  1. Yes they are soft. That's typical for cheap padding foam. The issue is that they offer no correct back support of any kind and you end up with back problem due to it.
  2. Yeah plenty people do. It's just luck at work. There are MANY people that got their system killed by these psu's failing to act correctly. They have been made defective and when a situation happens where they need to use their fail saves they simply can't.
  3. Yeah those are really poor. Know to cause harm to hardware. They have no functional protections against overcurrent or voltages going out of spec. It is there just doesn't work and only causes more problems.
  4. They are a better option yes
  5. https://cablemod.com/adapterrecall/ They had to recall 2 versions due to melting and fire. There is no good 90 degree adapter that hasn't had many report about failure. So op for safety reasons I simply cannot recommend one except some nice individually sleeved cable that allows for a decent bend.
  6. 70c in bios aka not doing anything. That is NOT normal Op try checking if everything is plugged in properly and that both the PUMP AND FANS are in.
  7. The z230 uses a proprietary motherboard psu connector so you need an adapter for it. It's so you couldn't easily replace stuff without paying hp tax. People made these adapters as these became VERY popular office pc to gaming pc rebuilts. The motherboards still use the regular atx spec for power they just don't use the full 24 pin but a select few pins from the connector.
  8. What psu? Very important you get something decent. Make sure it's a 6gb not a 3gb the 3gb ones are just terrible cards these days.
  9. I mean regardless a 1060 class card + adapter + non explody psu is still about 150$ or you spend 25$ more for well way better everything. Then just sell the 3040mt again
  10. It's basically the same thing. A igpu is just another gpu really.
  11. Just don't use it? The reason these are on there is because they wouldn't sell if they wouldn't have the ports.
  12. Freshest air is the best really. You'll have airflow regardless. Just get what you like
  13. You'll need this to use a normal psu https://www.ebay.com/itm/395250816192?itmmeta=01HS9ND5TH75BJGSEQDHFDM1G5&hash=item5c06c8d4c0:g:8jAAAOSwdUVl6LDZ&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA4CFC1eTtP2mPw4I7yzTEmjQ1fGsAd9khsP08MnKqypJBUn640FnT8oNwcdxbrVlbnwrENtwnVxpUYaxMHB9YKFOAA4%2FJ78XDENeBIgCIeFp8Cza5FiMRq6HlGGpOMBSLcA%2FT5r27%2FZNm4nWsxnUOV0c6rmWPKCBM1Gna1m3Ad9paOIvKRpfg4fZhJ%2BGGkYo7dVYM5YMakBilVKPUYbS44kNjQj4UY3UgV%2FQpHx5GN7Gu1FZr5yOXK3IZrAa7MkxCP7GrLZNhUYFk9FQxmKtJZaXY4Itb5GJvXw1fsrTPoovb|tkp%3ABFBMut20tcpj https://pcpartpicker.com/product/mnVmP6/msi-mag-a550bn-550-w-80-bronze-certified-atx-power-supply-mag-a550bn Cheap but alright
  14. Please stop using this now. That psu already tried to catch on fire once. This is actually a firebomb. Stop using the pc and do not use till you can get a new psu. Unplug from power and DO NOT use it again. This is a GENUINE HIGH FIRE RISK. Psu's in this state do not tend to go quietly it's literally making soft sparking noises. This is BAD.
  15. As long as you are happy with it thats good. I would have definitly done something different and taken the system you had to a computer shop and asked them to simply put in a better gpu and a 5700x3d. Would have basically been the same performance with only a 4070 super in there but you could have potentially even put a 4090 in there for the heck of it :p. Or kept the 5900x it's no slouch. If you could return it and it is feasable for you to have someone upgrade the pc for you either at home or at a shop I'd go for that as it's a far better value option. If not keep it as is. Was there an issue with the old one? For 1080p it should have been easily maxing out almost every game without a sweat.
