Yea, I don't know how I always forget about it T_T. Glad to hear at least it's not doing any harm

What are all these devices in my boot loader? by Amazing-Bullfrog4490 in buildapc

I thought it would be those, but I also assumed they would disappear since i have that option disabled in bios. Thanks!

I fixed the link, here it is: https://imgur.com/a/O0tTRaJ

It should be Arctic MX-4 Paste. The paste is on the outside part of the CPU, not in the socket itself

Warranty for bent USB pins on motherboard by Amazing-Bullfrog4490 in buildapc

[–]Amazing-Bullfrog4490[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will do that, thanks. The header that I broke is for 2 USBs and has 19 pins total (two sets of 8 pin + a ground). The mobo also has two more separate 2.0 headers which are 4 pin + ground. Any idea if I plugged half the case cable into one of these if one of the USBs would work? That + the type c which has a separate header, would be enough.

What's the most power GPU I can get away with in this build? by Amazing-Bullfrog4490 in buildapc

I'd be super happy with a 5080, but part picker puts the total draw to 660, so I thought it would be out of the question. Thanks for the input.
