    Just don’t unplug it while it’s doing the update…. It’ll be fine. And if it seems like it’s taking a while, just let it take a while. It’ll do it’s thing. 
     
    If by some crazy chance the power to your house does go out while your doing it…. You will need a new mobo. But the odds of that are extremely low.

    If it loses power midst the update it will brick the motherboard.

    Flash it with a usb flash drive plugged into the back of the motherboard and just don't touch anything while it's updating.

    If you want it simplified, you can get a pair of NF-P12's and a NH-U12S to replace the current fans and cooler.

    Allmightyballs got a reaction from WoodenMarker in Inwin 101 Case CPU cooler   
    @WoodenMarker The exhaust rgb fan does make noise on occasion but the stock cooler just recently started throwing drops of oil/liquid on my graphics card which is the same thing that made me replace the front fan. Front fan was making the same noise as the back fan does while slowing down, vibrating & heavy leaking fluid. I thought it would be best to go ahead and just replace them all to be on the safe side.
    Your correct I noticed I installed it backwards it was supposed to be an intake fan
     
    When it comes to Walmart, basically they had screwed me, knew they did and after I called Corp it finally got to the regional VP who made them sell it as they had promised. I went to pick it up and they had removed the bottom row of fans, kept the mouse & pad, keyboard, and 1 of the Raidmax fans. Long story short they had already pulled it from the shelf took parts out of it and told me it was no warranty, as is sale(being floor model) and be happy and leave it alone since the cost was 200 instead of the 599, given the parts in it during a bad pricing time I said ok. Im going to do an entire write up about the event for others.
     
    In the US. I would like to go ahead an replace the CPU cooler for the long run & how I tend to use the PC for long periods of time under load(games, recording, edit software ect). Ive found a 5 pack of deepcool single connection fans on Amazon for $34 and after watching some videos last night I may got with a Noctua cooler instead of the hyper 212, it seemed smaller & quieter but haven't price or spec checked yet

    Allmightyballs got a reaction from SenKa in SSD Space disappears randomly   
    No windows old file which kind of surprised me, my other PCs all have it & I had to delete those before.
     
    Thanks, Ill check the Windirstat. Others recommended Tree something but I couldn't get the link to work.
     
    @TechyBen I did not know that but Ill look into it. What made this so weird is how I stopped playing games & recording for a week or 2 then once I turned the PC back on its like my SSD has become a crappie Samsung battery and is quickly depleting

    F:\ Is where the recovery and boot information lives. You can remove the drive letter via Disk Manager but do not get rid of partition itself (unless you want to no longer boot into Windows).
     
    I'm going to guess G:\ is a different physical drive.

    I'm a fan of HWiNFO64.
    Maybe, it's probably not that bad of a PSU, but by no means will it be good. Cyberpower skimps on their base model PSUs.

    I would say better cooler, better PSU, and probably replace the fans all around with something like Corsair AF120s.

    HWinfo, in sensor mode specifically.
     
    Thermaltake 80+ white is alarming. Maybe not a immediate threat but I'd replace it.
    tier C or higher will do.
     
    nah, for an 8700 air coolers like the Deepcool Gammaxx GT (since we're going with lights) will do.
     
    CPU cooler, fans, PSU and another kit of memory. Preferably a pair of 4GB 3000MHz.

    Just replace the fans and you should be good.  THe motherboard doesn't spin the fans backwards.  This is a defective unit with bad fans that's all.
