    Possible malware on an Windows 11 device


    When I woke up, I received this beautiful email from Google stating that "Google account accessed by suspicous app". Here is the email for reference: Maybe a false positive? Please help. If someone accesses my Google account that would be a true nightmare come true. But what I find suspicous is that I fully shutdown my computer, it is literally in my room, with the psu COMPLETELY turned off and I never used the device that late. I used it till 10-30.

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
