I don't plan on building a pc until memory and video card prices stop being insanely high. If they dont, then I wont. I'll find old parts and put them together if the one I have dies. It's not...

Seems to make sense, and this to me is valuable information. To me, it makes sense because as many of us know, AMD is not the same as Intel. There is an ever increasing gap in the way their chips...

Looks to me that A12 is basically an A10 with DDR4 support, right? And every last limitation that comes with the previous generation CPU. So APUs for the current generation will be available...

seems to work fine on a first generation AM3 socket. Runs roughly the same as windows 8.1 except I was used to 8.1. I have to say, I prefer 8 over 10 in some ways, and 10 over 8 in others. It...

Well, you have no choice but to get that processor and 16gb of RAM. I think you'll see a small difference with the CPU upgrade, because of More L3 cache, and it very well might use more cores, but...

I apologize for that, CalebMcCarty, if you have no reason to believe there is a power supply issue preventing your hardware from running properly then I won't continue on about that. And I'm not...

That CPU and do more research on power supplies. Power supplies are rated at their performance for a fixed (but variable only by what the manufacturer deems "appropriate") temperature in celcius. ...

I am beginning to believe that people are deliberately being ass-holes because of a higher than usual sense of entitlement. Like, for instance, the refusal to believe that the ISP should not be...

The only real advice I have is to back up your data frequently.

The motherboard can be screwing up, too. I don't personally like the idea of attaching a new PSU to a possibly failing...

I had a really bad experience running executables from a seperate partition. The experience was exactly the same running from a seperate partition on the same drive, and from a seperate drive. ...

The shelf life of a capacitor is often much shorter than the in-use life because usage prevents degradation of the dielectric. You might want to contact Seasonic before trying that.

Can say I've...

I never seemed to buy the right motherboard until I got an AM3 board from Biostar. Only board to break 2 years service. Over 3 years now. NF7-S went out in 2 years, everything else was toast in...

When I had the time to fool with Linux it was Arch Linux for many years. The problem with rolling release Linux, though as said by others, is that it breaks just a tad more frequently. I broke it...

Could be a bad drive. That was my recent experience running a single drive. Acted like the cable kept losing connection or something. Tried a bunch of different cables. Every so often it would...

I suspect most of what it comes down to is getting what you pay for. Cheap routers are always poorly supported by the manufacturer. This is a huge problem because network connectivity/compatibility...

I think your logic pans out, did you say you recapped the entire motherboard? I had a KT133 motherboard once by MSI that had bad caps in all of the peripheral power paths which brought down the...

It does seem like a poor design. More of them or bigger. Completely aside from that, I had a card with imitation Nichicons on it once. If I'm not mistaken, polymer caps are not supposed to have...

Before you do anything else, clear the CMOS and load optimized defaults. Then test. That is the only advice I have besides the possibility that memtest86+ failed to detect faulty memory. Which...

My worthless take, I have seen motherboards mishandle the SPD timings considerably. I'm not sure why but I think certain BIOS are expecting a certain type of SPD and if it doesn't get precisely what...

Another possible scenario is a manufacturer that always stands behind their product, but you get tired of RMAing their junk every 6 months. They didn't tell me no, but I just needed a computer that...

One possible solution found.

I prefer to have video cards a little behind the technology of the rest of the system. It is much more cost effective that way.

For instance, do cpu(ivy), mobo(7-series mobo), ram(DDR1600),...

Maybe you can buy another 60gb drive and run them in RAID. Check to see if the SSD drive manufacturer recommends against this first. I think the only thing you can do is experiment. Hope it...

Don't even think of using that 400w PSU for anything. Dispose of it along with the rest of the system.

Alot of people claim to never have problems with OEM hard drives. I'm like you, though, I refuse to buy them. I have my speculations on that. I think we may have similar reasoning but re-hashing...
