Yes it smells oddly enough. I've managed to get it working somehow and its smell resembles cigarettes lol. I'll replace it as soon as possible. Thank you.

My PC randomly shut down while I was browsing and won't turn on anymore. When it shut down I could hear some buzzing sound coming out of the PC. Before it shut down, PC randomly restarted two times. This happened when I was on desktop. I never had any problems until this happened. I can play...

Yeah glad I figured it out I have this mobo for 6 years, warranty expired ages ago xD

I've managed to install it successfully by cutting those RAM clips in half lol, they were too long anyway. Now it fits in perfectly.

Oh okay, so is it safe to use temporarily before I buy a new PSU?

I've recently bought SAPPHIRE NITRO Radeon RX 580 Special Edition 8GB, and it requiers 6pin and 8pin connectors. I've got 1 8pin connector but it doesn't fit in the gpu. Can I use 2 6pin connectors, is it safe? PSU is Antec Earthwatts 500w

Thank you very much

I recently bought SAPPHIRE NITRO+ Radeon RX 580 Special Edition 8GB. I can't install it because of it's thickness, that back panel makes it top thick to put it in PCI-E x16 slot, it interferes with RAM slots, it pushes them down. Is it safe to remove that back panel?

Oh that's even better. I'll see if I can order it. Thank you.

Price is 170$. I thought about buying XFX RX 580 8GB but I've had bad experience with AMD drivers, as I owned RX 560 4GB baffin. I'm afraid I'll have problems again, so I'm looking for nVidia card, and with my budget I can go for GTX 1060.

Thank you very much for the assistance.

In my budget range, yes unfortunately. There are many other GPUs available such as RTX 2060, 2070 2080; AMD RX 5700; AMD RX 590... But I can't afford those. Actually there is one dual fan gtx 1060 available, they said they can order it for me. It's GTX 1060 6GB MSI OCV1

https://www.asus.com/Graphics-Cards/TURBO-GTX1060-6G/ http://www.palit.com/palit/vgapro.php?id=2699&lang=en Unfortunately I can only get one of those. Those two are the only available for purchase.

I want to buy nVidia GTX 1060 6GB graphics card. I need to choose between these 2: 1. ASUS Turbo GTX 1060 6GB GDDR5 2. PALIT StormX GTX 1060 6GB GDDR5 They both cost the same. Which one would you recommend?

Cool. It is red MK2 I think. I've seen it for a couple of seconds. There is MK 2 written on the box (red letters). But nvm, this one is also good. Main reason I want to do an "exchange" of GPUs is because mine is RX 560 Baffin - 896 stream processors. So anything more powerful than this card is...
