  1. Hello new to rgb and the forums im really stumped an feel quite dumb as i bet this is really simple lol. a while ago when i built my rig i used a XSPC 8 Way 12v rgb block to run my RGB's off one header an it was powered by a sata port, now i only did that as i heard in a few places that running 3 strips of RGB's through a wire splitter from one headder was a bad idea and now im building a rig for a friend i cant find the XSPC 8 Way i used in the past anywhere, every one has sold out any advice on a alternative or is the wired 3 splitter is fine?
  2. @flibberdipper im aware of that but i wasnt sure if it was a good idea to do so, i can use 4 singles or 8 duals on plug wise, so are you saying i can use 1 cable for both sockets?
  3. @pizapower you are one strange person lol sorry i couldnt do more ha
  4. @mariushm thank you that made alot of sence, i think i will go for just getting another sATA SSD for my "week transfers" thank you all for this
  5. @Enderman even with its minimum a 750? whatabout the amps is that safe? ive never had a Graphics card with a 8 pin let alone two of them, ive only ever had "mid range" that only needed a single 6 pin
  6. @Deli so would you recomend just spending the money on a bigger sATA SSD and using my old boot drive as a "middle" insted?
  7. this it the third post ive done tonight on comp stuff and im always full of questions and this isnt a dupe. on my saphire pulse vega 56 8gb it has 2 8pin connections and i have it plugged with 2 seperate power cables an its ungly as hell i have a 750W EVGA GQ Gold Semi-Modular and i watched alot of youtube, mainly linustechtips and jaystwocents and they both always seem to use a seperate cable for each socket but im wondering would it be safe to use just ONE cable to power both sockets, they do have another cable on them but i wasnt sure so i put 1 cable per socket,
  8. @Deli i do move large files (up to 40gb sometimes) but thats from HDD as ive had to shift them from my current SSD but i have always wanted to have a SSD as my "This Week" drive this is why im asking would it make much diff if i got a NVME, as moving from SSD to NVME and vise versa would be much quicker whic is what i need, sorry i call it NVME its just that how i know my two sockets as they (acording to the manal) wont take the older gen M2 its a B450 if that helps, my bios is up to date too, latest is april this year, this is a new thing to me so please bear with me
  9. im sure this has been asked ALOT and if it has can i be pointed in the right direction, if not... i have Two NVME slots on my MB and i was wondering if it would be worth the 90 GBP to get a 256GB to replace my SSD which is plugged via sATA cable, many say i wont see a proformance differnce as i use my system for games and alot of browsing (mainly youtube), so would it be worth it or should i just use the money to buy a bigger SSD as mine is 240 an its a Sandisc Ultra II, just seems a shame to buy a snazzy new MB and not use the new sockets as i want to in the long run abloish my HDD out of the system as its in the way of my fans, so was thinking of putting it into a external for the time being but not untill i im sure what to do with the SSD i have as if getting the NVME is better ill use my 240SSD for my most common games, 4 years on and its only lost 2%health
  10. when im given "infected" systems what i do myself is take the drive out and plug it into my external then set my Avast to do a boot scan but set to "removable devices" so when i boot my system it reads the external first and if i need to run windows i use a USB Windows and have my SSD and HDD unplugged, so all it can do is scan the "only drive" there, so far in doing that ive got in a guess a 8/10 on that, i do have a second USB but with Malwarebytes and it seems to kill whatever is on the "infected" device, even fixed a andriod SD card once, how a virus got on that i dont know but i do know it "killed it", but as said that what i do, everyone is different. p.s ccleaner is the best (Y) free and simple
  11. ide send it back and change who you buy from tbh, thats a hell of alot just for a lappy and i have a friend who uses his for massive 3d renders, he broke his warrenty cause it was cheaper just to buy a ssd and a extra 4gb chip than it would of cost him to send it back, 2 year later an hes still pushing the old girl, now with a external GPU but still, if that was me ide send it back as said and just buy a base unit with what i needed longing it was above what i needed.
  12. @nick name didnt really awnser what i asked
  13. i have hyperx predator memory at present running just 1 stick of 8GB but i will be getting a second this week but my question is is the xmp better than just the 3200 boost i had it set to before hand on CPUZ my readings are (before selecting XMP) Dram Frq - 1595 Mhz FSB:DRAM - 1:16 CL - 18 tRCD - 22 tRP - 22 tRas - 52 tRAS - 52 tRAC -74 CR - 1T With XMP FSB:DRAM - 1:16 CL - 16 tRCD - 18 tRrp - 18 tRas - 36 tRAS - 36 tRAC -74 CR - 1T im aware lower is better but is this better?
  14. UPDATE: i tried my 600W and i had a massive coil whine from it so i tried a mates 700W (not sure what it was but it had 2 seperate power plugs for my pluse, the coild whine was still there but alot lower than before so i went with a 750W in the end, NO COIL WHINE, and it is powered by 2 seperate cables, so thank you @GoldenLag for your advice but my rig clearly didny like anything lower than 700 for whatever reason, true what they say, the Vega's are hungry. with the 750W i have no whine at all, not even at full chat, :S thought ide nip by and just update :)
  15. I failed to mention I was getting some extra 2 tb 7200rpm drives too so that’s why I’m gonna opt for the 650w
