The gaming rig gave up the ghost today. Came home, and it was frozen hard. Did a force reboot (i.e., turned it off), and it shut down - then wouldn't restart. Mobo has been quirky since I got it 4 years ago. Stops seeing the wireless card every few months until I reseat it. Or move it. USB drops for no reason.
Got Beef's old i7, and should be able to reuse the case, new power supply, memory, and drives. Although might get a new case, too.
Prolly not back until Sept. 15 or so in TS or game.
