    Question New power supply's imperfect cables and electrical shorts

    After I built a computer, I saw one of the power supply cables have slight problem (slight rubber was removed). I believe that was not my fault. 1. If you buy a new power supply, do you inspect its every individual cables? 2. I worry some imperfect cables exist because I can't trust the every...

    Question Why the discrete graphics card's performance is similar as the integrated graphics card?

    The pc has AMD Ryzen 5-2400G and Radeon RX 550. To my knowledge, Vega 11's performance is similar as Radeon RX 550. So, if the pc has Vega 11 why does it have RX 550? https://www8.hp.com/ca/en/desktops/product-details/21984444

    Question How much difference are reasonable for different brands of same spec graphics cards?

    I benchmark cards for check defective or not defective. I used MSI for three days, returned it (I didn't like the low quality DVI screw holes make loose cable connection) and bought Zotac. So I don't have MSI. So I can't use GPU-Z for MSI because I don't have it. This was the MSI...

    Question How much difference are reasonable for different brands of same spec graphics cards?

    https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/msi-gt-710-low-profile-1-gb.b5859 I tested in same pc (Zotac replaced MSI), same programs, same drivers (uninstalled and installed). It looks like this is the reason.

    Question How much difference are reasonable for different brands of same spec graphics cards?

    I returned MSI GT 710 for a reason and bought Zotac, so I can't use GPU-Z for MSI. Also I didn't have GPU-Z idea during MSI time. During a test, I checked Zotac runs consistent GPU clock and memory clock. Did you have some 9% slower cards like this case?
