MSI just announced a new motherboard, MEG X299 CREATION, which is the first consumer motherboard that comes with 3 x 8 pin CPU power connectors. Lots of users have question such as do we need to plug in power cables from PSU to all of those CPU power connectors to get the system wo...
If that didn’t work, it’s time to unplug every power cable that is connected to your components. This includes the 24 pin and the CPU power cables connected to your motherboard, additional power cables running to any PCIe devices like your GPU, and SATA and Molex power connectors connect...
Also, applying the thermal paste to the CPU is a must. It’ll reduce the overheating substantially. Moreover, you should also add some additional coolers if there’s free space to do it. Just make sure that your power supply isn’t overwhelmed. If you need some software to follow the t...
The M4 Pro has a total of 12 CPU cores while the M1 Mac Studio I'm running has only 10. That's not as big an advantage for the M4 compared to the M1 Max as you might think (other than the processor's native speed, which is about twice as fast as the M1). The two additiona...
One stigma that comes with getting a prebuilt machine is that consumers have no control over what kind of parts their particular machine will have. Sure, there’s the advertised CPU, GPU, and perfunctory listing of RAM, storage, etc., but as to what brand or iteration — it’s in ...
SoCs have enormous performance benefits because all the electrical impulses have to travel far shorter distances. Because the distance is shorter, the current used can be considerably less. And because the current is lower, there's less power used. Less power used means less heat and ...
Wierd that the power connectors are to the rear of that GPU. The Sapphire Nitro+ RX580 cards that I have seen have power connectors to the side of the GPU and a large silver heatpipe at the side. Can you tell me what GPUz reports for that card? That PSU is very...
make sure that the PCI-E connectors and the PSU is working fine before getting to another step. You can check the output voltage of the PCIe connector by using a digital multimeter, and it should read ~12V. If your PSU and PCIe power connectors are okay then you should look for another...
The built-in graphics card means that installing the Blackmagic eGPU Pro is very simple – just plug in the power cable, and then use the included Thunderbolt cable to connect it to your Mac. There are two Thunderbolt 3 ports on the back of the unit – with one being used to connect...
FPGA. The Titanium range of devices provides the ability to interface with dynamic data rate four (DDR4) and low-power DDR4(x) (LPDDR4(x)). Depending on the exact Titanium device selected, the bus width support is x32 (J) or x16 (M), while some devices have no LPDDR4 support (L)...
