  1. I'm in North America, our outlets can provide around 1800 watts. If I have a 2500 watt device (I would buy the 5,000 watt version), and plug it into a 5,000 watt 120 to 240 watt transformer on Amazon, won't that constantly trip the home breaker or cause a fire?
  2. 1. Whichever prebuilt I do get, I can always adapt the 24 pin to 8 pin, or just make sure it has a 24 pin slot. The 4 pin could just come from a 4+4 cpu connector from the psu. 2. If you werent referring to the 24 pin connector, what were you referring to? 3. Was that in a prebuilt PC like a dell/hp/acer? Which model was it, if it was a prebuilt?
  3. Yeah, I will definitely replace or add a nice 90+ gold psu to the system. I dont think Sandy bridge to hazwell prebuilt PC's have m.2 slots, so no errors there. What was that on? That is more of a software/bios issue, not a having more than 2 gpus in a system. Were you using PCIe risers with the 1x slots or was it 4 x16 slots right on the motherboard?
  4. Could I just get some PCIe risers, plug them into the machine, install the GPU's in a frame, install a mining linux distro on it, and mine away, or is there anything else I need to consider? I found plenty with 3 to 5 PCIe lanes, x16 and x1, sometimes x4. Mainly from the sandy bridge to Haswell generation. Anything funky that I should know about these manufacturers in terms of this? Thank you!
  5. I am just wondering if I can still mine on video cards if they do not display video, or if they blue screen. Am I able to mine if they have no video, if they blue screen, or are they just useless paper weights? Video card can vary from anything from nvidia 10 to 30 series, to AMD Polaris 400 + 500 series, any navi card, and any Vega card. Nothing older than Polaris/Vega, and nothing older than Pascal. Could include Quadro's, Titan's, or Radeon Instinct', but not likely. I would not use Windows (for obvious reasons). I would just use Hive OS or NiceHash OS (either of these from a USB drive) and remote manage it from my personal computer over the network.
  6. Yeah il just leave the mesh in front.
  7. I am probably going to get a corsair h100i, the coolermaster rgb cooler, the evga clc, or the nzxt kraken. The kraken is the most expensive at $130 ish and the cheapest is the evga and the corsair at $90 and $100 respectively. The coolermaster rgb one is $115 without the rgb and $120 with the rgb
  8. And that will cool a 3900x adequately? Im not overclocking whatsoever but I will do some content creation on it. I thought the 3900x needed a 280m cooler or bust. Honestly, air cooling seems awesome but I would have to have 2 extra fans on the top the exhaust the heat away, as opposed to having a liquid cooler up there which is the exhaust. The bequiet dark rock pro 4 and the noctua nh d15 are 2 air cooling candidates. I want my PC to look clean on the inside but if a bequ8iet dark rock pro 4 is much better than any 240mm cooler at cooling a 3900x then il just go that route. But if its not that different than a 240mm cooler then il go with a 240.
  9. Yes but it doesnt say h500m, its just the straight h500 with mesh and the option for acrylic. I personally like water cooling because it keeps the case very clean looking inside.
  10. I am getting the coolermaster h500 (the one thats around $100). I want to put a 280mm cooler on my 3900x. I currently have a gigabyte x570-i motherboard. Will the 280mm cooler fit on top of the case because it has the 2 140mm fan spots or do I have to go with a 240mm cooler on the top? If a 240mm cooler has to go on the top, then il just put a 280mm or 360mm cooler on the front. Do I have to get rid of the 2 200mm fans, or does the 360 or 280mm cooler just go behind the 200mm fans? Or can the 200mm fans just go on the top of the case?
  11. Thats actually a good idea to just put the motherboard in the new case, when I upgrade to intel or a higher end AMD CPU in like 5 to 10 years anyway, I will probably switch motherboards, get a larger SSD, etc. I probably will just do a case, cooler, and PSU swap.
  12. I currently have a gigabyte aorus pro wifi x570-i motherboard, I want to put my ryzen 9 3900x into a larger case, so naturally I would get a motherboard to fit the larger case. My 2 preferred options are the gigabyte x570 ultra and the x570 aorus pro wifi. Do I need to reinstall windows when switching motherboards,or could I simply put both of my nvme SSD's into the motherboard no problem? Or if I do reinstall windows, I do have some important programs in the main drive, would I simply need to move them to my D drive before reinstalling windows, or could I simply create an image of the C drive, put it somewhere, then when I reinstall windows, I simply load the image on my C drive? Yes, the C drive is where Windows is and the D drive is where some programs are. The main drive is a 1tb corsair mp500 and the D drive is a 2tb adata sx 8200.
  13. Will I need to remove both 2 x 200mm fans on the h500 to install an evga 280mm cooler, or could I mount the 280mm cooler on the top? I looked at the specs of the case and it says the 280mm cooler can fit in front but I dont want to remove the pretty fans to do it. I have a 3900x in an itx system and I have been wanting to put it in a larger case.
  14. So Verizon uses 2, 4, 5, 13, 46, 48, and 66 for their 4g lte network , just looked it up. The main ones are 2, 4, 13, and 66. These are the bands that the phone I am looking at supports on 4g. B1(2100), B2(1900), B3(1800), B4(AWS), B5(850), B7(2600), B8(900), B12(700), B13(700), B17(700), B20(800), B26(850), B28(700), B66(AWS-3) TD B38(2600), B40(2300), B41(2500) If I had to guess, the B just stands for band, so I can safely ignore the B? In any case, bands 46 and 48 are missing from my phone. That shouldnt be an issue right? Since they arent the main bands on Verizon?
  15. So essentially I can buy any high end phone I want and just pop my sim card in it and it will work? As long as the sim card fits?
