    I have just purchased a genuine cable which will arrive in a few days. Pc it totally set up and All drivers are Installed. How much of a risk would I be taking to use it for a few days as is ? Thanks

    Question Powering a 4070 Super 12-pin with 1 split PCIe cable ?

    I got it from my brother who misplaced the rest. It was barley used. I'm seeing to many people say that it works fine and has done for months with the daisy chain. I've installed it now just to test the gpu is working fine and will order another offical evga pcie. Thanks for the advice

    Question Powering a 4070 Super 12-pin with 1 split PCIe cable ?

    Can I just clarify that I only have 1 pcie cable with a daisy chain. So two 6+2 connectors from the one cable. Will it still work or do I need 2 separate pcie cables to the psu for it to work

    Question Powering a 4070 Super 12-pin with 1 split PCIe cable ?

    I've just built my system and am about to install the GPU. I have an Evga Supernova G5 750w gold PSU and a 4070 Super Windforce OC GPU. The PSU only has one PCIe cable but it has two 6+2 connectors on it. Will I be able to plug both into the 12-pin extension or will that lead to issues?

    Question Alternative to the phantom spirit

    Hi guys. Just about to order the last part for my new build. I was about to purchase the phantom spirit for my 7800x3d, but I've just checked my case specs and it lists the maximum cpu cooler height as 155mm and the cooler is of course 154mm. Are there any other coolers that will get the job...

    Question Will my current psu be sufficient

    After checking ... the 4070ti is around 65w higher than the super. Is that a factor ?. I'm just about to purchase the gpu and I see a few that are around the same price

    Question Will my current psu be sufficient

    Went down the dark path of buying used from fb marketplace but the guy was very respectable and seemed very well off. He said its had light used for around 2 years. It wouldn't cause any sort of spike or issues would it though ? .I've read either the cpu or gpu recommends at least 700w.
