that might have been the fastest recommendation for a component i've ever seen without suggesting any other possible issues or fixes or even an explanation

So i got my current computer on April 14th 
and i have bad luck with my computers keep in mind i have had lots of pcs that i wreck
and this one was the quote last one i was allowed to get 
So when i first got this the specs were
I3 3240
4Gb of ram 
250gb hard drive
Intel hd 2500
and after a month i upgraded all of it
i3 3240 
8gb of ram
1 ssd 1 250 gb hard drive and 1 320gb hard drive
GT 1030 2G OC
and i was so happy with the performance and its still pretty good to be honest i will probally get a i7 and a 1050ti soon
but i was scared that the computer wouldn't last long as have constantly re-installed windows for no reason at all
but there was a issue where the mother board broke and i had to entirely re build the PC And put a new motherboard in after that.
and it turns out i did not put the cpu in right and 2 out of the 4 rams slots weren't working and i got them working 1 month ago after re-seating the CPU 
and now everything works fine the longest i have had a computer is 3 years and my second last one i had was for 6 months and i have had this one for about 8 months going strong 
and shes pumping the best it can to give me what i want in performance 
(wink wink might have Overclocked my Gpu just a little)

Found it

Yep a nice cool 20 degrees on idle 
Now i can finally upgrade my ram to 16 gb if i wanted to 
like i was so worried it was a bad board guess not :"?>
 

So A few weeks ago i had made  post on how when i put my ram in it wouldn't but i took the cpu today and put it back in put the ram in the slots that weren't working and tried to bootup And it booted up and the ram slots were both working 
again now i can add my other 2 gb and have 8gb of ram ;D i'm literally crying right now and it fixed alot of other issues too
Stuttering Screen , lag in gta 5 , ram issues , boots quicker ,
This literally fixed all my issues i've had with this computer
Thanks to whoever told me to reseat the CPU...
You saved my fricking life 

Thanks man. 

my guess is that the power supply (and the fuses in your house wiring) were able to hold the bulk of the spike, but what does happen from time to time is one capacitor somewhere stays charged if your computer shuts down "in an extreme manner" which keeps part of the motherboard in an unintended power state, making it unable to boot back up.
 
best example of this is some powered usb hubs may lock up the SMC in some macbooks, making them a very expensive brick until you unplug the battery and plug it back in, letting the SMC reset towards a state it should be in.

just put everything on my 2nd and 3rd hhd 

Probably not enough power at the time going to the machine to power it

Power cycling if it lost power then it will not work seem broken 
Power cycle it

i mean you can use a toaster as gpu beware it gets HOT!

i7 3770

a friend told me to get this card cause it was '' good '' bought had fun want something better now XD

i7 3770

Okay  can you help me with this
Im thinking of getting something better would a GTX 960 a core i7 2600 or a i7 3770 be a good choice with 16gb of ram
 
I kinda figured that its a 6year old dual core CPU
 
50 60

i actually don't eat that much im just fat from previous and i havent gotten off my ass LOLOLOLOLO

So i had a issue where i had to replace my motherboard about 2-3 months ago and it was working just fine and i deiced to test the 2-4 ram slots i mean the other 2
and when i tried to boot up my pc i got a error code and i reserched it and it said it was the ram so i was like okay... so i tried the same sticks in the 2 other slots and they worked
so the ram is fine but the slots won't work. when ram is in the computer won't post, so i tried flashing the BIOS updating it 
didn't work
I tried to mess with the jumpers 
didnt work
but today i managed to make the computer boot with the 2 rams sticks in the broke slots but it didn't detect the ram. it said 2.00GB and i was like What......
anyway so i took the ram out and put it back in and it wouldn't boot so i switched the jumpers back and i said screw it and didn't try anything else
 
 
What could this be. cause i could have 8gb of ram if my computer didn't do this
and im so confused

im thinking of getting a i7 3770 is that good
