    How to reinstall Windows 8 on a Lenovo G580? No media, no CD KEY included.

    Thanks guys, this did indeed work for me. I made the Win 8.1 media using USB, installed, and it activated the BIOS-hardcoded key just fine. A much easier process than I expected. And the OneKey Recovery button on the Lenovo laptop didn't even work!!

    Anyone use Dropbox? Quick question - how do we clear space?

    Yes, using the free version with only 2.50GB of room. I have the Dropbox app on the iPhone 6 to sync all photos from the iPhone and also the Dropbox folder in my Userdata folder on the PC.

    AMD FX Build for friend. ~$900. Please critique.

    If he goes mATX mobo then he might as well use the same logic and go mATX case, but it's all about leaving my friend options and a couple dollars won't break the bank. If my friend decides to buy a cheap, used, unlocked i5 or i7 2-3 years down the road, wouldn't the Z97 platform provide him...

    AMD FX Build for friend. ~$900. Please critique.

    One last question re: mobo. Why not the newer Z97? I know the i3-4160 is unlocked/no OC but wouldn't the Z97 provide greater flexibility in the future?

    AMD FX Build for friend. ~$900. Please critique.

    He will be multitasking on the PC 95% of the time, whether it be email/movies/work/browsing/downloading. Gaming is at the bottom of the list. There is no video editing work. This is going to be a more mainstream build, more like an office PC. The more I think about it, the more I think I should...
