PC Tech PC won't turn on. Might need a new PSU
Brick replied to Brick's topic in PC/Mac Technical and PCCB
Ah OK. There is actually a Canada Computers by my house so I could get it delivered there for pickup if it'll be faster/cheaper than to my house. By middle of the range do you mean because it's 80 Plus Gold? As per my OP is going up to Platinum or Titanium even worth it, or are the slight improvements not worth the extra cost? -

Well yeah, just wanted to make sure that wasn't one of their "lesser" models since the price is that low. -

Oh that's a pretty good price actually! Seeing as how it's Corsair I'm going to guess it's also a quality PSU as well, yes? -

On a more personal note my brother and I could never beat Batman Forever for the SNES. We played it a bunch growing up, but it was way too difficult, bad controls, convoluted systems, and really just a bad Mortal Kombat beat-em-up knock off. Even trying to cheese it didn't always work. The circus level, and some tram level were just infuriating to try and get through. Plus if you died and lost all your lives, too bad you have to start all over again from the very beginning because there was no level select.

Brick replied to Brick's topic in PC/Mac Technical and PCCB
Hmm so would you suggest just getting a cheaper PSU at about the same wattage as I've been using now, and then upgrade it when I do my next full upgrade (will probably get the 6080Ti whenever that comes out like I said, as well as the current CPU at that time, maybe some more RAM, and a new monitor probably), or just go ahead and get a better PSU to future proof myself to hopefully last another ten years? -

Oh. What's different with these new 3.0 connectors? Are they compatible with older hardware or are they made specifically for the new cards? -

Brick replied to Brick's topic in PC/Mac Technical and PCCB
Unfortunately I don't have an older one to test. Weirdly my case doesn't even make a post beep when I turn the computer on. I am not really in any hurry since I don't use it for any work, thankfully, and I have my older laptop to play some of my older games until I can sort out the issue. What do you mean by adapters for connectors though? Thanks for the offer. Not sure if 600 watts would be enough. Any good online calculators that you know of? I have a 2080Ti and a i7 9700K with 32 GB of RAM if that helps. I'll take a look at that video when I'm home tomorrow. -
Last week I went to go turn my PC on, and it didn't boot up. The lights on the fans flashed for a brief second, and even spun up a bit, but then immediately stopped. A couple of nights earlier my PC had restarted on its own while I was playing a game with a friend, which was weird, but I didn't think much of it at the time. I'm thinking my power supply unit has finally hit the end of its run as it's now 10 years old. Unfortunately I've been so busy the past week I haven't really been able to properly research and find a replacement. I could use some help and advice from the more knowledgeable PC gamers/builders here. I have found a handful of PSUs in quick searches, here https://www.amazon.ca/Corsair-CP-9020139-NA-HX1000-Platinum-Performance/dp/B01N5NWKHH/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=1GMA133CEL1I0&keywords=power%2Bsupply%2B1000w&qid=1672783389&sprefix=Power%2Bsupply%2Caps%2C112&sr=8-3&th=1 https://www.amazon.ca/CORSAIR-SeriesTM-RM750x-Modular-Supply/dp/B08R5W27JS/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?adgrpid=64875205401&gclid=CjwKCAiAwc-dBhA7EiwAxPRylAgKRWDAsE4Fu-Ii_usImtz1tWqABkQV8npvI3mVMDWaIE9OkyG7GhoCeHoQAvD_BwE&hvadid=603063707918&hvdev=m&hvlocphy=9000812&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=10643367754987838968&hvtargid=kwd-305673614540&hydadcr=20831_13370553&keywords=seasonic+power+supply&qid=1672783263&sr=8-6 https://www.newegg.ca/seasonic-prime-ultra-gold-ssr-1000gd-1000w/p/N82E16817151199?Description=power supply unit 1000w&cm_re=power_supply unit 1000w-_-17-151-199-_-Product https://www.newegg.ca/asus-rog-thor-rog-thor-1000p2-gaming-1000-w/p/N82E16817320020?Description=power supply unit 1000w&cm_re=power_supply unit 1000w-_-17-320-020-_-Product I don't know if these are good ones or not (especially for the price), but I know at least in terms of popular brands I should be safe with Corsair, Asus, Seasonic, EVGA, or Gigabyte. What would you guys recommend, and what wattage should I look for since right now my current PSU is 750w and Silver rated? If I decide to upgrade in a couple of years when the RTX 50XX or even RTZ 60XX series are out, should I go up to 1000w, or would that probably be overkill and I'd be safe at 850w? Maybe even go up to 1200w? Obviously these would be guesses since we don't know what those future cards will be like, but based on current trajectory can we make an educated guess? Also while I would like to at least get a Gold rated PSU, is it worth it going to Platinum or even Titanium? Thanks for any help in advance, guys.

Robbing a place anywhere in Texas of all places seems like a very stupid idea to be honest. Then again most criminals are very stupid.

None of you will beat me. I got this as a Christmas gift one year because it was back before I or my parents really knew how to look up what games were good
