That's solid advice, thank you. Will come back as soon as I'm wiser on that one!

Gentlemen. My month-old rig (7700k, 1080 Ti, 960 PRO) has a bizarre freeze issue I can't handle anymore. It happens right out of the blue and (seemingly) regardless of what I'm doing; the mouse cursor starts freezing randomly and clicking things is randomly unresponsive, when clicked things...

Well where am I supposed to use them? There no other holes in the case.. can it be that it's only those 6 holes who're supposed to be used?

No plastic standoffs came with the mobo or case :/ The mobo "fits" but the hole on the far middle right won't be used, and there is no hole in the case for it either.. I don't get it.

So I'm building a new system, and my Asus Z270H board doesn't fit with the ATX standoffs in my Fractal Design Define S case. What the heck is going on?? I'm kind of freaking out because this is one expensive build! Take a look: http://imgur.com/a/ha8Xv

Yeah I left it for an hour and gave up. I think it was just pure luck that I could still restore my 8.1 installation. No idea how to get W10 with a clean install now, I suppose it's best to just leave it and come back when there is a physical copy out for sale.

I used the upgrade tool and chose to do a clean install, now it's stuck at 2% and is NOT moving. Do I have to abort the whole thing and just re-install 8.1?

Ah I see, I guess that's it then. Thank you!

I took for granted that that my 8.1 key would work, but of course that wasn't the case, not at all. So am I to understand that I can't do a clean install of W10 without a physical copy? Is a clean install possible at all right now?

For 6TB that is gonna take days though?

Well not exactly sensitive but you know, private stuff. You mean a full format as in right-clicking and un-checking "quick format"?

Gentlemen. Selling my rig and building a new one, and I must erase my two 3TBs in RAID 0 before I send it away. I'm aware of dban, but won't deleting the raid in bios pretty much serve the same purpose? Seems way faster and easier than spending a whole day formatting.

Yeah I'm gonna RMA it, sending it tomorrow most likely! Right now I'm using the same computer but with the integrated graphics on my CPU. So no gaming for me meanwhile :P I just hope there will be no after-damage to my monitor or stereo or anything else!

Turns out it was the graphics card. What are the odds, right?
