    Power Supply issues with i7 3770 + GTX 1060 6GB

    First I would like to start by apologizing for taking so long to answer, however, the time difference between where we are is huge. I replied at 2:00am today and it showed me like it was 6:00pm of the previous day on the website (if I saw it right, I was kind of tired). Haha

    Power Supply issues with i7 3770 + GTX 1060 6GB

    I'm sorry, I forgot to mention. Since I had a fixed budget for this build I decided to spend everything on "horsepower" and don't care about aesthetics. So, because of that, I picked up an old (2000's, I believe) gaming Mid Tower for free. It's from a brand called GoldShip and I had never heard...

    Power Supply issues with i7 3770 + GTX 1060 6GB

    Wow! I can see you know "a thing or two" about fans. Hahaha And I do need some help on this matter. Just so you guys can understand, I just did this test: I opened Witcher 3, than changed the tab and opened AIDA64 to put a stress test on my CPU. After that, I went into Sensors on my phone and it...

    Do you have any idea if a Fan like this one would be a solution (High Static Pressure, as you mentioned): https://www.pichau.com.br/ventoinha-corsair-air-series-af120-120mm-led-azul-co-9050015-bled-box

    Power Supply issues with i7 3770 + GTX 1060 6GB

    Oh no, I know I can't OC my CPU, but the reason I was thinking about this WaterCooler is to quiet down my PC a little bit. It's got 4 Fans on it right now (Not including the one on the CPU Cooler and the two on my GPU). Also, it sits on top of my table and when a start gaming (or it's late at...

    That you so much Mark RM! I'll try that probably later today. I'll enjoy my PC working nicely for a while! Another question: I was talking to my uncle today and he told me he had a WaterCooler stored somewhere in his house that he is not using any more (He migrated to a Laptop because of work...

    Power Supply issues with i7 3770 + GTX 1060 6GB

    So I spent a good time last night doing more research and I found a guy on another forum that was having the same issue as me (I searched for the link but I wasn't able to find it in my browsing history). He figured out, however, that his problems were being caused by one of his two memory...

    Power Supply issues with i7 3770 + GTX 1060 6GB

    I appreciate all the Help. I haven't updated the BIOS yet because I've never done it before and I heard there is a chance you can brick your motherboard. I'll try first to uninstall my GPU drivers with this DDU you guys mentioned and then reinstall everything. The HDD I'm using right now is the...

    Power Supply issues with i7 3770 + GTX 1060 6GB

    Hey guys, thank you for your attention. So, I've decided that I wanted to build a gaming PC. Since I'm on Senior year of Aeronautical Engineering (BTW, I live in Brazil) and I'm not sure of what is going to happen in the future, I decided that I wanted to build a PC with a graphics card that...

    Xeon E3 1270v1 or E3 1240v2 + GTX 1060 Bottleneck

    So you think a standard cooler from a 3rd generation core i5 could keep that xeon cool? I've got one of those (the one with a copper circle on the middle). If so, I'd be saving 90 bucks already. Haha. The ram thing I'm going to handle in the future. About the MB, thought, to get one with a z77...

    Xeon E3 1270v1 or E3 1240v2 + GTX 1060 Bottleneck

    As I said, I live in Brazil, so prices are a little bit different. The 1270v1 is actually cheaper than de 1240v2 here. I have a R$700-800 budget for the gpu and on that price range I can choose a 4GB rx 470(720) or a 3GB GTX 1060(750) (the 6GB version is 950+), and performance wise the gtx1060...

    Xeon E3 1270v1 or E3 1240v2 + GTX 1060 Bottleneck

    Hey guys, I'm new here, so I'm sorry if I posted something in the wrong place. Anyway, I'm building a budget gaming PC and I decided I'm going to use a GTX 1060 3GB, because I'll be playing in 1080p and I think that card is more than enought for it. However, I've got some doubts about the...
