(TL;DR: I have recently been facing random freezes on my computer. It is not OS related as it may freeze before POST or BIOS. I concluded that problem was either overheating or PSU (previously tested RAM with memtest86 and WMD). Installed SpeedFan but it did not help so I uninstalled. After...

I have replaced my thermal paste a ton of times. My laptop I have owned since 09. Every time I applied new paste, the pc would run fine around 40 to 50 c, no issues. IN the past few years, it has over heated more and more. A few times ago, I saw the pads over the gpu and surrounding areas (must...

I have a 5-6 year old gateway (P-7811fx) gaming laptop which I used steady for 4 years before getting a desktop last year. My reason for getting the desktop was due in part to the abysmal gaming performance I was getting out of my laptop in those last few months. I thought it was just because my...
