    Question Am i losing my mind? 2 Are there supposed to be 2 fan cables for 3 fans on my RTX 3060

    I can see the 2 cables are connected to a little PCB, but i can't look further, so you appear to be correct in the daisychained thing. Seems like problem is solved then. Thanks along with other commenter who posted a video (i could not find a video despite lookin for the model, guess i need new...

    Question Am i losing my mind? 2 Are there supposed to be 2 fan cables for 3 fans on my RTX 3060

    I could have sworn i removed just these 2 fan cables from my Inno3D RTX 3060 iChill X3 when i disassembled it. However the thermal pads needed replacing so i currently have them ordered. I did reassemble the fan + shroud which was quite some work, 20 screws and 3 diffrent tools later (thanks...

    Question No signal from 3060. Is it broken?

    i wouldnt automaticly assume No signal on a new built is a defective GPU. Like DRagor said, it could be anything. it's an elimination process. double check cable connections of the psu, is the 24 pin inserted in it'entirety? make sure standoff screws are in the right location, inspect the cpu...

    Question Needing help with CPU cooling?

    Yes if you did not overclock the cpu then an arctic alpine 12 will cool your 7600k just fine. The 7600k is socket 1151 and that cooler is compatible. it has significantly better fanblades / bearings/paste/ more metal and can cool 20 to 30 degredes cooler than stock intel crap. and it can often...

    Question Needing help with CPU cooling?

    I find it interesting that one would link to a 90 DOLLAR cooler for an outdated 7600k / claim it requires high performance cooler. Totally unessecary mismatch , doesnt make any financial sense concidering its tdp and age. You can cool that thing fine and fairly quiet with a 12 dollar arctic...

    Question GPU usage drops in heavy loads / games ?

    the i5 7600 is very much an outdated cpu that would struggle on modern titles. im fairly sure the diffrence with 5th 6th and 7th gen was very minimal and lauhable. though the resale value still remains decent. i would look into upgrading to a i3 12100f or 12400f. but then ur entire system is...

    Question Hello! Should i choose the 11400f or I3-12100F. Im planning to build my pc and was wondering which one for gaming and coding/cybersecurity.

    depends on the price diffrence the msi has better vrms to deal with the high power draw of high end i9s but with an i3 or i5 of choice it wont matter the asus board will handle it just fine
