Having spent the past millennia recovering his strength and observing his fellow villains' defeats, Grogar proposes that they work together to overcome the Mane Six and conquer Equestria. As the villains explain to Cozy Glow, who is unfamiliar with Grogar, he is a legendary tyrant who once declared himself emperor of the lands eventually to be known as Equestria, creating foul monsters to wreak havoc across the land until Gusty the Great took his mystical bell and banished him, leaving him weakened. In the season nine premiere The Beginning of the End - Part 1, Grogar is revealed to be real when he summons Queen Chrysalis, Lord Tirek, Cozy Glow, and King Sombra to his underground lair.

In the story, Grogar battles a group of unicorn warriors led by the titular hero. If it was the CPU itself overheating I would expect the full shut-down, so I'm guessing maybe the graphics card overheating is responsible? Unless the CPU is doing some kind of partial-shutdown.Grogar is first mentioned in the season seven episode A Flurry of Emotions as the antagonist of the children's storybook Gusty the Great, which Twilight Sparkle reads to a group of sick foals at Ponyville Hospital. I also lose the ability to reset the computer by holding down the power button (I managed it once, but I haven't been able to repeat the success since). So it would seem that whatever is happening when the monitor loses video is also killing programs/processes so the CPU isn't working as hard. Originally I thought that everything else was still working, I'd just lost video, but now I've noticed that after the monitor loses the signal while playing a video game (which is when it usually does), the temperature of the case starts dropping pretty rapidly. However, I'm still getting monitor issues where it says it's lost the signal from the computer but the computer is still running and the cable is fine. The thermal sensor used to get above 40C at that location while playing video games, so the CPU fan is trying harder at least).

Since then I haven't gotten any full shut-downs while on high temperatures and the fan seems to be able to keep the CPU relatively cool (the thermal sensor at its hottest is reaching 39C, and that's a few inches away from the CPU.

(Also gonna see if I can move some cables around to help air flow, it's a bit of a mess in there.) ) so that's now on to try and keep the CPU at or below 40C now and I keep it at a minimum of 87.5% speed.

I'd say he gambled and lost mlp
