    Shut down instead of reboot

    Shut down instead of reboot

    Hello, I have an odd issue, not sure what caused it or how to resolve it. Whenever I tell my PC to reboot it shuts down. If any updates download that cause the PC to restart, it shuts down. I looked in the BIOS and I do not see anything that would control this although I could have missed it...

    New Gaming/Media PC

    So outside of the Sabertooth Mobo you guys don't see any issue? Two questions. What 670 do you guys think is better, the EVGA that I have listed that blows the air out the back or something like the Asus 670 with the Fractal R4 and Noctua NH-D14? Also, what monitor would you guys...

    New gaming rig after 5 years

    The Crucial M4 actually just went on sale at Newegg, $25 off! so it is now $125 instead of $150. I decided not to get a memory card reader after reading reviews...I will just stick with my external usb one. For a fan controller, I have never used one before. Care to make a recommendation...

    New gaming rig after 5 years

    Thank you for the recommendations. Just to clarify, don't think I was too clear on it, the GPU 670 is not in this budget, the $900 is for everything else that I plan on buying within the following 30days.

    SLOW Network speed

    that just seems like you copied a Wikipedia or something..... the router supports up to a N network, my network card supports up to the G network. I doubt my hardware is "slow" seeing as how the router is giving the other two computers 15-16mbits sec and Im about to get 10-15mbits off of my...
