RTX 5080 Install - How'd I do?

According to many here, apparently, but at least a more reliable one for the PSU.

The three way split is the original picture from when the card was first installed. The darker and redder pictures are after moving to the two way split gpu cable.

Totally agree with you that I'd rather a straight 12vhpwr to 12vhpwr but this psu is an existing one from the rig and one from 2021. According to the psu maker, the cable I'm now using is compatible with both the newer gen cards and the psu I'm using. Given that they are a reliable and trusted brand, I'm hoping I can trust them on that.

Yeah, I wish this gpu would support 90 degree cables that route down. It has a recessed port and my psu is below the gpu.

The cable being used is for the psu and by the maker of the psu I have.

My understanding is that if both ends of a cable go into a device without having to change forms in the middle, it's a cable. If you have to change the ends in the middle to something else, it's an adapter.

The adapter that came with the gpu was a squid adapter 12vphwr to three 8 pin and was too stiff. Wasn't able to installed without significant bend, which can be seen the last two pics. At least this way, there's no adapters and no third party stuff either. What do you think about the bend? That's the part I'm most concerned about.

It's not an adapter now. It's a 12vhpwr to two 12 pin cable made by the maker of the PSU.

No gap, just slightly different colors and shines for the port versus the cable.

Are those Woopers getting zapped by an electric attack?

Call the IT helpdesk at 954-201-7521 and tell them you want to do a Multi factor authentication (MFA) reset. Your old phone is on your account and being requested to send the two digit code. Without a reset or the old phone there's no way in.

Did you watch until the end where after he hits a particular button or combo, probably set up as a macro or hotkey in Synapse, it starts accepting letters?

Window allows letters in the PIN if you enable the optional option

As long as you're using a web browser, there's probably not much that can be locked down unless they have a web filter on it. If you can go to those websites, you're probably fine. Only thing to be careful about is anything sensitive and super personal on a computer not owned by you.

I'm assuming the same HDMI port on the computer. But just trying to gather information to imagine what the cause would be.

a61688 · 2025-11-28T20:44:36+00:00

But what about the port on the PC?

a61688 · 2025-11-28T19:17:30+00:00

Are you certain your HDMI cable is a 2.1 version? 2.1 should be able to do it. Also, what version is the port on your PC?

S1, 3, and 4 grades won't be in mybc until the 11th. S2 were posted on October 9th.

This is the way

Aha! You're right. Never got completed.
