Did you try testing individual RAM modules in each slot, or even taking them out entirely?

What troubleshooting have you actually done so far? Just what's shown in the video above?

Can you provide photos of both the power supply connector, and the graphics card connector?

That's another aspect of the puzzle. But there's nothing technical preventing an Arc GPU being used with a Ryzen CPU in a laptop form factor. It all has to work together, both from a financial viable perspective(making it cheap enough, and people actually buying it), and a technical perspective.

Desktops and laptops are fundamentally the same. Desktops can be shrunk down to a laptop form factor(and maybe with some reductions in performance due to thermal and power constraints).

Not everyone showers daily. Personally, I don't even use cologne. I just wash myself properly, wash my clothes, and put on deodorant.

So you highlight the good experience you had with Zotac and ASUS, and ignore all the complaints that people file. Every company has RMAs, and some individuals might be experience a spike in RMAs compared to others. I've had one Zotac card failure(1/2 so 50% failure rate), and one ASUS card fail(1/2 again, so 50%). Based on those numbers, they must be unreliable! Except I don't think that's true. Sample size is too small, and I would argue that so is yours.

How much did you pay for the card originally?

They look like literal cable extensions. You plug the main PSU cable into the extension, and the other end goes into the component. From the power supply's 'perspective', the extension effectively becomes the 'component', and the other end of the extension goes into the component itself.

The change through your web browser ONLY affects your browser.

Defragging is physically moving parts of files around that are broken up across the drive, such that they are effectively put back together. Hard drives are more affected by this than SSDs, but SSDs do benefit from occasional and specific defragging. It's not something you just run on your SSD at all, and you certainly don't want a program that treats an SSD as a hard drive. TRIM is just the OS telling the drive that those specific files are no longer in use(stale data), which the drive will get to per its internal firmware.

It only affects your web browser. Did you try downloading stuff with the new setting enabled? Like an NVIDIA driver or something? You would need multiple sources to see if it actually made a difference.

You can modify your browser's behavior to attempt to create multiple connections by default.

What kind of error do you get when trying to boot from the hard drive?

It's another heatsink for the VRMs based on the fact that there's a heatsink that connects from that heatsink up to the other heatsink to the left of the CPU socket. It would be weird(and inconvenient) for that location to populate an M.2 slot, and in this case, it doesn't. The Z97-A has the M.2 slot, but the Deluxe uses that location for additional VRM cooling instead.

What are your system specs?

What happens if you try to put the hard drive into your PC? What shows up?

And the hard drive has been untouched? That is, you did not format it in any way - it is theoretically the same as it was before the upgrade to the SSD.

What browser are you using?

If you just have the hard drive installed, does the system boot, or did you already format the hard drive?

What are your system specs?

If you bought the power supply brand new, it should still be under warranty.

Are we talking about custom loops, AIOs, or both?
