Be Excellent To Each Other

Jesus, the one you linked to is a Pentium!

Either you only want it for Word or you don't. That Pentium can run Chrome - three simultaneous tabs!

Get this one if you need an "i" in your processor: http://www.dell.com/en-uk/shop/desktops ... op/cd66825

Incredible scenes.

Are you sure? It only has 8 GB of RAM.

I only have 8GB of RAM.

ME TOO

Funnily enough RAM isn't my issue at the moment. I think I need a new CPU though as it regularly states I am at 100% usage.

Check for websites doing crypto mining.

Interesting. How can I do this?

I tend to close my browser windows when I'm not using them out of habit as iRacing is pretty CPU intensive and so is Firefox.

open task manager. See if <browser.exe> is still running and hoovering up RAM and CPU time.

Also msiexec, in case windows update is doing background sneakiness.

Not really.

Not sure which option to choose. But nothing seems to be running.

Look at your CPU usage. If it is jammed at 100% close Chrome and see what happens...

I had the issue recently with a "questionable" football stream. Thing is, with 14 cores and 28 threads I soon notice it, because the back of my PC turns into a storage heater..

I now use MinerBlock and Nocoin attachments for Chrome. That stopped it.

I can't close Chrome.

Try rebooting.

(Also, use something like process explorer and close the entire tree. If something stops this, you should see what causes it)

Do you need to run games on it too? Maybe Zardoz could help, I hear he's looking to buy something new.

Not a good sign.

Would be weirder if I could close an application I don't have installed.

I get it now.

I thought all good hipsters had chrome installed.

Is Beteo crypto mining?

It was. Grim…'s turned it off now, which is why the site is faster.
