Hi all,
Apologies for my late reply. Got extremely busy work-wise for the few days following my last response, and due to travelling and having very limited access to the internet, I haven't had a chance to check back here.
Short answer:
I was not able to identify the issue unfortunately...
Will give that a go. I also hope it's just a loose cable...
Just one quick comment, upon startup, all fans seem to work/spin. If you happened to be referring to my picture from my latest post, the computer is turned off, but the LCD error screen persists.
And thank you both for looking into my...
The power connectors; I think there's 2 of them. I think this one is where the GPU is connected(?), but the other one I can't see properly cause it's blocked. I will try to take another pic to see if I can see the connector.
Edit: ps. Is this parts what you were referring to as power source...

At the moment VR is not high on my priority list, so if that's the only stopgap for going AMD I can live without. Besides, I do believe VR will all but keep improving from what it is right now, so in 5+ years time it might be more of a reason...
Thank you! Will consider switching to the 7600 if benchmarks are pretty much the same and runs a bit cooler.
From what I can see, the power draw is less as well, therefore making using an 850W PSU a easy choice?
Thank you very much for the recommendation. Those m.2 options seem to fit quite nicely! Just to understand more on this; when using 2 SSD drives, will I need to do any additional setting-up to 'set' them up for booting/storing? (will of course look this up when the time comes, but thought I...
Hi all,
Hope this finds you well!
I have finally decided to get some upgrades going (quite overdue to be honest as I’m still using my 10-year old laptop that has a 740m as a GPU)…
General usage:
The following is the build I have come up with. It’s going to be used mainly for variety gaming...
