    Question Installing old ssd with drivers on it

    I’m about to install a m.2 as a 2nd storage drive. My question is, the drive was an old boot drive which contains old gpu drives and windows, do I have to worry about the old drives getting installed? Or is it as simple as installing it to my mobo, boot the pc and wipe it in disk management?

    Question 850rmx, 13700k and 4080 non OC.

    Will Corsair 850w rmx be enough for a 13700k and 4080 non oc? No plans for overclocking. Ev. undervolting. Asking because I’m only missing the gpu and I don’t want to swap the PSU, if I don’t have to.

    Question Cinebench acting weird with i7-13700k temps ?

    I agree, I got the air cooled solution because I prefer it and in most casses I won't use CPU heavy tasks. The PC is mostly for gaming. I just happen to use Cinebench to check how stable the system(CPU) is with my new tweaks in BIOS and do not understand why my CPU reaches high temps for...

    Question Cinebench acting weird with i7-13700k temps ?

    Hello I built myself a PC a few days ago and after installing Windows and all the drivers I played some games to see the performance(WoW, 1440p and max settings). After that I decided to undervolt my CPU to get some lower temps. I went in to the BIOS(ASUS ROG Strix Z790-F Gaming WIFI ) and did...
