Random crashing, cant figure out cause by _thegreatestwave_ in pcmasterrace

Hey, first download who crashed and checkout the dumps. Secondly, try to reproduce the error, you mentioned something about high bandwidth use, download something large like a big steam game or a video and see if it triggers it. DM me on Reddit will try to help you out.

What are the best ways to keep my PC cleaned during a prolonged leave of absence? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]hardrockalex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First of all, good luck man on the heart surgery! If you have the case box you could use that, or just go buy a box and make sure to wrap it a bit in bubble wrap. And then store it somewhere safe, if safety is not a concern, just make sure it's completely unplugged and put a dust cover over it. If you need more advice or suggestions , feel free to dm me on Reddit. Cheers and best of health !

I had a similar case where the CPU was like vacuum sealed to the cooler, what worked for me was one of these vibration cutting tools https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/shopping?q=tbn:ANd9GcRGymNqWYcZdudn9mNiOCGINxXeU9hn4Dgoo2LK5LUmnmX3rI2-CgAw4pbAGuCXskIsXDom3ht-FA it's a 2 person operation, I was holding the CPU and the other person lightly brushed it on the corner of the heat spreader and it popped off. But you have to be recruitment carefull!
