card a little bit. Also in nvidia panel, change power management to adaptive or performance.

Did you have a previous configuration in your AP? You might need to manually configure your AP. Depending on your device, some AP have a default IP so you can access the configuration portal.

If your AP has dhcp enabled by default, you have to make sure it is getting a valid IP. 

TLDR: read the user manual for the AP, make sure DHCP is enabled and try again.

Did that internet just stoped working on the laptop

Will try again tho just to be sure

you have to do it with the wifi connected but the ethernet cable disconnected(otherwise it will share the ethernet to your wifi). Your new bridge should show the same name as your SSID. If it says something like "limited connectivity" or "ip conflict" , right click and select "fix issues"

select both wifi and ethernet adapters > right click > bridge connections
Connect your AP to the ethernet port and you are done.

Well discussing about circumventing your network security at school is against the forum rules, but I will tell you this: it is not IP flooding. Some switches can limit the amount of connected users, so unless you have access to network administration, you are SOL.

go to disk management, right click on the partition and select extend volume.
