    Discussion What has happened to Anandtech?

    Should I upgrade?

    Im not sure what you mean, Wouldnt the h100 work? I am not going to be overclocking this system. Looking at my system as it is right now, i agree with you about the build. Earlier this year i had a high-end xeon setup, and when i lost my job, i sold the motherboard/proc/memory and...

    Buying a Refrigerator...

    late to the party, but we just had to replace our fridge as well. from my buying experince i learned one thing. Major appliances are now considered "throw away" items and now have the life expectancy of 5 to 6 years.

    Do not by from Tiger Direct

    http://consumerist.com/2015/12/28/tigerdirect-has-new-owner-wont-accept-returns/ in a nutshell, The company got bought out and is no longer accepting returns. Whats even worst, is if you get a defective item, they will not even do an exchange.

    PC powers off when CPU is not being taxed...CPU/Voltage issue? not virus...

    i would call dust as the issue as well... when the cpu is being taxed the fan is moving more, and can blow through it.. i would get a can of air and blow it out, if that doesn't fix it, give us the model and we can probably find a guide for you to disassemble your laptop
