resets pc

 

think of it as holding down power button, but faster. 

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.

I believe it sends a signal to the BIOS to interrupt the system and reboot. It's like pressing the power button to turn the system off and then back on again, really fast.

When I was first getting into PCs I was terrified of it because I thought it would wipe all you drives...

i am pretty sure it tells the motherboard to stop shorting green and black, as when it stops getting shorted, power stops getting provided.

That makes sense, basically interrupts the power flow for a brief second to kill and restore power :)

I would think that makes it easier...

 

Luckily for me I have a C70, meaning it's impossible to press reset on accident.

theres much more resistance on power button than reset button on my case.c
