same.

i bought win 8 with my student discount when i heard we get the free upgrade to windows 10.

well, fans that arent on the GPU and PSU are super easy and cheap t replace. Dont know if its possible to change gpu fans without voiding the warranty.

gpu fans like mine i can surprisingly swap out just because you can put a huge waterblock on it and use it in a open loop water cooling system.

there's no sticker on the screws saying i can't take it off...but i'll stick with the warranty. hell, it might solve my coil whine problem too with a replacement ;)

goddamnit my 760's ACX cooler is going bad. makes this terrible grinding noise when the fans spin up and it drives me loving insane.

thankfully evga has a 3 year warrenty on it but i have to put down full price for a replacement until they get my old one.

i hate fans. they suck. they make lots of noises when they get old and it's loving annoying.

I would do HO it's way cheaper and way more accessories to buy for it.

we got G and HO running. behind me would be our O table (not pictured).

our O stuff is a mess because we're renovating the forget out of it.

Moto X? Easy.
fastboot oem unlock (or get the unlock code, from the website)
reboot phone, let it reinstall everything
go back to fastboot
download twrp or cwm
fastboot flash recovery (twrp or cwm)
select recovery, go to it
flash supersu
done

just like google :).

btw for oasis you're loving lucky.

Alright, so its basically iOS jail breaking level of simplicity?

it depends, there's guides for each phone.

for my first android phone i had to exploit my SD card and make all the loving planets align. for this nexus all i had to do was flash an image with supersu and the su binary.

sounds like the cpu is overheating big time.

go get some thermal paste and rubbing alchohol and reseat your cpu cooler or whatever.

...or clean your PC. one of the two.
