  • Possibly, but more likely the computer was just in need of some cleaning.

    My friend plays Helldivers 2 on his laptop with integrated graphics on medium and hits 30fps. Any CPU from the last 8 years should be enough.

    For the finals, yeah maybe you need something more powerful than that, but not by much. A 2070 is a fantastic GPU, it would be pretty weird to have a GPU from 2018 but a CPU from way earlier.






  • UPDATE: It crashed again today, and I was able to pull some logs and check the temperature at the time of the crash. (91 degrees which dropped to 71 degrees right before crashing?

    From system log

    From dmesg

    arp: 192.168.1.61 moved from someMAC to anotherMAC on igc1

    I mean, I’m not saying that errors on the drive are the CAUSE of the problem, more likely a symptom, but it does look like it just straight up crashed, right?


  • Dmesg doesn’t go back very far, does it? I only see the current boot and the one before that, which was a normal shutdown.

    I believe I was able to see the last logs before the system turned off last time, and the last messages were syncing discs and all buffers synced, which I would have expected to be part of a normal shutdown.

    If it happens again I’ll be sure to get the logs before the crash or shut down and save it to a file.
