I don't get the new connectors anyway, you end up with a y splitter to plug in multiple rails. I would rather just plug them both into the card directly if that's what it takes, the tiny pins can't physically handle that much electrical draw at 12v. 600W/12V=50A Ampacity charts will say 50A...

Later on in the generation. I clean mine often, with compressed air and never need to remove it.

I wonder how many of these folks have tested their home power to make sure they have a strong ground at their receptacles? Mine had been painted and wasn't making much contact, which meant REALLY hot PC power cables!

Wonder what my BNIB still sealed AMD Duron from 2000 is gonna be worth one day?

That's an odd address for the DNS server. Try a couple things: ipconfig /flushdns ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew Then, if the issues continue try to set them back to static DNS using Google's public DNS: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 also, make sure there are no VPN setting configured in internet...

So this is a weird issue. My Comcast XB3 Xfinity router will intermittently reboot every 20 minutes or so, but only when my bedroom PC is connected to it. Whether there are 10 devices or just one, it's only this PC that causes this. I've turned it off and tried downloading a game and playing a...
