Windows 10: How long/when does it get better?

New HP Pavillion gaming computer. Fast until all of a sudden the cpu is running at 30% at idle. Things slow to a crawl, long story short, reinstall W10 overnight because satellite data limits. Back to fast. Now I've lost all my email and browser profiles, I have to go back to my old w7 HD to get info. Remove all the startup crap. Get most things running again, it's 2 weeks now since the w7 crash. This AM the time has been changed to PST for some reason. One of my monitors keeps winking out., the screen size is either too large or too small, no adjustments to fonts in the OS. Who made this crap. I might have as well just installed Linux and started over. Everything MS touches turns to crap. Or is it just me? I still haven't installed office for Excel and Word. Fearful about that.

When does this end? Rant over.

What kind of quad.

I suspect you are at "the edge" of the power rating for the mainboard. Perhaps Q6600 wasnt listed due to TWO versions, C3 stepping at 105W and G0 stepping at 95W. Furthermore, if you OC the G0 Q6600 then it will use more than 95W. Since Q9300 is on a 1333 buss, then perhaps the BIOS doesnt give you scope to OC it, keeping it well withing the 95W envelope.

My suggestion is, if the mainboard is important to you and you dont want to blow the power regulators or caps, to NOT OC the Q6600. Take the thing out of design spec (by OC'ing it) and you may very well rapidly reduce the half-life of your board.

Also, as erocker suggests, there are 65W quads out now. I think those are better suited to this mainboard.

Good luck.
