So I came across a post on PC Master race reddit that worried me a bit. Someone was talking about how many pcie or vga cables should be connected to the power supply to the gpu. Right now mine is connected with just one 6+2 vga cable, so I'm wondering if it's safe and if that's how it should be, or do I need 2 vga cables and if so, how do I do that? Do I use one with 6 and other cable with 2 connector? I have a rtx 4070 BTW its msi

Red? L S T E R

Wow... I feel so dumb bruuh

lol honestly idk I thought maybe it will provide better cooling

Wait a minute whaaat, sorry I don't understand. Do I need to remove my heatsink from the m.2? I paid extra for it lol

And i don't think that's the case because there isn't something you can clip down on the ruber thing around the spacer, its just the long m.2 screw that was holding the original shield in place that I removed in order to install the m.2

This is Asus rog strix b650-a

This is the defualt screw that came pre installed on the mobo, and no other screw came with the m.2 or the mobo

Well for some reason the m.2 with heatsink won't go in all the way, I think my m.2 screw is too short or the threads are too short .. is it okay like this? 20231208_185158_compressed.mp4

There are 3 places to install m.2

Where is the best place to install the PCIe 4.0 NVMe m.2 on the motherboard? I have the Kingston Fury Renagade 2tb m.2 and the Asus ROG Strix B650-A motherboard

Hmm I see, but for when you are downloading large files or moving over files from folder to another than the difference from lower reading/writing speeds to higher would be quite noticeable no? I also think that windows will load faster too by a few seconds and you will load into games faster too, like when you are connecting to a csgo match for example or any other game, that is if it is installed on your m.2 ssd

I'm not sure but maybe your ram got damamaged during the frying of the psu, and as far as I know a PC won't start without any working ram installed. It could be worth to check if you can find any extra ram just to see if that's the issue or not so you can move on with the troubleshooting.

Did you by any chance tweak some settings of ur CPU or overclock it? Maybe its s unstable overclock
