Sorry this is such a beginner question. I’m doing my first build, making a test bench before putting it in the case. I have a Corsair h60 cooler and I’m wondering what gives it power? I know I need to plug in the radiator plus fan but does it pull power from the 24 pin, 8 pin cpu, or something...
Well... (I'm unsure wether this goes into the MOBO or PSU section, I guess both potentially).
I hoped I would never have to come back here again for that specific issues, but it has come back after a whole year, I had nearly forgotten about it.
It all started in June of last year, where I had a...
I'm thinking about getting a 750w Gold EVGA for a Ryzen 5 3600 and maybe an RTX 2070 Super or less. This build might one day upgrade to a Ryzen 7 3700, but I'm not sure yet.

Would I be safer looking for an 850w PSU somewhere?
I have an intel i7-8700K, EVGA 1080 ti, 16gb RAM, and for some reason I get constant frame drops in games such as Doom, I can't get over 40 fps in Minecraft, Modern Warfare, Fortnite, etc. Wifi is not the issue, I have used MSI afterburner to see what is going on and it says a ton of RAM is...
It all started when my old PSU died, I replaced it with a new EVGA 550 GD and it works fine without the GPU but when I plug the GPU my PC completely shuts off after 30 seconds or so. I tried booting Linux with a live CD and boots fine but as soon as I try to watch a video on youtube it shuts...
So I am going to build a new pc with a ryzen 7 3700x and a 1660 super. I will use the MSI gaming plus max motherboard. I am thinking about using 16 gb of T-Force Delta rgb memory. I have 2 questions, what rgb ram is there under 80 dollars if...
Last minute question, is there a big/good difference between the EVGA card mention above ($699) vs. the MSI one ($760). Is it worth that price difference? How big of a difference is the cooling and overclocking considering the MSI card has 2x8 PIN rather than EVGA's 6+8. Any opinions?
Rest of...
So my GTX 1080 died a while back and I decided to aim for a RTX 2080 Super as my next GPU. Here's my main issue: There's so many.
I was originally looking at the MSI TRIO X ($740) card but then saw comparisions and the cheaper, smaller, 1 less fan EVGA Super Black Dual Fan ($689.99@Microcenter)...
Ever since I built my computer about 1.5 years ago, I noticed that whenever I plugged in my power supply cord into the power supply, or even moved it a bit, I noticed some sort of crackling sound (I have no idea if this is a normal thing), but for a long time now (maybe about a year), sometimes...
Hello everyone. I am posting here since I've tried almost everything but I can't get my system to boot. I can't even see my BIOS. After I press the power button on my computer it just says ''No signal''. Also I have made sure that the basics are there such as power on and every cable is plugged...
Hi all,
hope all are safe and well.
I have a EVGA 650 BQ PSU and a Sapphire 5700XT graphics card. The PSU PCI-E cable is only 8-6 connector and the graphics card is 8-8.
I decided (maybe stupidly) to use the vga connector which has a separate 8pin connector so essentially the graphics card was...
Hi. Wich is the best assembler for the RTX 2060 Super?
I have only 3 options, all have the same price:
MSI RTX 2060 Super Gaming X
Evga RTX 2060 Super XC Ultra
Gigabyte RTX 2060 Super Gaming OC
Only for the temperatures, I think that the MSI GPU is the best option:
MSI RTX 2060 Super Gaming...
Back in December I bought a new RTX 2060 Super from EVGA. I installed it and it wouldn't boot. There was no output and the system would restart after 15-30 seconds, and just do this infinitely. Eventually I got it to work after reseating the GPU enough times
All was good for maybe a week? Then...
Hello, I want to build my first pc (gaming) but I don't have a high budget ( 400€ - 430€ germany). I've spend a lot of time searching and comparing pc pieces and I think I have found good ones. I'm not an expert (more a noob) so could you please look if my chooses are good. I do have a Pc part...
I'm looking for any motherboard that has sli. Preferably ATX but E-ATX is ok. I have the EVGA Pro SLI 2 Slot bridge and I'm trying SLI but I can't find one that has two pci slot spacing to support two gpus.
Yes, I know SLI isn't worth it but I'm experimenting.
No TR sockets or 2011 sockets...
I was playing games on my pc last night and everything was normal. Then I switched from Rust to CSGO and my primary monitor (plugged into my GPU) went black, while my secondary monitor (running of the motherboard) remained on. After copious troubleshooting, I deduced that my GPU (EVGA GTX...
I'm gonna buy a new gpu but i cant find any review of the models i have available in my country
Zotac 2070 super twin fan
Msi 2070 super vetus
Wich one should i buy?
Are they loud?
Should i consider the msi 5700xt mech oc or a 2060 super evga?
I thought it was Quadro rtx 4000 vs Geforce RTX 2080ti...
Buy now Im coming across lots of Geforce RTX 2080 ti card made by Gigabyte, Asus, Evga, Zotac, Palit, Nidea, PNY, Blower...
How do I tell one from the others, which ones or ones are better, which ones are more reliable or long laster...
So I have all the components for my PC -
MB] ASUS Rog Strix X570-E
CPU] Ryzen 7 3700X
RAM] 16GB G.Skill TridentZ DDR4 3600MHZ
PSU] EVGA SuperNOVA 550 G3
GPU] GTX 1060
According to PCPartPicker the PSU only has a 8 pin ATX, and the X570-E requires an 8 + 4.
Now I've read a few threads online...
This is just some information for people thinking about upgrading their Optiplex 9020 mt, or who are thinking about buying one for a budget gaming PC, and are looking for information on what will fit. Before I started, I swear I read every forum post on the internet and every Optiplex upgrade...
I've noticed for a week or two that something has been messing with my nose/head. I eventually realized it was my PC, and after troubleshooting the psu/cpu/gpu, I found it was my 970. Its heat sink smells hot, but it's hard to put a finger on the exact smell. It doesn't smell like plastic...
Hello, i'm almost certain of it, but i want to be sure. I have some upgrade plans and i want to be 100% sure if my current PSU will handle:
EVGA 550 B3 80+ Bronze
RX 5700 XT Pulse (Some casual daily OC, nothing extreme)
Intel Core i7-8700 (Waiting for Ryzen 4000, but just assume i will upgrade...
