hey, so im doing my first build ever. MOBO asus x99-e has multiple power plugs for the cpu, and im not sure if im supposed to plug in the bigger, one or the smaller one, or both. one is an 8pin, and one is a 4 pin. also, i just realized my corsair rm750x psu only came with one cable labeled cpu which is an 8 pin that splits in two so it could fit in the 4 pin. im thinking perhaps the 8 pin and 4 pin are different versions of the cable for supplying the cpu? or is the 4 pin for adding more power to allow for overclocking? if its the latter, should i get anouther cpu cable for the psu? and will running just the 8 pin plug be bad in some way?

im wondering about this aswell

lol you beat me too it. thats a huge relief that someone else agrees except i guess i got my numbers way wrong O_o

actually that kinda makes sense cause i just looked up the speeds and i guess sata caps at 6gb/s and usb3.0 caps at about 5gb/s, dunno why i didnt think of that before

hey, so i have a 512gb m.2 ssd for my OS and main softwares i use daily like web browser and video edditing software, and then i have a usb3.0 4TB external HDD, and have yet to buy any internal sata HDD's. basically i was wondering what difference it really makes to have a software on one or the other, specifically with requards to video games. lets say i have gta5 installed on the external HDD, i know that would make it take longer to load the game in the first place, but would it in any way affect the actual gameplay? i suppose with games like minecraft it might since the game continues to load the map from the harddrive as you move around in the world. my other concern then is would this be bad enough to notice a drop in performance? and would buying an internal sata hdd be any better than the usb 3.0 one? im asking in all theoretical situations because i dont have the time to test it myself, and dont want to be installing games on my m.2ssd because i frequently have to uninstall games to make room for new ones, and then switch back when i wanna play the other one and such and i dont wanna wear it out. also, im not sure if i should buy internal hdd's first, or if i can save up for my 4k monitor first

sorry nvm, i just sent it back and theyr gonna send me the correct one.

i dont have access to a camera right now, however here is the one i ordered: this is the one i got: im on hold with them right now trying to find out how long itll take to get my case

says v2 on the box

so i ordered the throne window cause i liked the window. but newegg sent me the thor, but idk if its v1 or v2, and idk how they compare as far as cooling is concerned, any ideas?

3:35-4:11 fantastic!!

well yea, but idk if it would truely get rid of all my files and make them unrecoverable, or if they would simply be deleted

this is the built in function i was asking about in the original post

do you perhaps have a source page on microsofts site confirming this?

if thats true, thats amazing!

or maybe its linked to my microsoft account
