    Question PSU's CPU wire just got melted due to neglect -- should I replace the entire PSU or Can I buy a 6 to 8-pin connector to connect the 6-pin wire from P

    Yeah, I am afraid of that too, that's why I didn't dare to switch on the PC (by pressing the ON button on the PC case) even though I could see the RGB glowing on the motherboard.

    Thanks. I am planning to remove the melted part by cutting it away and get the two cut ends soldered, to see if it works, if it does not I am going for a new one.

    It is indeed a cheap PSU, but as I said the PSU itself is functioning well has no problem, as it passed the Paper Clip test, and the RGB on the motherboard glows, the only fault is the CPU wires coming out of the PSU, also It was bought very recently on March 2022, that's why I am quite...

    Question PSU's CPU wire just got melted due to neglect -- should I replace the entire PSU or Can I buy a 6 to 8-pin connector to connect the 6-pin wire from P

    I think that's a better solution. Thanks. Can I cut and throw away the melted part of the CPU wire (coming from PSU) with the wire cutter and connect both cut ends by twisting the copper of the two cut ends with bare hands and insulate the twisted part with an insulation tape? Will it work?

    [SOLVED] Is it a good practice to use the Graphics Card only when required?

    The average temperature of the GPU when I browsing or watching videos would be around 35-39 degree. And majority of the time it is in this temperature, very rarely I play games. And I never overclock since I was afraid that it might damage the GPU, also I keep the game settings always to...

    [SOLVED] Is it a good practice to use the Graphics Card only when required?

    Will the life of the Graphics card last long, if we insert the GPU only when necessary while playing games, and when it is not needed, we can operate with the motherboard's display? In other words what I am suggesting is to keep the GPU unconnected to the Motherboard while doing normal usage of...
