  1. Having a blue moon right now but this is what my current workload looks like
  2. So, I'm still running pretty hot and I managed to hit 84 degrees but my average seems a couple of degrees lower and I'm idling much lower. It does appear that clock speeds are dropping when it starts to get into the high 70s and I haven't had it turn off on me yet I'm starting to look around for a better cooling solution
  3. Seems to be running cooler now but I haven't had a chance to put it through the paces yet I took the downtime to go ahead and install Windows 8.1 for some unknown reason Should have everything loaded back on it tomorrow and will test it more thoroughly Thanks again for all the help
  4. I think that's pretty accurate
  5. Thanks for that Humanoid I had been using AIDA64 but I just ran HWinfo64 and got pretty much the same readings while playing Rift my CPU is getting up over 80 degrees and I'm not seeing the clock speeds drop any I plan on doing as the others have said and disassembling/cleaning/adding new thermal paste/reassembling my machine tonight and will let you know if there is any change afterwards Thanks again
  6. I did and my CPU is running hot but with my lack of expertise in this area I don't know if that is my only problem or if there could be other things I should also look into but thank you all for your suggestions
  7. Pretty much as the title says. It usually happens during gaming but I think there may have been a couple times when it cut off and I wasn't gaming. Also, no blue screen and no error messages or anything. Just on one minute and off the next. I think it may be overheating but I wanted to see if any of you guys had any other thoughts of likely culprits because hardware isn't my thing AMD FX-8150 Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 16GB DDR3-1600 2 AMD Radeon HD 7770 850 Watt Corsair CMPSU-850TXV2 2 120GB SSD 2TB HD I dunno if there is any other info you may want. I bought it from ibuypower a little less than a year and a half ago
  8. Pepper spray campus police officer awarded compensation

  10. was that the Falcon?
  11. Man steals woman's wallet, woman buys man food
  12. spiced rum and dr pepper I'm currently floating in vanilla heaven
  13. Trying to decide what I want to be for Halloween this year. I usually do sexy ninja but this year I'm thinking of mixing it up and just doing regular ninja or maybe sexy batman but Clooney style with the nipple suit
  14. a little of both I guess I know you were responding to Rostere but it caught me a little off guard, apologies
  15. are you really trying to paint the natives as the bad guys?
  16. Billy Idol kind of night
  17. I think I posted this one before in another thread but this is how my dog sits
  18. I saw this a while ago and it pretty much goes along with what I've seen growing up in AZ Fewer Latinos will speak Spanish, more non-Latinos will, report says
  19. We do not have an update planned for tomorrow. No need to stay up for it. Thanks for the heads up Can we expect one next week? Back on schedule as it were or should we prepare for the possibility of it being a few more weeks before the next update?
  20. When I worked in an office people would always come in sick (unless they were on death's door and sometimes even then) and we got a little more than a week of paid sick days a year that are separate from vacation and whatever else. But like Gfted1 said nobody wanted to burn on day off on being sick and would save those sick days and instead use them as an extra week of vacation
  21. There is a lot of good food around here, I was surprised when I moved I think I mentioned it before but Williams and Graham is one of my favorite bars in the area. It's set up like a prohibition era speakeasy with the front as a small bookstore and one of the bookshelves is a secret door to bar behind it. I really like their New Old Fashioned Last night I made some short ribs in the slow cooker and they came out very, very good. I wish I could remember what all I put in there but I was more than a bit tipsy when I started cooking and more than a little past that when I finished
