I wonder the same thing, but it does fix the problem. so either it is getting so hot that it expands and the connection in the PCI-E slot get moved, bad contact? or pulling it from the MOBO resets the internal CMOS(complete guess as well). I calculate my system pulls 1250w at max load which is...

each video card pulls 500w, so with the CPU and additional power draw even a 1200w PSU wouldnt cut it. Also this wouldnt make sense that removing the card from the MOBO and re connecting it would fix the problem.

So, Ive been having some issues with my card. I have 2 R9 295x2 in my computer and it will run great for a while, then when under heavy GPU load for a while the computer will crash and will continue to crash everytime I put a heavy load on the card. I found that if i turn the computer off...

Im an idiot. I assumed Motherboard failure. I got a new motherboard and when i was assembling the PC with the new motheboard, i realized the GPU power cable wasnt plugged into the PSU (modular). User error...

Supermicro X10DAL-i with 2 x 2658 v3 I cant get the machine to boot. I get 10 quick beeps or 5 quick beeps. Im thinking maybe the motherboard is bad. No video output. ive tried two different GPU and no luck. Moved the Ram everywhere, cleared the bios several times. I have all the connectors...

yes skit you are correct. I called logitic and they verified that the software must be installed on the machine it is plugged into.

I'm looking for a macro mechanical keyboard that doesn't require installing software to make the macro keys work. I purchased the G710+ but it requires install of software. I'm trying to use it for work for productivity reasons, but my work computer is super secure and locked down and wont allow...

then whats with this? http://www.anandtech.com/show/8568/the-geforce-gtx-970-review-feat-evga/15 total system consumption under load is 280w

Im building a Mini ITX computer with limited space, i have a flex atx psu that has 300 watts http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817104145 other items running SSD 240gb 2 Ram sticks (2 x 8gb 1600 DDR3) about 5 fans total i5 3750 ASUS p8h77-i (37.5watts?) what do you guys...

i think thats a non-standard power supply form factor. its only 220w which is very low you, but the card says only 35w, im sure it needs a little more juice. You could pick up an aftermarket power supply that might fit. Ebay has some that are made the same form facter and are 300w but are off...

so my setup 4gb ddr3 1600...............5W 8gb ddr3 1600...............10W? SSDnow 240gb..............6W? i5 3570.................121Wpeak MSI GTX 750Ti (chip is rated 68watts peak, but MSI has afterburner technology which is overclocking the GPU which would take up even more wattage.. How...

OK so im replacing a PSU on my SFF lenovo m82 computer that came with a 240watt psu. I added a low profile gtx 750ti and am getting power offs during gameplay. It should be enough power with 240watts to cover it but for the life of me i cannot figure out why it keeps shutting off and i have...

what kind of computer do you have?

OK I FIXED THE PROBLEM!!!! for now... SO, i have the MSI GTX 750 TI which has "afterburner" technology built in so it overclocks the chip once it gets graphically intense. I downloaded the MSI Afterburner utility and "underclocked the chip and it works fine now... probably just uses a lot more...

Installed windows 8.1.. did all the drivers and everything and still crashed at same place.. from the GPU log it seems to happen about 10 seconds after the VDDC jumps up. Is there a way to prevent this? is this OverClocking?
