Thread: GPU Fried!?

    Have you tried unplugging it and plugging it back in?
    I hit Brett right in the feels.

    Did you check your printer cables?

    Also, agreed with Stars, if your PSU is pushing watts no load, something is wrong.

    This thing is pushing 4 HDD, 2 Optical Drives, 1 GTX 560, 4 sticks of RAM, Q6600 OC'ed and Undervolted (Pushes fine Overvolted), and 6 120 MM fans. Max load is pushing my breaking point (Not reached often). Mmmmmm efficiency.

    That is really not much load and are those even 7200rpm drives?

    You easily pull my wattage with what I have nothing is wrong with the current psu. You guys realize I have a meter that tells me the wattage draw I am not saying in theory I use this much power I am saying as a fact I use this much power under load. Under no load I pull about 400W avg.

    I dont care what you pull from the wall.
    What I said was a 750W psu will provide (output) 750w REGARDLESS of what it pulls from the wall. Thats why I said a 1kw psu that is giving 1kw of power will pull 1200w IF its 80% efficient.

    Honestly I dont have a clue what steamer is saying though.

    Yes they are Zero.
    I read that wrong. I thought you meant he was hitting his peak with no load. I was having my first cup of coffee.

    400W is a bit much no load what a leech your PC is lol.

    If it's a good one, yes.
    Most 1k PSU's will not provide a full 1k. They will say so, but deliver ~900 and pull ~1300.... lol. People should always invest in a great PSU. This is something most hobbyist's look over, and very much ignored as not a "major" component.

    Yea my 1.2Kw is rated to pull 1.4Kw max but yes the 750W had been preforming fine so far without issue.

    As for the 400W under no load you got to keep in mind this computer has generally twice as much stuff running in it compared to a normal desktop so that is not really surprising.
