So my 6 year old Corsair VS450 died (Yeah I know its a cr@p PSU but I was 12 year old when I made that purchase). From the back exhaust vent I can see something with TNY177PN printed on it with a hole in it. Probably that's what failed (there was smell and audible bang when it happened, all...

Update - My friend is contemplating on getting a cheap secondary card like GT1030 so he can use it as an output for that 60hz panel. Will it solve the problem in such case?

I came to know that AMD removed their BIOS check from driver 17.4.3 and I think this is the perfect opportunity to flash my 470 to 570 (I have flashed my card previously multiple times for custom memory latency) and so I came looking for the RX570 GamingX 4gb BIOS but I couldn't find it in...

Hi, so back in 2013 I bought a Corsair VS450 (big mistake buying the VS series, I know). Anyway I used to run FX6300 + HD7770 on it and it worked fine without any problem, however for the past half year, the PSU's fan gets extremely loud when under load with same FX6300 + HD7770. I then upgraded...
