  • If it’s not the GPU I’m almost positive it’s CPU or mobo. It’s hard locking anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour. No heat issues.

    I’ve fresh installed windows 10, 11 and tried pop os. Pop froze twice during install. Disconnected everything except the ssd, GPU and a single stick of ram. Update bios. Tried both sticks of ram individually in slot 2 where it’s supposed to go and slot 3, which still freezes and tells me I’m a dumb ass for not reading the manual for ram location. Tried installing windows on a hdd. Ram memetest86, sfc, ssd check through the bios etc.

    Wish my CPU had onboard graphics to narrow that out, but I’ll try the old GPU I have. At that point I guess I could throw my CPU in the kids pc and see if there’s issues, but will probably just buy a mobo and see.











  • I canceled last time they raised the price and started including football. The only thing prime is really good for is if you like making a bunch of little purchases frequently. I honestly don’t miss it at all. When I do buy something, you get free shipping on anything else you buy for the next 24 hours. That ends up covering the little stuff I might have forgotten on the original order and prime shipping was rarely 2 days anymore anyway, so what’s an extra day or two wait.
