    [SOLVED] Oculus Quest vs Windows Mixed Reality Headset

    PC build help

    Do you want a pre-built PC or do you want to build one yourself. IMO, you should build it yourself. It's cheaper and hella fun :D

    I'm getting a random CMD in my task bar for about half a second.

    You must've installed a program that is set to start up when the computer boots. This is why you see it come up whenever you turn on your computer. I'd recommend going into the Windows Task Manager and going to the Startup section, and removing any programs you don't want to start up on boot...

    PC shutting off and wont turn on for a few minutes

    Disregard my above answer, I just re-read your question. You have applied new thermal paste and have monitored temps which are fine. The only other thing I can think of is a faulty motherboard. Could you try using a different motherboard with the same other components?
