Hi everyone. I need help with choosing a graphics card. I am in a dillema between the 1060 3GB from EVGA and 1060 6GB from ZOTAC. The problem is I have a 400W PSU with 2x 6pin connectors. I have done some research and every site says something different about the power consumption of the ZOTAC version, which I'd like more thatn the EVGA. What is your opinion, I am not very keen on changing the PSU at the moment. I'd be using the graphics card for gaming, but mostly for CS or similar. THANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCE

As I said, tried it on my brothers PC which was not working Tried the oven baked GPU with no luck....SIKE B!ATCH, OVEN WORKED, IT'S RUNNING FLAWLESSLY Still, without this community many people would be left with nothing THANK YOU ALL FOR SUGGESTIONS!

Thank you guys, but it seems that the GPU has a problem. I tried sticking it into my brothers' PC - and i saw the login screen until the drivers installed - then it lost picture again but still some signal was there On his PC it warned me on boot that "Your VGA somethin something Doesn't support fastboot" and promtped me to press f1 if i want to continue and shit I tried an older driver for my card on my PC and it still and the same problem. "I'm not too sure what you mean by 'switch to the GPU in the BIOS' though?" - i meant going in bios and changing the output to the PCI slot my gpu was in. Btw i tried safe mode - since it doesn't load drivers, i get picture but in 800x600. As soon as I go back to normal windows, as soon as it loads the driver I lose signal I think it might be fried maybe? Should I go and send it to service or should I do the "Oven baked GPU" trick?

Hi, I have built a new PC but kept my 1050ti for now The GPU was on DP (Display Port) on the old PC and everything was working fine. When I built the new PC, the MB sends good DVI signal, but when I switch to the GPU in the BIOS, the display port doesn't get signal at all, and when I plug the DVI into the GPU, it gets signal until the windows boot screen dissappears, then the monitor is still on but no picture (it's getting signal but nothing's showin up) I tried using teamviewer to reinstall the drivers while the monitor was hooked up to the GPU, but I only get a picture when the driver uninstalls - as soon as it installs again, lost picture. Any kind of suggestion will do Thank you PS: I have tried another monitor, same result - after it boots it just shows a blank screen. Also i noticed that the bios screen and boot screen are not the correct resolution while on GPU-DVI VID_20210703_152706(0)(0).mp4

Sir, the goosebumps that i got seeing that the pc is working but wasn't firing the signal thru the GPU is just.... Thank you so much! Now I gotta enter BIOS to send the picture thru gpu but I'll do my OS first THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH AGAIN

It's all plugged in, just checked

Then what should I do, can it work thru 4pins?

Yes sir, but as you are just saying that - maybe i should recheck that connection

Hi dear community, I'm having a problem with my build - kt won't post. There is no beeping for debug and I'm suspecting 2 things, the PSU or RAM. The pc turns on and all its fans, but after about 10s it shuts off and on again. I tried moving the RAM from one slot to another - no changes until i hit the last slot where the pc would still not post but the fans would still be spinning. My PSU is older and non modular, has a 4pin connector for the MB which i connected through a converter to make it 8pin. What should I do? GA Z170-HD3 i7 6700K 1xCrucial 8GB DDR4 2666MHz 1xKingston NVMe 250GB 1x1050Ti (no power connectors needed) Thank you in advance

Might try it later, thank you both for the help, I'll mark the solution if I manage to recover those files

Naw, I've got an SSD with my OS on it, but when the PC tries to change something on that drive it crashes my whole system, so I took it out It's important but not like freakin' nuclear codes haha, that's why I was looking for a DIY solution. If there is none then I'll have to take to a shop somewhere.

Yeah I think going safer with a 750W is better

Once again I have to summon thee LTT community for help, A hard drive has probably been damaged or it's lifespan is coming to an end, so every time it tries to load from, I guess, a bad sector it causes a suden restart and/or bluescreen after the restart. So I've swapped it with my other hard drive, same capacity (500GB) but I need to transfer everything from the bad drive to the new one. So my question is how can I transfer all of the files from the bad hard drive that keeps restarting my PC to the new hard drive? Thank you in advance <3!

It does use 95W, but I'm planning to upgrade to i7 3770(maybe even 3770K), and I'm worried about cooling because for now this one reached 78 degrees celsius as I was playing PUBG R6S and such. And I just thought an active cooler right on the CPU would be giving better results, and not reach the 75*C Also I think my problem is that this stock cooler was attached to the factory case by default, so when I bought the new case, I used 4 nuts to screw it onto the motherboard itself. Now those coolers, they would be using 4 built-in twist plastic locks, and if yes, will it be alright?
