well I figured ito ut was my processor by running openware hardware monitor
i7-3770k all cores running at 800 mhzand at 103c
looks like my heat sick got a little unscrewed from the fall
its still running kinda hot and I can tell its still a little unjarred (just having Chrome open, its at 60-80c) when its usally around 36-42 c
but thankfully ive found the problem and if worst case scenario ill just need a new heat sink (im using stock heat sink on i7-3770k anyway, OC'd to 3.9 GHZ)
after starting a game of BF4 they jump back up to 105c so hmm
edit: got them down to around 38-45 idle.. 60 max.. ill have to take that.. until I decide to buy a new heat sink
one of my fans is running at 2200 RPM im trying to remember if thats normal or not
sounds like you have it under control, you may want to just clean off the heat sink compound and reapply some new shyt...then make sure everything is screwed or clamped down well.
you got off lucky man, i was afraid that your GPU may have been damaged in the fall. those things are so big nowadays that the PCIE slot can't take that kind of an impact and support the weight of the card.
I got it idling how it used to now (around 40c) and played some BF4 and it peaked at 79c so im good with that (stock fan)
I play in a hot room which is why it also seems higher
but shyt last night my processor was so hot and fukking up I could barely even open Chrome
DF is BUSY

what case are you using?
Antec DF-85
that shyt looks tight.
looks similar to my Cooler Master HAF but with much more Hard Drive space.
my case can fit 5 drives but that is only limited by the mobo sata inputs.
i could stack SSD's ontop of SSD's for days or HHD's ontop of HHD's for days if i had more inputs on my mobo....nice case man.
this shyt has a hot swappable SSD port on the top of the case
I dont ever use any of the swaps though.. yall would laugh if yall saw what HDs ive been using. But I got it for the cooling the 7 fans and air flow in this shyt is crazy
my internet suddenly choked and i went to my router logs

- the 24. ip belongs to roadrunner
the heck? do nothing and get attacked, brehs,
I feel ya
That shyt happened to me once before too, for no fukking reason. Muthafukkas from Iran trying to hack me and shyt. Matter of a fact, back in the day I got "gang rapped" by some Germans (i.e., I got hit from multiple angles at once and my firewall/antivirus couldn't catch up).
It's cold out there brehs

I actually have other stories I just remembered...lol. Go on TOR and watch your computer mouse move by itself and go straight for your "my documents" folder, brehs.
(that was all my fault though...getting all curious and going to a "hacker" forum and getting hacked...I should have expected that...
)No more TOR and nothing but NoScript from then on out....

damn bf4 really does kill systems haha.
Brehs my PC is struggling so I go to the control panel to see what's up. It says detected new hardware
I refresh and now get that :
Total amount of system memory 2.00 GB RAM
Used to have 4 GB before. How can I tell which stick is dead. I was gonna buy new ram anyway, but how do I know which is compatible with my motherboard? The one I have right now I believe is MSI MS-7522 (DDR-10600), should I buy 8GB or 16GB? Keep this in and add more or completely replace?
