I'll give that a shot next time nothing turns on. Seems to work when it wants to atm :/

Yeahhhhh, glad to see people have the same thought as me. Kinda hope it is the PSU. At least then I should still be able to warranty it.

Basically, my computer is acting like it's completely dead, including no power to the USB ports, which there usually is in a shut down state. The problem started yesterday, and I couldn't get it to turn on at all until I used a 24pin jumper today to test the PSU (which seemed to power on...

If your budget is limited, then go for the SATA III SSD like the other guy mentioned. If your budget is that low, then you cant doing anything that important on it.

The Lexar NM610 250GB seems to get the best read and writes out of the 4. Its probably best just to look around and see the reliability of all of these tho. Personally, id go with something from Samsung, Kingston or Crucial. I've never had a problem with any of these brands.

Hey mate, So. The first thing i would change is that 2 tb ssd. For tasks like gaming, a 250 to 500 gb ssd allong with a mechanical hdd sould do the trick for a little cheaper. That way you can store your multiplayer games such as CS or Rainbow on the ssd for faster, between match loading times...

Thanks so much for the detailed reply. What ypu are saying does make sense, and i will give it a go. 🙂 Also, the mac that i am using is stuck on El capitan due to its age and im not interested on forcing the newest version of mac os onto it.

So i have a 980ti that i tried in my 2008 mac pro. I got 2 mini 6 pin to regular 8 pin cables in order to power the thing (i wont be putting the card under much load anyway so dont worry about that). When i conect everything up, the mac powers on, does the start up sound, but never displays any...

Alright. Thanks. I also think it would be. Just want to see what others think.

Is the Titan x (pascal) compatable with the 1st gen 2008 Mac Pro (the cheese grater)? I know that better, more cost effective GPUs exist and it will be bottlenecked but I have my eyes on a used one. I also have other plans for the thing. Help would be appreciated thanks : )

Hi, I've recently acquired an old 2008 mac pro that came with no hdd and want to get mac os onto it but have no idea how. I don't have access to any other mac machines so i would have to make the bootable drive through windows. I've tried some methods online with little success. Any help in...

From looking the the product page (https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/AB350%20Pro4/), the specifications say that the mobo has a rgb header. You should in theory be able to plug rgb strips straight into that. I'm not sure if those are compatible with that header but the is some other strips that will be.

Honestly i wouldn't even bother trying. I used to play pubg with a 950m. I only managed to run the game on low at 1080p with around 40 fps with a bunch of frame drops. Lowering the resolution makes seeing players in the distance difficult, ruining the game. 4gb or ram is also pushing it.
