Windows 10: Possible virus on laptop

I used mediafire to download a patch to a game. I had used mediafire to originally download the game and had no issues. However this time, the download button opened a page that opened a site called "otnolatrnup". The link consisted of words such as "hide engine reference", I also saw a strange file on the directory but couldn't delete in time before it disappeared. In a panic, I ran up Malwarebytes which did not detect anything and I did not trust that. I then factory reset my laptop and ran Malwarebytes again with scan for rootkits enabled. Nothing has detected a virus and I haven't seen hin

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.
