    PCSPECIALIST Powerful enough PSU?

    Do they play nice like that? I always thought you needed 2 of the same brand to work well? Good to know if thats the case, as the radeon rx 580 has quite a lot of ports

    PCSPECIALIST Powerful enough PSU?

    You can get one graphics card for 6 displays? I used to have just 3 screens, so the old card was fine as it had 2 x HDMI + 1 DP, and then I got a new one to cope with the other 3 I added in. Is it more efficient to have just one GFX card? I was thinking I'd just move these 2 over to the new...

    PCSPECIALIST Powerful enough PSU?

    Thanks. Looking at it, I could probably make it wider (there are 2 guide lines on the bottom of the desk, but they are each held in with 4 screws - so I could probably unscrew them and then drill new holes - I know when they put it in they asked me where I wanted the PC to go, so it should be ok...

    PCSPECIALIST Powerful enough PSU?

    Oh really? I didn't know that. I've always found Intels far quicker (I used to get AMD, purely because they were cheaper haha)

    PCSPECIALIST Powerful enough PSU?

    Thanks. Yes, the problem is the width - its only a standard size (I think 17-18cm, although I'm using a ruler and not tape measure to read it :ROFLMAO:). Thats a good shout about using my own case. I'll do some research and see if I can find something.

    PCSPECIALIST Powerful enough PSU?

    Thanks. This one is ok, but just needs upgrading really. I've already upped the PSU to cope with the 2 graphics cards I have (I have 6 screens). So I have an AMD Radeon R7 200 and Radeon RX 580 cards, with several SSD and M.2 drives, 32gb ram (I'll be moving that over), Intel® Core™ i7 Eight...

    PCSPECIALIST Powerful enough PSU?

    Hi, I'm, contemplating getting a new PC. The last one I got was back in 2019. Although its still a good spec, I wanted to update. Anyway - the spec I have pretty much built, but I'm stumped on the case. I have an electric desk that goes up and down with a button. It has straps the hold the PC...

    PCSPECIALIST PC Keeps crashing with "spike" protection

    Hi, I've got a REALLY annoying issue. We recently had air con fitted to the house, and this keeps causing the power to trip out. We've got an electrician sorting this out BUT in the mean time, my computer keeps coming up with the restart screen saying "ASUS surge protection was activated". The...

    PCSPECIALIST Will this work?

    Hi, I've now got 3 monitors, but I can't actually run them off my current machine :( (as the motherboard only accepts 1 graphics card!) Can anyone tell me if this will be ok with a 2nd GFX card? I took a look on google for the particular motherboard, and it appears that it will support a 2nd...
