    [SOLVED] Wifi intermittently loses internet to all devices, once or twice a day

    It's weird, because 82:94:45:b4:9f:2b is definitely one of my wireless devices, but the other addresses don't appear on my attached devices and don't match the other three devices that were in use at the time

    Trying to be Cautious, Second Opinions on OC with Older Board

    Hello, I've posted on here about my GA78LMTUSB3.0 rev 6 with FX6300, and I understand there's always been a good bit of contention about whether it should be OC'd at all or if it can go up to 4.5+Ghz, because of problems with NB/VRM temps. I managed to get a stable OC to 4.4Ghz with 1.4075V...

    BSOD->No Hard Disk Errors, No Integrity Violations, No Unsigned Drivers

    It was only one BSOD(CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED) but I've noticed my computer has started to have "hiccups" where it freezes for a moment then catches up.
