I have a GTX 1060 and I recently opened up my prebuilt computer to fix some of the terrible cable management they did. As I was removing my graphics card the little clip on the PCIe slot to hold the card it broke off. Now when I plug in the graphics card and power on, the monitor does not come...

PC Specs I7-3770 (non k) GTX 970 8GB DDR3 1600mhz ASUS P861 LX3 PLUS R2.0 Hello there! I've been thinking recently about buying an Oculus CV1 through eBay (Oculus sadly doesn't ship to Greece) because I think it will be a reasonably good first experience. I've searched a lot of forums already...

I'm upgrading the GPU in my HP Pavillion h8-1170uk (sorry). I bought the GTX 1660 only to find out my mobo isn't compatible thanks to the lack of UEFI Bios. With this in mind, I'm trying to find a non-UEFI compatible card that will run on a 460w PSU. I'm also wanting 4GB of GDDR5 for some of...

Hi, I need to install my wireless card into a PCIe x1 slot, but my fatty GPU (which can not be moved from the only PCIe x16 slot), blocks both my PCIe x1 slots. I think i have two options: 1) buy a PCIe x1 riser for the wireless card Q1: will the riser effect the wireless card performance...

Hello! I'm helping a friend of mine work through a (remarkably unorthodox) multi-GPU setup for his system. In short, we're trying to pair an Nvidia GTX 1050ti and a Quadra FX580 on the same Windows 10 system. His motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-A320M-S2H. The 1050ti is installed in the PCiE x16...

Heyo! So I just installed this usb controller on my mobo (it sadly only fits in this slot, not the lower one). And I was wondering if this controller blocks my right GPU fan? Thanks in advance! GPU: RTX 2060 SUPER

Okay, so I know this topic has been debated already. But please hear me out. I'm currently building a gaming rig out of a Workstation. It has a Dell 320W power supply. But doesn't have pcie power out. Even though people recommend against using molex/sata to pcie connectors.. I just want to...

Hello :) Right now I have my M.2 SSD from ADATA in my M2_2 (the lowest one on my mobo) but I want to move it to M2_1 slot (the top one) because I need a USB type c PCIE controller in my PCI_E6 slot, therefore I cant have a SSD in the M2_2 slot. My Mobo manual (MSI x470 gaming plus max) says...

I scratched my motherboard a good bit when trying to unlock my graphics card from my PCIe slot, and I was wondering if this is severe or not. I've booted with another test card, as the one I was taking out was fried due to a coke accident, and from what I could tell the card was not displaying...

I upgraded my system from an fx8350 CPU paired with an MSI 970 Gaming mobo to a Ryzen 5 3600 and ASRock B450 Steel Legend. This has caused my "staggered" gpu set-up (1050ti & Gt730) to throw a fit, with the 1050ti being the sole graphics provider. I use the 1050ti for the gaming / main monitor...
