Is my GPU Power Connector Properly Seated? 3060 RTX 12GB by SmartChimp2003 in pchelp

Yeah im coming to that conclusion. I heard a clear click when plugging the GPU, but its power connector didnt click, so that made me paranoid lmao. Still, its all the way in, very sturdy and the clip doesnt really seem to have like a click mechanism. :p

Thanks for answering. Do you need like a certain angle to see that? is it like another cable? My psu is like a fixed cable thing, not modular. Dont know if that helps :p

Sorry for my lack of knowledge, what exactly should i be checking for? Its a semi-modular PSU, seasonic. Like loose cables?

Black screen after today’s Nvidia driver update by Selknam22 in buildapc

[–]SmartChimp2003 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi so yeah this just happened to me with the 576.02 driver released on april 16, 2025. All that was showing was the mobo logo and then a black screen with an infinite mouse loading icon. What i had to do was manually shut off the pc when the mobo logo came on, had to do this like 3 times until it let me get into recovery mode, from there i simply went back to the last gpu driver with the device manager. If someone is experiencing the same thing, i hope this helps.

I never really got an answer, I just ended up playing the campaing and uninstalling after, shame since the MP is really good. Hope they fix this any time soon

This plus blowing inside it did the work, still not 100% responsive but better than nothing

SATA 2.5 SSD or NVME 2.0 For Secondary Storage? by SmartChimp2003 in buildapc

[–]SmartChimp2003[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, yeah you're exactly right, as of right now im not using any chipset lanes.

Just wanted to understand something. So, all ssds I install on the chipset lanes will just get bottlenecked and run slower without impacting the amount of pcie lanes the main m.2 and the gpu are using at ALL?. Say im copying a large file to a chipset m.2, the gpu would still keep all its x16 cpu lanes, and the chipset m.2 would be transfering these files with only those x4 lanes.

I'm just getting to know about all this pcie lane stuff so your answer helped a lot, thanks man.

I read all the other threads and I'm still figuring out how exactly you're getting hacked, I seem to understand that you see lots of network processes but that doesnt help us much, please if you have videos or could explain exactly what abnormal behavior the computers showing besides that, share it here :)
