    I did, and my other two cards died. And I am back to my backup now.

    Had more blue screens, I decided to just make a clean install of windows.

    Yeah, I've got a weird potential virus, it might finally be time for me to do a clean install, too. Though this long into my OS, that sounds painful.

    Damn that really sucks. It took longer for me to install the updates than it did installing Windows 10, though my Windows 10 update boot drive was not up to date.

    And it seems like it wasn't an OS problem, I think it is a ram problem. I brought up the voltage a little bit to the ram, hopefully that fixes it.

    maybe now is the time to do a fresh install seeing as the spring update aint too old yet but already baked into the official ISO so you wont have to do too much updating (not windows anyway)

    Yeah, I don't know what it is, that's what pisses me off. Windows Defender doesn't catch it, I suppose I could run Malwarebytes, but I doubt it'll catch it. It's just a weird style pop-up that'll come up in the bottom right corner of the screen, it even goes over WoW when I'm playing. Totally random. I'll get a picture of it and show it to you guys.

    Thank ya! I'm definitely excited to see all the doors it will open with that company, and potentially others. It's paid and 36+ hours a week. So these are some good and very needed changes in my life.

    A M-Friday 8-430 job?! AM I AN ADULT NOW?!

    Okay, 95% sure that the junk I was seeing was some website that had gone rogue. Closed a bunch of webpages yesterday, about 20-40 of which being different mining-topic websites, so some of them may have been dirty, who knows.

    Never mind! The crap just popped up in the bottom right corner of my screen. >

    Do you see anything suspicious in Task Manager? And if you run "tasklist" from the command prompt?

    Not really finding anything, though I have this node.js thing running, apparently. Not sure what I have it for.

    Usually when I come back to my computer after being away from it for 12+ hours, some spam is up.

    Nothing is up right now!

    Seems my old GTX 970 is totally dead.

    Tried putting it back in my computer for mining and the computer wouldn't boot up. Took it out. Computer boots up. Reinstall? Computer doesn't boot up.

    Took out the 760 from my parents' computer, install the 970. Computer won't boot up. Put the 760 back in. Computer boots up.

    Sounds pretty dead, but friends on Facebook don't want to believe that I know wtf I'm doing. Just a little irritating. "Did you seat it right? YOUR POWER SUPPLY MUST BE DEAD."

    BRO. If the power supply is dead, IT SURE AIN'T GOING TO TURN ON WITH A HYBRID 1080 TI INSTALLED, DON'T'CHA'THINK?!

    So I figured out my 3466mhz ram is having problems running at 3466mhz. But I went ahead and set it to 3200mhz but set the timings to cl14 and that seems to be working well so I will stick to that.

    Hmm. Is CL14 much less? What's the stock CL?

    Run a memory-intensive test and let us know how the results are!

    I had some problems using 3466 I think, but when I ran a memtest86 at 3200(before I changed the timings I think) and it ran 5 passes and it seemed stable. Though I might need to do some more changes to get the timings more correct to get it more correct.

    The stock CL was 3466mhz at CL16, but I put it at 3200mhz(or such) at CL 14. It might be a motherboard problem and not a ram issue perhaps, even though it says that it can handle 3466mhz. Ironically 3200mhz might actually be faster because of lower timings.

    Yeah timings is actually pretty important, from what I've seen in some reviews.

    How long have you had the RAM? Back in the days of DDR3, I had a pack of Kingston RAM that died on me after only a year.
