power draw

Hi everyone, i've been wondering how much a UPS Power Draw on startup. Let's say i got 2000VA/1200W UPS and a PC with a 760w PSU. When I start the UPS with PC plugged in, will it draw 1200w or 760w? Thanks in advance!

I've been noticing that my pc shuts off while trying to play more intensive games (DRG, TWW), and the event viewer gives me a 6008 code. I've already replaced my old 600w power supply with a new one, but the computer still shuts off during testing. Is it my build? Is 600w enough, or do I need...

Hi, Got PC built from new components, and ~50% of the times I start it it has a weird behavior of being quiter than should be, and performing worse than it should, at lower power draw. It doesn't seem to affect CPU although I could be wrong. The hallmark of it is GPU being at fine working...

Hi everyone! I have an issue with youtube playback, and generally browser based video playback. I have a 4k LG monitor and a 4080 Zotac oc GPU, just recently upgraded. The issue is when i watch a youtube video 1080p, 1440p at 1/4 screen the gpu power draw is around 16w. But if i watch the same...

I’m completely stumped with my new power supply, it’s the be quiet dark power 12 850w titanium and I can’t figure out the power cables. I’m guessing the mother board is the 20+8 pin that goes to a 24 as that’s the same as old power supply. However I can’t figure out the cpu, on my old power...

Hey everyone, Yesterday I helped a friend pick out parts for a new build at Micro Center. We found some insane deals, notably a PowerColor RX 6900 XT Red Devil for $650 open box. Obviously I had them spring for that card; that is just insane. However, they were on a set budget, and in order to...

Hello Lately I have this issue in Red dead redemption 2 where I get sudden FPS drop from 80 - 100 FPS to 4 FPS. Normally the GPU is using 220-230 watts of power, but before the lag happens I noticed that my GPU hits around 7.4 GB of Vram allocation and 6.2-ish GB of actual Vram used by the game...

Hi all, Trying to decipher a strange problem..... Only thing I can think of is power, but even then, it doesn't make too much sense in my head. Picked up a Chromecast with GoogleTV. Getting 250up/down via Wifi, but I have Gigabit internet, so wanted a wired connection here. Looked at a few...

Hey, guys. I have a GA-AX370-Gaming 5 and had seen months ago that it's supposed to support the 3950X with a BIOS update. Yesterday I finally got the CPU, and when I installed it after updating the BIOS, the computer failed to POST. I've already sent a support request to Gigabyte, so that's not...

I have PBO enabled on my mobo and in Ryzen Master, and I have a fairly beefy 6 heat pipe 2 fan cooler on my CPU. I use CPUID HWMonitor to pull all of my stats on my second monitor while running Cinebench on the primary display. When I run Cinebench R20, the CPU package pulls 120 Watts at around...

So I have Masterbox TD500, yes there are better cases, but i have what I have. It has 3 fans running on molex (as the cables were a tad short to reach the headers on their own), I found a 3 way splitter in my things, it would allow me to get a fan curve to let the computer run a little quieter...

I have them on the opposite side of where my tv is, but I should move them to near my tv?

Hello, I have Windows 10 Pro and I was wondering if I could create a favorites menu like the "Most used" section marked on the image below. I would like to have Google Chrome, Steam, Task Manager and a few others kinda pinned to the top of the App list. I don't just want to get rid of the...

Hello all. Having trouble finding a reasonably priced SSD M.2 drive. Already made the mistake of buying a PCIe version rather than a SATA. (samsung 960 evo) The drive is for the ASRock H110 Pro BTC+ Motherboard http://www.asrock.com/MB/Intel/H110%20Pro%20BTC+/index.asp#Specification Drive...

So How much feet is for the displayport cable to plug in to my graphics card?
