Can I have my GRUB on another drive/partition without any problems? If so, I might leave it on my HDD because Windows is on my SSD and I feel like having the option to skip the GRUB and go straight to Windows.

I installed Ubuntu after a failed attempt at Mint. I installed Ubuntu on my SSD, so I assumed that the Grub would be installed on my SSD. I recently found out that I had to set my HDD to boot before my SSD or else I wouldn't be able to get to GRUB. I am confused, did I install the GRUB on my HDD...

Thanks, I am thinking of completely redoing my Linux partitions. I want to have a set up with Linux as one partition on my SSD and all my files on another partition on my HDD. I am thinking of using a 30 gb partition for / mount point which is Linux I believe, and 20 gb for swap (read somewhere...

My current RAM is a 2 by 4gb g skill ddr3. Should i upgrade to 16 gb? Should I buy an identical set? ( I know...

The PC still boots normally even though a couple codes shows up, but they don't stay and turn into temperature.

I have a MSI GTX 970 G4. When I overclocked it using MSI Afterburner, I found something strange; If I increased the voltage by 20, the voltage would jump to 1.2370. I increased it up by 35, the voltage stayed the same at 1.2370 according to gpu-z. But I found out that at +20, the voltage would...

I reduced my clock to 4.4 ghz, voltage at 1.25. Stable so far using RealBench. Highest temps are at 80 Celsius. Thanks for the replies.
