I have always bought PCs with tower cases. But in 2013, I bought an All-in-One because of space and affordability. I have had excellent service from it. It's a Lenovo C560, 23" Monitor, Intel Core i3-4150t @ 3.00 Ghz, 8GB DDR3 Ram @1600.
I overclocked the processor about 9% in a test, while mining Bitcoin. Well, I kept getting messages saying the CPU was too hot, the fan is malfunctioning, etc. I have it torn apart and scattered across my desk. I contacted Lenovo Support who were no support at all. So I contacted Intel and the tech was out in left field, babbling about hyper-drive and quantum mechanics. So I came to a forum looking for answers. My CPU is an Intel i3-4150t. I am looking at the Pentium G series. And a local tech was talking about a Xeon E series. I have a LGA 1150 socket, Haswell motherboard. I had Windows 7 Pro originally but when my update came to Win8 they gave me Home premium. It never ran well on that so for the last two years I have been using 32-bit Linux Ubuntu 14.04.2. Any comments or suggestions would be gratefully received.
