    Will cable internet be reliable?

    Thanks for the help, I'll be calling during the week to make sure 28Mb service is available around here. With me, my gf, and our friend all being heavy internet users, the service I'm looking for had to be rather specific, which has made this whole thing a struggle, so the help is very much...

    Will cable internet be reliable?

    Being Canadian, I can't seem to use that site, thanks though. :P As we have only have 5Mb/s DSL right now (Which I just found out it seems to be the max we can get, for some reason) cable would most likely be faster even during peak.

    Worried about motherboard burning out.

    Since I have a dedicated GPU now, the onboard gpu is disabled as BIOS setting is on Auto. Since it's disabled, I cannot get readings directly from it. Problem is my computer has now started to occasionally crash/restart. Weather has been cooler lately, GPU/CPU/MB temps are now in the 30s idle...

    Worried about motherboard burning out.

    Well, my CPU, Video Card and MB are all running fine for temps, but I'm still rather concerned, here's why. I built this computer not too long ago, as a temporary solution for my previous computer, which was rather useless. My video card would not transfer over to the new computer, either it...
