    EVGA PSU cabling for an MSI RX6800

    Thanks again for the help, I'm too old to feel giddy about a new toy but this rig will seem like a revolution from what I have been using.

    EVGA PSU cabling for an MSI RX6800

    "3 means you have a fancy model." Blush :) Thanks for that, I think that gives me the courage I need to light her up with 3 discrete cables 'cuz why not I have them.

    Old timers thread. How long have you been in the game?

    Pffp, Doom! But do you have Zyll and Zork! Though I do have to concede I don't know Blake Stone

    EVGA PSU cabling for an MSI RX6800

    I posted this on Power Supplies then realized it might be more appropriate on Vids: "So I am putting my current rig together with some previously bought parts and I have an evga G3 PSU 1000w (see link) and an RX6800 from MSI. This system will be a generational upgrade for me as I haven't had a...

    MSI X870E-P Pro WIFI

    Sorry to kind of Necro this thread, but did the OP figure out which slots rob from the GPU. There are 3 slots, I'm only putting MS drives in slot 1 and slot 2. The first one runs through the CPU, the other two run through the chipset? The PCI_E1 slot that I am using for the GPU is 5.0x16 the...

    RX 6800 radeon and the EVGA G# 1000w PSU- Answered

    So I am putting my current rig together with some previously bought parts and I have an evga G3 PSU 1000w (see link) and an RX6800 from MSI. This system will be a generational upgrade for me as I haven't had a GPU that has ever needed more than x2 8 pin connectors before. The RX6800 has 3...

    Need a new OS for my new build

    Yeah this whole rig was built to play games but also to crunch work data, but I would make many sacrifices to keep it's primary function intact. So if running the mass grave route do I just DL a Win11 pro and put it on a usb then install normally, remove all the windows crap them follow the...

    Need a new OS for my new build

    I am planning for Win11 Pro as I've heard what a mess Home can be for negating bloat. I would love to skip the paying for this bloated cow, so the plan was to get it all installed and watermarked up then stumble around the mass grave process. Any tips or advice on which win11 version I should...

    Microcenter 9850X3D + mobo + 32GB DDR5 for $750

    Thanks for the nudge peeps, I may just grab the MSI for the extra 50. This is quite a few generations of upgrade from what I am using now, though I buy well so stuff tends to last a while which is a philosophy for me. -B

    Microcenter 9850X3D + mobo + 32GB DDR5 for $750

    Ok, I'm admittedly being lazy to ask and not research myself but I have avoided my long put off computer upgrade until now. Would the this Mobo, and Ram be worth the upgrade? I have to get over the up charge I'm going to pay for RAM but that doesn't seem to be getting better for at least a few...
