Its a zotac gtx 970. Maybe if someone else has this card, could you describe it like this? Is this a...

    I have finished installing my zotac gtx 970. It is using a corsair cx 750w bronze psu, connected with 2 6 pins. Playing arma 3, it got quite bad an almost sounding like a high pitch beep, rather than the buzzing. Any higher, and it would have been the real whining. Even at this loud, I can...

    is a carpet floor with a wooden desk bad for gpu installation?

    When I'm upgrading my gpu, is it okay to install it with the pc on top of a wooden desk but with a carpet floor? Is there something I can place (cardboard?) Underneath me as I install it? Thanks.
