Heya, so I’ve got another question. I’ve estimated my future PCs maximum watt usage to be 909 (used PC part picker then multiplied it by 1.5) and with a monitor, mouse and keyboard to be around 940 at most. My question is that if I have a 1000W PSU and UPS will that be enough? Do I need to worry...

Are there any PSUs which also have USB C power delivery? It seems a sensible place to put it. Or maybe a pass-through from the motherboard to the front panel connector, adding power delivery?

Hi all, I have just bought a new case and GPU and realised that my old PSU isn't powerful enough for it. What I already have: CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600 Motherboard: MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI M-ATX RAM: Corsair VENGEANCE LPX 2x8GB DDR4 3200MHz What I just bought: GPU: ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 3060 Ti...

Hi, Trying to help out child of a friend. They know little about PC's and although I know more I'm out of my comfort zone on this one. In the autumn they bought an Intel i7 PC in a small form factor. But for Christmas the boy was given a GTX 4060 without anyone having much confidence in...

Hi all. I am looking to buy a new PC, and was torn between going for a top end build (4090 + 14900K) which is very expensive, or a lower tier build (4070Ti + 13th gen i7 or i9). I will be going in for a 32" screen. At the moment, I've only played games at 1080p, so I don't what difference I will...

I know this topic has been probably talked to death. However, I don't think there's a definitive answer. So my question is, out of the three options below, which one is the best next step for me? 1. Replace the PSU with a different one 2. Buy a mains conditioner like this one assuming wiring in...

A mate has just purchased a Coolermaster RP-550-PCAA-E2 PSU second hand. He doesn't need to power anything with a large power draw but is going to power a modest GPU and an i7-8700. I can tell from the label that it's not very good but is it actually dangerous? The label made me recoil: A...

Hey everyone, As per the title, I was wondering if it would be a good idea to begin thinking about replacing my PSU. I haven't had any problems and has been a rock solid PSU for the entire time I've had it, But I did read somewhere that it is recommended to replace a psu every five to six...

I've just built a new system & installed windows. Pc runs fine but as soon as i install the nvidia graphics driver it will keep crashing. Black screen appears. And then windows cant repair the system. I have to reboot a few time and then the driver seems to uninstall by itself as the screen goes...

I need a new PSU as old one might be struggling. I was looking at the Seasonic range as that's what I had before and I would guess the cables are therefore compatible plus it just seemed a good PSU. But they seem to be significantly more expensive. Example, there's a 1000W Titanium BeQuiet for...

Hi Is anyone able to help me before I spend too much money trying to fix this PC? PC has been working fine but have spent some time away from it as I purchased a laptop for university work. The issue I have has been listed below. Plug the PC into the wall using the power cable Heat sink LED...

They Shifted the Modular Panel! The new Corsair RMx Shift series brings innovation a side-positioned DC connector panel. According to the brand’s claims, this provides a tremendous boost to cable management since users have an easier access to the modular panel. Moreover, all Shift models are...

Hello! Let me start off first by saying I’m in no way a computer person and infact this is my first “expensive” pc as before all the ones I had were cheap small ones from currys so I’ve very little idea about what parts are good and so on. Because of this I bought a prebuilt PC in hopes of...

Hi Guys, As the tile states I have noticed a buzzing from the above PSU when PC is off, I did of course google the issue and found out that some had the same issue (mostly with Corsair, which makes me wonder...) and resolved it by disabling the (pretty useless in most cases) ErP Mode (s4+s5)...

Hi, Wonder if anyone else encountered a similar problem and can speed up my troubleshooting please. I've got an older PC (~10y old) with custom WC setup so a bit harder to strip down. I had a replacement PSU from Corsair under warranty back in 2016 and since then the PC had had very occasional...

Hi all, with all the potential electric disturbances this coming winter I am going to buy a UPS to protect my PC. The PC and monitor uses about 230w alone plus I need to plug my speakers and scanner into the UPS, also the PSU in my PC is 550w but Im not sure that makes a difference anyway. So...
