For the overlay I *STRONGLY* recommend MSI Afterburner with RivaTuner Statistics Server It gives you everything from your FPS to your CPU, RAM and GPU usage very handy and easy to setup also comes with a lot of additional useful features like video recording, benchmarking, screenshots, and it's most common use case, overclocking Oh and it's free and the video recorder works quite well. Works as a good alternative for FRAPS and Bandicam(at least for me)

One thing to note: There are 2 versions of the M.2 SSD form factor. The first is the obvious NVMe M.2 SSD which utilizes PCIe lanes to provide the fastest and most efficient data transfers possible in modern computing. The second, which was not explained in the video, is the SATA M.2 SSD which utilizes the same data lanes as a normal 3.5" HDD or 2.5" HDD/SSD/SSHD, and will consequently have similar read/write speeds as a 2.5" SSD. Another key note about the SATA M.2 SSD is that it will disable the last SATA port in line on your motherboard's interface, which can be viewed in the BIOS.

[@jrmartinez1354]

Here’s something that can change your way of life or thinking. This is the most important thing you will hear/read today. If you’ve told one lie, stolen anything, or lusted (which is adultery of the heart), you’ll be found guilty on Judgment Day and end up in Hell. But there’s good news: Though we broke God’s Law, Jesus, the prophesied Messiah, perfectly kept the Law, fulfilling all righteousness. He paid the fine for sinners ( that we could never pay ) by suffering and dying on the cross-absorbing the wrath of God that we deserve. “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” Then Jesus rose from the dead and was seen by hundreds of eyewitnesses. Today, repent and trust Jesus; God will grant you forgiveness and the gift of eternal life. God bless bro

That task manager tip is great. I've been using task manager as long as I can remember, but never knew you could do that. The latest Windows 10 version (20H2) lets you change the refresh rate right under Advanced Display Settings (2 less clicks than shown in the video).

[@FelineFurKin]

I wasn’t counting, but considering I worked in tech support for 8 years, I love learning that you can set task manager to be always on top. The amount of times I’ve had trouble with that lately, trying out newer free games on my ancient PC, heh, good to know. I had seen the option, but didn’t realise its usefulness. It didn’t come up in everyday work, I guess, cos I knew enough to do the job 😏 Also alt-f9, wouldn’t have known what it or the other one do.

Hey a cool trick for Windows10 users, if your pc ever gives you a black screen, or the monitor isn’t acting as smooth as usual, press the windows key, crtl, shift, b (or is it R? I can’t remember) For a full graphics drivers reset, it only takes a few seconds and doesn’t interrupt your game.

The item about fan speed control reminded me of my own anecdote on the subject: Years ago I had an MSI Mega 180, which was one of those PCs in a small box deal with a media center attached. Well, as I remember it, the thing got hot quickly and the fan would whirr up and slow down intermittently. It didn't bother me then, but then I was given a big word processing job to do on the system, and the fan starting up and slowing down intermittently eventually drove me nearly to madness, it sounded like a motorcyclist revving his engine randomly. So in the end, to regain my sanity, I hunted down a driver specifically designed for the Mega 180 and while the fan still came on, it was more like on solidly for a while, off solidly for a while, and it helped me immensely.

It's funny that alt+f4 is treated as something like a prank or an easter egg in the PC community when it's one of the most useful shortcuts ever. Not only can you close any app without having to find a close menu, once you hit it on the desktop, it will give you the power off/restart/etc. options.
