    [SOLVED] Using 2x 1-to-2 PCIE cables to power an RTX 3070

    I recently got my hands on an Asus RTX 3070 KO and online saw some threads about powering -especially 30 series- cards with multiple 8 pin connectors with one cable per connector. My current PSU is a corsair RM750X and while it doesn't have 2 just 1-to-1 8 pin PCIE cables it does have 2x 1-to-2...

    [SOLVED] Origin not requesting download permission?

    Pretty much what the title is, every thread I've read and tried are all fixes from 4+ years ago. I've tried everything from reinstalling, running as admin and deleting hidden cache folders. The problem as it stands is, I click download on a game and it will go through all the prep then stop...

    How good is this gaming pc build?

    PC not detecting both drives

    So I recently swapped over to an SSD from my mechanical drive. Windows has been passed over to my 250gb SSD without any issue. However, I notice that whenever I went to check windows explorer for my 1tb HD it wasn't showing up. What do I do to get Windows to detect my 1tb drive?

    Moving Windows to a new drive

    Do you have any suggestions for hacking down on used space? I'm about 20 gigs from my goal of 220 rn

    Moving Windows to a new drive
