I used half of my PSU's 24-pin connector to connect the PSU to my Acer motherboard's 12 pins. (Yes, it fit without forcing.) When it didn't start, I thought maybe I should get a 24 to 12 pin adapter. Now that I'm using the adapter, it still won't start. Could I have fried the motherboard by...

I've recently bought a 6700 XT red devil. Every graphics card I've ever had I plugged the PCIE connectors in one way (with the notch up), but on this card the only way they fit is upside down (with the notch down). Is it okay for it to be plugged in like this? I'll be showing pictures for more...

Well. I recently blew my PSU (zalman zm500-lx) by overclocking my GPU (ASUS R7 260x OC) in radeon settings for a specific game to gain some extra lows fps. And I wonder if the slight overclock (from 1075mhz core to 1140mhz & 1250mhz to 1480mhz vram) without raising voltage or tweaking power...

I'm trying to install this drive to a Drobo 810N (NAS). The SATA connector is different from usual, and has a piece of plastic between the power & data sections, so it can't plug in to any SATA cables I have, which require a gap. What gives? Is this a new interface, and what can I do to use...
