You don't have any disks? How young are you?

I'm twelve.



Did you order that Seagate yet or is it on the list to-order?

Yeah, if it hasnt been shipped get a Western Digital Black HDD

And consider getting a drive that is 7,200rpm.

I've had it for years. Everything on the list I either have or already have ordered.

I'm only waiting for the CPU, Mobo, Case, Watercooling loop, and fan controller.

I've had that drive for years. It's just for storage. I could care less when the things I use are on an SSD.

I'd consider the possibility of it failing if you've had it for years. You got the back up drive, so I guess it doesn't matter a ton. 240GB goes fast though.

Trust me, I know how fast HD space goes. An anything important is on the external. I could get a new one, but I still only use enough stuff to use part of the SSD and everything else is fine in storage.

Alright. :P

Well stuff guys, every 10 mins I keep getting a kernal power error. I used AMD catylast to install a bunch of drivers, it scanned my system.

Temps on mono, CPU and GPU haven't risen above 60c.
I read that it could be a faulty PSU, so I'm gonna stop fiddling bwith it for now.

wait CD's still exist?
Come to a third world country for a week. You'd be surprised at all of the things that still exist.

Lately I've been having rather strange issues with my computer first with issues with hard drives that disappear randomly, which leads to the system not booting up on the SSD. One that seems to always disappear while in use is a new 1 TB WD Black HDD that seems to be perfectly fine when it does appear (when it doesn't it's gone completely as far as the system knows; SMART shows nothing bad). The issues that occur when I do get the system up and running is randomly hanging and freezing while doing certain things, especially if it's a more intensive program like blockland or flightgear. Any idea what the heck could be causing this? The only thing that could be an issue as far as I know would be a rather low end PSU, but it hasn't given issues before.

Specs:
Intel i7 4790K @ 4 GHZ (oveclocks up to 4.4 ghz)
32 gb ddr3 ram @ 2400 mhz (overclocked from ~1366 mhz)
msi z97 gaming 5 mobo
nvidia gtx 980 w/ latest drivers
120 gb intel ssd
2 1 TB hard drives, one WD black, one WD blue
power supply: cool power gamer 1080 watt (the fact it's a no name brand is concerning)
page loss
also, windows tends to hang either before log in or only a minute or two after, after which a blue screen occurs if i let it sit for awhile
