Windows 10: A weird moment

So my old computer was dead for like 4 years because it was stuck on the loading part with the windows logo on boot. Today I heard the windows 10 "background" noise and saw that AFTER 4 YEARS it came back to life? It has 30% charge too like I'm so confused.

double post (sorry) but another good way is to sort it by FSB, so that people can look to the top of the list to see the best OC'er in each category.


possibly sort it out by core type as well?

Kentsfield (B-3 stepping)
Kentsfield (g0 stepping)
Conroe
Conroe 1333 FSB (e6x50 line)
Allendale (2M 800FSB)


its an idea, but the list is somewhat short at the moment so it may be pointless til it gets bigger.

 

Weird Overclock

This is not weird in any way. 1600MHz idle is normal for i7 3770K, it's called Speed Step. The CPU will not stay at the max turbo speed or over clock unless under load.
