Hi. If someone is still following this thread I came back with the final report. Got my PC back last friday. Everything were fine eventually as the service guys just removed the damaged chip from the sys_fan 5. I moved all the parts in a new case (Phanteks P360 white) and run some tests since...

Yeah I know Seasonic PSU's got some protection that won't let you boot the system if they detect higher voltage than normal so I guess my PSU is fine. However I am worried about the motherboard. If I recall correctly the controller was connected to PSU via molex the first time when I used my...

Hi. So basically the same old problem, I don't even know how this mistake just slipped past me but I have plugged the floppy disk cable into one of the sys_fans port. I have a Gigabyte X470 mobo with a seasonic PSU. Got 3 custom fans installed on my pc and those 3 are connected to a controller...

A lot of people are praising this model and I am thinking of buying this one in the close future.

Hi. I am torn between two PSU for my gaming rig and I don't know which one to choose. My specs are: Mobo: Gigabyte x470 Aorus Ultra Gaming CPU: Ryzen 5 2600x Cooler: Master Hyper 212 EVO RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX Black 16GB DDR4 3000MHz CL16 Dual Channel Kit GPU: 1070 GTX HDD: Seagate Baracuda...

Hi. As the title say should I buy an used gpu? I'm planning to buy a GTX 1080 for my custom rig and I was wandering if an used gpu may be as good in performance as a new one. When I'm saying a used gpu I am talking about the ones that were used for light/hard gaming not the one used for mining...

I'm working with a Ryzen 5 2600x and GTX 1070. So I guess this spec won't concern me at all ?

Hi. I bought GIGABYTE X470 AORUS ULTRA GAMING motherboard and on the specification tab there is a line stating: "1 x HDMI port, supporting a maximum resolution of 4096x2160@60 Hz* ". This mean I can't play on 144Hz refresh rate on 4k resolution but will I be able to run Full HD resolution on 144 Hz?

I just bought the X470 AORUS ULTRA GAMING motherboard from GIGABYTE along with a new Samsung 860 EVO 250 GB SSD. The one thing that is troubling me is that on the mobo's qvl memory list the 860 EVO doesn't feature on it however on the specification tab on storage interface it says the board...

Hi. I want to build a gaming PC to swap my actual rig. Unfortunately I cannot use any components from my actual rig because all of them are pretty old and out of use. I was wandering if I can run 1440p+ gaming with this budget setup. I can't afford to go more than 850$+ because I also have to...
