Turns out the lenovo s30 mobo has two 4pin power connector.
One connector is located below the cpu socket and the other is placed at top of the board.
So I forgot to connect the one in the top because it is hidden behind a case fan...
A few days ago I purchased a second hand budget gaming pc:
Xeon e5 1620 cpu
Lenovo s30 mobo
32gb ddr3
256gb budget samsung ssd
Palit gtx 1060 3gb
Corsair cx750 psu
The pc randomly restarts if I run heaven graphics benchmark for 30-60 minuts.
If I decrease nvidia power slider to 50% heaven runs...
Tctl/Tdie fluctates (windows 10 is almost never truly idle)
But idle temp shouldn't go much above 60c...
Try running cinebench r20 with hwinfo64 running in background and report max tdie and the cinebench multicore score.
I recently purchased a 75Hz 1440p 32" freesync monitor, and I'm really pleased with it. Mainly play racing games.
So I would say no you don't have to purchase a 144hz screen, and your gfx card would probably have a hard time generating 144 FPS@1440p.

I understand you need Kaby Lake to test the fast memory at full speed, but a Ryzen memory comparison would be so much more interesting
So please donate your Kaby Lake system to a second hand shop and get a Ryzen setup :-)
Ryzen Vcore
I presume R7 with 65w tdp runs with a lower Vcore than the 95w versions?
If so I'm guessing the 65w version should have more overclock headroom if Vcore is increased to the same value (like 1.3 or whatever is max for the 14nm process)
Does anyone know what default Vcore the 65w and...
I'm looking for a budget 10" tablet for gaming, mainly Real Racing.
So far I have found 2 tablets, both have 2 GB RAM and 32 GB storage + SDCARD.
Option 1 have Mali-T830MP2 GPU, Option 2 have Mali-T760MP2.
So which GPU is best for 3d gaming?
