Agree the device is pure truth. Wonder sometimes is a Rx 580 8G would be a wee bit more future proof. But the Rx 570 is top value for money.

No, no need for me to check, my model is thermaltake lite power TT 450NL2NK. It would appear that the later models have different cable arrangements.

I have exactly the same gpu and psu in my system, only difference is I have a core i5 cpu, different mobo, and 12g ram. My setup works. I have one question for you. The lite power only has 6 pin pcie connector. The asus rx 570 needs 8 pin arrangement. How did you entertain that…?

great news !

hi There is at least 3 tracks that are visibly open circuited . They can be repaired , but only by competent person , so i would suggest you source someone that is experienced with SMD reworking. The problem is that too much heat and the PCB tracks can and will lift , compounding the...

What a useful thread for an onlooker. Dead giveaway that capable psu and stable psu is utmost importance for gpu's and one can only wonder how many of them have surrendered life because of bad psu fault modes.

Thank you , I copy that as good answer , you probably right , with a GPU of > 2048 cores one could expect some nasty rate of current changes on the 12v feed . I get the feeling that 12v must be on its last leg , as GPU's enters the 150W - 400W consumption . Will not be surprised if...

Hi I am sort new here on TH and I very much enjoy perusing the GPU sections. What is noteworthy is the reports of GPU failures related to PSU fault modes. That worries me . It is 2020 and GPU's are very very expensive , a sort of most valuable asset . Also relates to CPU/Motherboard of course...

Geez , I sincerely hold both thumbs that this comes good for you in the end . Please keep us updated going forward , as I am interested .

Appreciated . Thank you.

Thank you . As a result , another question begs , I have noticed on this forum that a DDU utility excist in order to affect a clean uninstall. So I assume this is good practice , or is it not essential in this case of upgrading an excisting driver ?

Relevant Parameters : GPU : ASUS RX 570 STRIX OC 4GB OS: Win 7 64 Hi I very recently integrated this product into my system , and downloaded the ASUS drivers and utilities from their website , as the safest option at the time. That driver is still the latest on their website and is...

The quality of the psu is a parameter that was never my concern regarding the original argument. So I do not agree or disagree that the user psu is garbage. I am simply not equipped to gauge psu quality, I know very little about the model.

Thank you, noted. Yes your argument is true. Helpful.

With all respect , and especially to you as moderator , I have stated that molex path is no good , and I made it clear that in order to use a 6 pin to 8 pin adaptor , one should excersize the responsibility to ensure that the 12v does have the intended power budget . And if op is not equipped...
