Dangerous still. This is a VERY bad idea.

EPS has another 12V line that maps to ground for PCIe. So if you try to plug in a EPS line into a PCIe plug, you'll kill the card.

Sup fellas, Quick question, I am currently using a 3060ti and a i9 10850k. I came across a good deal for a 3070ti and I think I want to get it. My question is if a 650Watt power supply will be able to handle the power draw, everything is currently stock. I do plan to upgrade the PSU to 1000 Watt down the road. That's it, thanks.

OP said he will be using the system for virtualization as well. I recommend more than 6 cores for that occasion. It's upon him to choose what raid array to use, i recommend raid 1 as well but nas drives aren't cheap. i3 and Celeron ain't gonna make the audition, maybe an i5.

The only real way to get rid of heat is a portable air conditioner, or putting it in a big room or basement.

The issue with caching is that you have basically no control over what gets stored on the SSD cache. I decided to choose two SSD's in this instance. The first one can be used for the OS, and the second one for caching. Instead of 16GB of ram, I put in 32GB, but you have room too add 64GB if you wanted. I picked 2x 4TB Hard Drives which you could Raid 0, or if you want you can either spend a little more money and do 2x 8TB drives in Raid 1 so you have redundancy. Or you can do 1 8TB Hard drive if you're just downloading movies then I wouldn't worry too much. Also 10700F will probably be enough for you're needs, if you feel you need the extra horsepower, I would go for either a 10900F, or a 10700KF. If you chose the 10700KF You need at least a Noctua D15 or a AIO Cooler. For the record, the F in the processor means no dedicated graphics. Which means you would have to use you're 750Ti.

RAID mode is built for having multiple drives in a array, for example Raid 0 pairs two drives together and adds the storage on top of each other. Raid 1 parity's the drives, basically the files you save on one drive, duplicates to the other. You shouldn't have issue running in RAID, sometimes the UEFI firmwares are somewhat buggy and will cause windows not to recognize it. I would probably just keep it as is.

You will be able to install it no matter what. You can install it with DISM even if you're system is not compatible. You should return that TPM chip too incase you don't need it down the road.

yeah but whats the question?

Would be cool but there is too many companies on the market for that.

What model is the laptop?

The hardware will last for 4-5 years except that 1050 ti. Recommend upgrading in a year or two.
