    Hard power off with 3090 under load

    I've seen a couple of Corsair ones that do that, but I don't think this Bitfenix one does. I'll double check all the connections and everything inside, but for the most part everything works fine, even under a reasonably heavy load. The problems only really happen if I use VR or anything else...

    Hard power off with 3090 under load

    Good to know, thanks guys. Given that the GPU-Z data shows the card pulling 70A+ of power on each 8 pin connector (currently set up on a rail each), would an 80-100A single rail PSU be sufficient? Or do I need to be looking for something that can supply two 80-100A rails?

    Hard power off with 3090 under load

    That's what I was thinking, but surely a 750W PSU would be even worse? It's all brand new. There's a Ryzen 5800, two NVME Drives and a WiFi card Two separate cables. Does the same if I have them on the same rail, or two separate rails too. I'm inclined to agree with you all that the PSU is...

    Hard power off with 3090 under load

    Not sure if this should go here or in Power Supplies Picked up a Inno3D GeForce RTX 3090 iChill X3 a couple of weeks ago as part of a new build, but whenever I put it under a heavy load - especially in VR - the whole PC powers off suddenly. I've got an 850W power supply (Bitfenix Whisper M)...

    Will this spec work?

    It goes slowly - still hasn't shipped yet The price isn't far off, but the Inno3D card was in stock when I ordered

    Will this spec work?

    You're right. I've upgraded it for a 4k 144Hz one. Swapped the Samsung SSD for a similarly priced WD NVME. I thought there was only one slot on the board haha. Thanks guys, I've hit buy now. Can't wait until it arrives!

    Will this spec work?

    I did! I think a 3080 would be ideal, but it looks like it's going to be a few months before I can realistically get my hands on one unless I go to a scalper. If I'm paying that much, I might as well get the better card while it's in stock The index and the Vive are definitely better headsets...

    Will this spec work?

    Good point - I've swapped it out for the 32GB Patriot kit - It's a no brainer for a small amount more. Looking at better timings, it's an extra £70-£150 for C17 or C16 kits for performance I'm probably not going to notice outside. Probably not worth it to me. It's an expensive build, but half of...

    Will this spec work?

    I probably have some paste in the house tbf, but better safe than sorry if it turns out to not be very good You're right, the 3600Mhz version is a tenner cheaper. The processor page recommends 3200-3600Mhz. The only cheaper 3600MHz kits are Team Group or Patriot, are they any good?

    Will this spec work?

    It's been a few years since I last built a PC and my current build is really showing it's age now. I want to build something that'll last me (I've had my current build for 6-7 years) and I don't want to wait months for 3080s to come back in stock, so I don't mind forking out for the 3090 so...

    How's my spec?

    Cheers guys, I'll probably hold fire on ordering until the new graphics cards come out if they're just around the corner. I've left the 2080 in as a placeholder, assuming the new cards will be roughly the same price or a little more. Given that there's a little wiggle room in the budget, is...

    How's my spec?

    My trusty old 4770K and GTX 780 has started showing it's age and i'v been looking at putting together a new build and re-purposing my old one as a HTPC (but that's a project for another day) I've thrown together a spec with playing simulation games and media consumption in mind, but it's been a...

    Burton's teacakes have Jam in the middle, but the marshmallow is much more solid than the Tunnocks ones

    Can only upgrade memory on an old system...

    It's worth noting you'll need a 64 bit operating system before it will be able to access the additional RAM

    ** NZXT H440 - SUPER SLEEK GAMING CHASSIS WITH EPIC WC POTENTIAL **

    Nothing at all? :S Don't fancy waiting two months for my whole order to be fulfilled - half the parts will be obsolete by then :p

    ** NZXT H440 - SUPER SLEEK GAMING CHASSIS WITH EPIC WC POTENTIAL **

    Don't see why not, but it'll probably have a different finish to the rest of the case
