So I recently got a great deal on a prebuilt which I then gutted, changed a few components and then built my own PC using the parts. One of the things that I didn't change was the PSU, but after speaking to some people on the sub they said that a PSU upgrade was needed. So, I currently have a...
Hi all,
I have an old AMD AM3 based system with M5A97 R2.0 motherboard and what was an OCZ 600W PSU.
The machine was originally built by me in 2012 and has never had a problem until today.
Due to money being tight I have been slowly upgrading components rather than build a new machine.
First...
Hello!
I am from Algeria and I wanted to adress this product that I found when I was trying to buy a power supply for my system because it has a garbage psu that is not even rated.
The attached image shows the package, and weirdly enough all the stats here are the same ones written in the Kolink...
My hardware: Intel Core I5-4690, GPU: Current GTX 1660 (replaced Geforce 970), 8GB RAM, 2TB HDD Secondary, 250GB SSD, 600W Cooler Master PSU. Motherboard: Gigabyte Z97P-D3, OS, Wind 8.1 Pro
My problem:
Whenever I load up a game the screen goes blank and, and at the same time the GPU fans spin...
Okay so im buying a custom PC from Overclockers Uk. (before anyone says build myself, dont fancy it with screaming kids running around xD)
The PSU they use in a lot of them and that theyve selected for mine is a Kolink Classic Power 600W 80 Plus Bronze Power Supply. Never heard of them before...
My computer has started to automatically start then before posting/beebing it shuts down then it tries to restart and the whole process gets repeated.
If I manually touch/move the the cable socket when plugged in it attempts to start the computer. I have checked the power cable and that is ok...
Im looking at sticking a second psu in my system instead of buying another really expensive one I currently have a 700w thermaltake psu and im looking at getting a 500w corsair one to power my duel Vega 56 setup (I render games so I need the horse power ). What would be the best jumper. I have...
Hi,
Bit of a weird problem here. My brother's had his PC for two years now. Since about six months into owning the PC, he's had problems with the boot sequence.
It's usually fine, but every so often, it'll get caught in a boot loop where the fans spin, but there's no MoBo lighting or no...
Hi All,
So this is my first build which worked fine for a day but then i decided to open the case back up to cable manage it.
Stupidly one of the CPU connectors wasnt plugged in all the way but it still booted fine and i didnt notice any issues.
When i went to turn the PC on the next day the PC...
This thread about a PSU GPU power cable failing got me thinking. PSUs don't typically detail the current that each cable can take. Do reviews of PSUs test the cables going from the PSU to the individual components? I've seen plenty of reviews that test the overall capacity, ripple, and whatnot...
Hey all, hope everyone's well, just after a bit of advice...
Turned my PC off as usual the other night then the following day, attempted to turn it on but nothing. The Mobo was lit up and connected USB (light strip on the back of the desk). Literally took everything apart and upon sliding the...
hi
really hope someone can give me a clear answer on this one. Am using a second-hand Corsair 750w psu (TM) for almost a year now and all is good but wanted another pcie power cable as it only came with one and heard to use two cables from psu if gpu had two 8 pin connectors required. I have...
I bought two used EVGA GQ PSU that doesn't come with any modular cables, does any one know the pinout for this series? I have checked on OCN PSU pinout repository already (nothing), tried Googling, and EVGA website states the GQ series cannot use any of their custom cable sets.
I do have minor...
ok guys so i need your opinion on something
i bought a EK D5 pump second hand and the person who i bought it off re crimped the cable so it goes directly into the peripherals port on the PSU instead of via molex (pictured below)

Gpu 1: Gigabyte rx 5700 xt
Gpu 2: Msi Armored rx 570 oc
Cpu: Ryzen 7 3700x
PSU: Seasonic core gold GM 650
I want to gain two hdmi slots for a new monitor and encode with the rx 570 while playing games at the rx 5700 xt. Does the PSU handle both of the cards?
Hi folks, I've got a bit of a bizarre problem.
I've just built a new system but retained the PSU, SSDs and screen from my old build.
The system works perfectly albeit for a high-pitched buzz (not dissimilar to coil whine; sounds like crickets in the night) coming from the PSU and the monitor's...
Hi there,
I currently have a Corsair Spec Delta case for my pc. However, I have got a 1000W PSU from Corsair as well which is rather big thus leading me to have to take out my HDD slots. I have found this case...
So i am planning to build my own new gaming pc but i am not sure if a 700w PSU is enough to run a ryzen 7 with an rx 5700 xt. Does someone now that? I heard that the Seasonic core gold GM should do the work but i am not quite sure.
My full specs:
Ryzen 7 2700x
Gigabite rx 5700 xt
Msi B450...
Hi all. My PSU got broken and I need a new one.
I want a reliable, gold performance but open to bronze if reliable, with good warranty time.
In terms of wattage above 650W to have some margin for any eventual upgrade in the future.
Looking forward to hearing from you guys. Ta
