    Hey guys, I recently build a pretty cheap pc out of an old dell pc with a q6600, replacing the psu, drives, and gpu with better ones. I ended up installing w10 on it and left it for a couple of weeks, but now when I start it up I'm getting no video signal.

     

    Thanks in advance!

    is the outputting cable connected? and/or can you try another cable?

    Before the graphics card pricing went through the roof, I was able to grapb a Zotac Amp 1080 for 500 dollars. So now I am mining nicehash with it so that I can make some money when I am not using the computer. I am checking the statistics and the dashboard throughout the day and my income per day continually fluctuates. Sometimes it is 8 dollars per day and then 5 minutes later it will drop to 2.5 dollars per day. Is this normal? I am not running any overclock yet on my gpu either.

    the rate of the bitcoin is fluctuating heavily at the moment so that's why  your earnings drop

    Hi all, I am planning to build a new workstation PC that will double as a gaming PC from time to time.

     

    I will be using this for video editing, running virtual hosts and servers for Software Development Projects, and rendering projects with Unity.

    Additionally I would like to use virtualization to run a NAS with 4 x 6TB Western HDD to use around the workspace.

     

    Specs:

    CPU: Intel Core i9 7900x 10-core

    Motherboard: MSI X299 XPOWER GAMING AC Intel Motherboard

    RAM: 64 GB Corsair Vengance RGB

    Graphic Card: MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Gaming X Trio 11GB DDR5X Graphics Card

    Power Supply: Corsair HX Series 80 Plus Platinum Certified HX1000 1000W Power Supply

    CPU Cooler: Corsair Hydro Series H150i Pro RGB High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler

    Primary Storage: Samsung 960 EVO 1TB M.2 PCI-e 3.0 x 4 NVMe Solid State Drive

    Screen: Samsung CHG90 49" 144Hz QLED Curved Gaming Monitor / Super Ultra-wide 3840 x 1080 Resolution

     

    I do realize most of this might be overkill, but since it counts as a business expense and I am within budget I thought this might be a perfect build.

     

    Is there any recommendations as to what I can change or remove or add to make it a better experience in performance?

     

    Thank You.

    I think a case would be handy as it gives the option to plug in more USB drives
