My laptop over has seen dramatic decrease in speed. I was playing a game fine and the next moment, my laptop turns off. I reboot my laptop and see that the game I was playing at a capped 60 fps was struggling top five fps. I checked to see if there was any thermal throttling, there was none. I think looked at my disk performance and it was at 100%. I did some googling, defraged the hard drive and some other things and nothing worked.So my friend, who is much more tech savvy than me took apart the laptop and saw no visible damage to any parts (we reapplied some thermal paste while we had it apart). He then suggested that my hard drive may have received some heat damage and I should be a new one. So I did and after transferring all of the data, I plugged in the new hard drive and the same problem was happening. We are going to try to do a fresh copy of windows tomorrow but, if I can avoid that, that would be ideal. My laptop is a lenovo Z50. Any suggestions would be great.

I really like the i7 build. I am probably going to go with that. I currently have a Asetek 550LC High Performance Liquid Cooler and wondering what retention kit I need to get for the motherboard (If it is even compatible). Thanks for your help.

I have been wanting to upgrade my CPU for my gaming pc. I am not that tech savy so any help would be good. Currently my GPU is a Radeon rx470. I was doing some research and found that the Ryzen 5 1400 causes the least amount of bottlenecking with my GPU. I was wondering the effects of a gpu bottleneck compared to a cpu bottleneck. In addition, what FPS differences will I been seeing if i want to get a Ryzen 2600x compared to the Ryzen 5 1400/1600.
