yo,
my PC is sick. i don't know what's wrong with it so i hope i can get a diagnosis lol.
last week i started getting weird HDD problems. sometimes i would hear the HDD clicking - sounded like it kept trying to start but something was stuck, and at this moment my computer would freeze until it stopped clicking.
then, just then, as in 5 minutes ago, my PC randomly froze, so i restarted the computer and then it woudln't boot. i took out the CMOS battery, unplugged the PC for a few minutes and plugged it back in. somehow it's working now.
i have no idea what is it.
could it be my measly OC?
my HDD dying?
hot temps? (i did take out most of my fans)
none of my voltages are set really high though.
CPU is 1.35v, RAM to 2.0v (rated to 2.1v) and GPU runs 50c idle (running a passive Thermalright HR-03)
any suggestions?
i'm most confused about the HDD clicking noises
