  1. I understand that it isn't RMA acceptable but I did contact them about it and they told me just to send it in. I am still at fault though. I will see if I could get an electrician in to check but I really think it could be my motherboard as other tech stuff I have connected to the sockets didn't have any problems. Thanks you for recommending me some solutions though.
  2. I used the DP cable they sent, I would assume it should be compatible with the monitor. Thanks for the info though.
  3. The Problem: I tried to connect 2 different brand new ASUS TUF VG279QM to my brand new Gigabyte Eagle Radeon 6600 To add some context that may help: 2 Weeks ago from this post going up, I was helping my older brother setup his PC and randomly my house breakers for my room got flipped off (I assume it was because all the light in my room were on and we had 2 PC that used quite a bit of power made it flip). We didn't really think about turning off all the power extension bricks and flipped the breakers which blew up and fry my past Sceptre 30" widescreen and the GPU I was using at the time which was an ASUS OEM 1060 6GB card, His PC was fine luckily. I assumed those were the only thing that got damaged, after a few days I got a VG279QM and a Gigabyte Eagle Radeon 6600 with a new Rosewill SMG 750 off Newegg. As soon as I connect the monitor to the GPU with DP, It fried the DP port on the monitor but everything else was fine. The day after, I bought a Pre-built to use but it's not here yet. On May 18th, 2022, I got a replacement VG279QM as I thought it would be fine to plug it in but this time it fried the power port on the monitor, I'm going to get a refund if possible. Hopefully when I get the pre-built there wouldn't be any problems. ALSO, forgot to say but my old Samsung monitor could connect to the GPU and work perfectly fine and I plug the VG279QM into another socket that on the other side of my room unlike where my PC and everything else is connect to. Problems that I suspect could lead to the monitor ports frying: Possible power surge damaged the fuse box? I'm not a electrician as I'm just a 17 year old kid but I think this could be possibility. Damaged Motherboard? I'm not really sure if this would be a problem but I had this thought ever since the first VG279QM broke. Damaged GPU? The GPU works fine but it destroyed 3 other monitors that are new but my 10-12 old Samsung monitor is fine. Damaged Surge Protected Power brick? I'm not sure if this normal since it Surge Protected, I use a brand called CyberPower. Some Solutions I've thought about or have done: I thought it would be my motherboard and GPU be damaged, So instead of getting new parts. I bought a prebuilt that is an upgrade compared to what I use to have. I thought of getting a new Surge protected power brick that is trusted and highly rated to replace what I have, I've never heard of CyberPower power brick other than the CyberPowerPC. (If anyone could recommend me any good Power Surge power/extension bricks that I could buy from a Canadian site, That would be greatly appreciated.) Possibly move to another room in my house? I was think about getting a Power Socket tester but I'm not sure if it will come in any help as I'm not really sure how to tell what's good and bad. What will I do for now?: For now, I guess I will try to focus on refunding the monitor and GPU, PSU bundle back to Newegg. Hopefully I get the pre-built in once piece and nothing is or will be broken and I get some solutions and recommendations. My current PC specs but without the monitor The Pre-Built I bought (I'm going to replace the AIO to a Corsair iCUE H150i Elite Capellix and the RAM to what I have right now) Please ask me anything that will help you and I will try to respond as fast as possible unless I feel like I'm being attacked.
  4. what do you mean "what are you using for?" if you mean by budget probably somewhere in the $2000 CAD or higher but im using it for at home gaming for warzone and others.
  5. if i were to change my monitor or to add one any suggestion, prefer with g-sync and 27" or bigger. thanks
  6. came with these which doesn't fit anywhere on my motherboard
  7. My pc is for gaming and i'm think of playing warzone or doom eternal at higher graphic instead of the lowest graphics, my CPU is fine but i dont know what else to. upgrade PSU for sure but dont know what GPU to get or whatever can keep my pc cool.
  8. Hello, I'm wondering if anyone can help me on making my decisions for upgrading my gaming pc. My specs: Case: Deepcool Matrexx 70 add-rgb 3f Motherboard: Asus ROG Strix B365-F Gaming CPU: Intel i7 8700 @3.20 Ghz GPU: Nvidia 1060 6Gb CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black Edition Ram: G.Skill Trident Z RGB 32 GB Psu: Unknown (Was in my Pre-Built) Full build on Pcpartpicker (https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/cTNxmg) If someone can recommend me new parts for my PC The pic of my PC doesn't currently have the hyper 212 on cause its getting delivered in a few days
  9. It does come with other cables but they don't support 4 pins
  10. Hello, recently I built a new ish PC( Just changing the case to Deepcool Matrexx 70 add-rgb 3f and motherboard to ROG Strix B365-F Gaming). I found a 3-Pin wire, Not sure where to put since the motherboard only has a 4- Pin RGB connector if someone can help me on that. Also on the case, it has a RGB button which is lighting up every second, Not sure if i have enough power get supplied or it's something else. it annoys me a lot. Sorry for the loud fan, I use a stock cooler. 20200516_005326.mp4
