Hey guys, I'm broke and so is my computer. I need to build a new one and want to cut corners to get the best hardware I can on my limited budget. Should I reuse my 7-year-old Antec Gold 750W Power Supply? I am guessing my build would maximum be 500W. As far as I can tell, the power supply has...

System Specs: Core i5 3470, intel dz77sl-50k motherboard, corsair Vengeance 8gb ram. The power supply trips after powering on for just a few seconds when connected to the motherboard. It runs fine on the paper clip test though. The motherboard does not seem to have any problem as it runs fine on...

Hi all, I love the look of the Antec Prizm fans. But it means that i'll probably need a liquid cpu cooler that goes well with it. Is there a good cooler that goes well with the Prizms for an I9-9900k? Antec Prizm: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/161trKFRaZg/maxresdefault.jpg If not, will changing the...

I have a system that I bought a Sapphire Vega 56 for. The card has two 8-pin power connectors, and I realized too late that the power supply (Antec TruePower 550w) only has a 6+2- and a 6-pin connector. Is there any way to still use the power supply to power the graphics card? Are Molex to...
