I was thinking more just a consistently high power draw if you're overclocking it. Stuff like this is a bit disconcerting.



... As for the spikes, Gamers Nexus had them at 650+ from this video a few weeks ago.

I'm not giving up yet. I'll at least give myself a chance to get used to it. The thing is, it seems to be either for people who are completely technologically illiterate (it's actually way less complicated to use than windows; it's much more like iOS) or like... software developers and coders who are comfortable doing everything through a command prompt. Just installing things from the app store is perfectly simple, obviously, the problem is that if things don't work I don't feel competent enough to fix them.
