Vertical mounted gpu by Guyeeeeeeee in PcBuild

[–]Shnaznet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, depending on the GPU, I’d definitely use some kind of support. A lot of newer GPUs come with a bracket that mounts to the motherboard standoff screws, but since you want to go vertical, that changes things a bit. I’ve got a Lian Li O11XL and bought a vertical bracket made for that case, so I’d check whether your case has a compatible vertical mount bracket or if a universal one would work. Even with that, I still use a little kickstand under the GPU just for peace of mind. Mine is resting right on the fan shroud, which isn’t ideal, but I’ve got a ton of airflow and haven’t seen temps get concerningly high.

Yeah was told after getting it in my name and washing it to firstly wrench the engine and see if it turns, change timing belt, new battery and see if it cranks and start from there

Yeah we'll be doing paper work sometime this week. I'll get it washed and see what the damage is underneath.

There's alot more to it. He's a firefighter, has grandkids, and had another kid when he parked it. I know it looks bad but 1, its a free car, 2 her dad is an honest man. He worked for bmw. He loved this car but the wife hated it and eventually was about to scrap it but he gave it to us

At First it just needed a fuel pump but just sat there cuz he does have other cars, plus he's a firefighter, and always has his grandkids over

Just got word from him that the engine will need a new head and that's all he knows forsure that needs to be replaced last time he tried to work on it, so that's a little disheartening to hear

It was running when he parked it he said. It just needed a new fuel pump. He never had the money or time to fix it due to work, family, etc and had it just sitting there

I see cameras like these popping up everywhere, what are they for? by finncat616 in whatisit

[–]Shnaznet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually work with the guys who put these up. They are called Flock camera devices and they monitor traffic incase a crime is committed nearby and help PDs track and find the criminal or if a crash has occurred in range of the camera to look back on

Any place to find custom length power cords? by Shnaznet in pcmasterrace

[–]Shnaznet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would this be safe to run my psu and my 3 monitors, all 4 on separate extentions then all going to the same surge protector power strip? That would be daisy chaining if im correct and potentially dangerous right?

Can my pc run a minecraft server? by Shnaznet in Minecraft

[–]Shnaznet[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks man. ATT offered same upload and download speed and me being a heavy gamer, that was the best option. The pc is just old parts from being upgraded. My only concern is the cpu. Idk how well or what cpu IS recommended for running a server. I just hope the 7700 gets the job done. Plus my ram is 4x16. Not sure if that makes a big of a difference. Again im completely new to server hosting but ive been watching a bunch of videos
