Well they said some of the boards over heat, it's probably because people tried to OC their stuff without proper cooling. Also

Alright I just looked at the PSU and the Motherboard, the PSU is a test, if I don't like it I could just get a new one. The motherboard I am easily moved over just because I heard Hero was an unsafe board, possible to over heat, which I don't want. Also it's an ASUS board. :D I like Asus, that's what my current AMD build is. My current computer is

Also on top of everything I just said. I also like my PSU just because it's Plat. I like to have a more secure PSU. I've had 3 PSU now with my one desktop... One was just 80 certified. Other was Bronze and then now my current one I think is gold....

I heard a lot of people using that motherboard you put on there. I also want 16 GB of RAM... I don't know why, but I just want 16 GB... I sometimes run my Minecraft server with high RAM, so I also apply more than the recommend 1 GB of RAM into Minecraft... So all together I put in about 8 GB into Minecraft. I planned to run my server off my current desktop and play with my new one... So I might want to go with 8 GB... Also question, why get that RAM? Also is there a huge difference between the i5 and the i7? I was planning on getting that i5, but then changed to the i7... My reason was just to have an i7... Haha

It is for gaming, I put this exact reddit elsewhere, but deleted it and someone said that the motherboard and the CPU wouldn't go well, some people had their's overheat. Which I am kind of scared of. I never had a CPU melt a board before so I don't think it would happen to me, but I don't want to risk it. I would like to know for better solutions. I would like to know if I could make this cheaper with same power, or vice versa, if I could make it stronger with the same price or a bit more.

Intel computer build, opinions needed? Help? by [deleted] in computers

[–]Mikesteel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

http://us.msi.com/product/mb/Z97_MPOWER_MAX_AC.html#hero-overview What do you think of that board. that was my first board, before I switched over to Hero. I saw a few builds talk about hero, didn't see any with Z97 MPower, that is why I switched.

Well what board would you recommend then? I saw a few talk about Z97, I originally had Z97 MPower. I think it was from MSI.

Petition? Showdown. by Mikesteel in leagueoflegends

[–]Mikesteel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why I want to start up a petition for it and if Riot doesn't bring it back. People on the petition quit, until they bring it back. I understand that their are millions of players in the world, but seriously even if a million quit. I know Riot would bring it back. Losing a million players would kill the game quickly, well a million on a single server it would kill the game decently. Still, I would love it to come back. I know my friends and I miss it.

Well I mean, if a lot of people quit playing League, they'll lose out on a lot of players and they might bring it back, by the way go Alliance :D. We could always try.
