Can I fit a 360mm radiator with a 320mm GPU on the Corsair 4000D Airflow?

chrome iris Dec 12, 2020, 8:40 PM

#

i would definitely upgrade. What psu do you have? Thermaltake Smart? EVGA W1?

young osprey Dec 12, 2020, 9:02 PM

#

if you aren't overclocking that should be plenty.

#

might want a bronze or gold tho

paper depot Dec 12, 2020, 9:07 PM

#

anyone got any experience with a 140mm psu in a nr200 yet? got a great deal on a seasonic ssr-750fx but not sure how bad the bit longer length might hurt me

i think you use that to power the rgb hub

#

the thick connector connects to a sata cable coming from the psu and the other end connects to the hub to give it power

#

but you prolly won't need it if you connected the hub to the mobo iirc

Have no clue what case to get and psu for roughly a Ryzen 9 5900x. I’d ideally want a case to fit a 3080 or 3090 and an atx motherboard so likely a mid tower with some rgb.

quick question, have 700w power supply, have a 1050ti in MB, everything works fine... i plug in 3060ti, and nothing powers on... put back the 1050ti back in, it works again... just trying to get a few ideas what maybe issue... and the PS is a bit over 8 years old... (probably going to try a new one soon) just thought i'd ask another area

scenic lance Dec 13, 2020, 5:09 AM

#

if all the cables are plugged in right and your components work fine with the 1050ti there is no reason it shouldn't work

low tree Dec 13, 2020, 5:09 AM

#

the 1050ti doesn't need cables to plug in, it gets it's power from MB

scenic lance Dec 13, 2020, 5:10 AM

#

700W is also enough for 3060ti (unless your cpu and other hardware draws a lot of power)

it's been running fine

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:28 PM

That's a 700W PSU

ocz is fun

#

yea

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:28 PM

#

554 is only the 12VDC rail

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:28 PM

hmmmm

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:28 PM

#

That should be fine for the 3060

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:29 PM

#

i thought so too, but when I plugged in the new GPU.. nothing powered on, lights went on for half a second, like it discharges when the plug is out when I am about to work on it... to get any residual charge out

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:29 PM

#

ehm

#

Are you sure you used a PCI-E power cable and not the motherboard 8 pin?

surreal magnet Dec 15, 2020, 11:30 PM

#

3060ti only uses 1 PCIe connector, which can only be on one of the 12v rails

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:30 PM

#

it's a PCI-E cable... and it went into the adapter the FE's provided

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:30 PM

#

Ah, I thought it was two into the 12 pin sorry

surreal magnet Dec 15, 2020, 11:30 PM

#

so thats ~275w per rail

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:30 PM

#

Ye, should be fine on that PSU

surreal magnet Dec 15, 2020, 11:31 PM

#

meaning, make sure the 8 pin you use is on its own 12v rail

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:31 PM

#

Maybe it's not seated fully or something. Try a different modular cable?

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:31 PM

oh i tripple checked each time I tried it

firmly put it into the adapter

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:31 PM

I meant the card into the slot

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:32 PM

yeah, it went in fine.. the clip went in to lock it into place

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:32 PM

#

SOmething isn't right then, that PSU should be more than enough

#

It's a 200W card

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:34 PM

#

bob said it could be that it's old, and not pushing out enough watts... but it's enough for what it has.. 9700k, AIO cooler, m.2 SSD and the RAM and MB taking up some of the watts... should be about 300 watts about that from one of the calculators i used

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:34 PM

#

I would honestly try a different PCI-E power cable and port on the PSU

#

Unless you tried them all

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:35 PM

#

i tried all the ports in the PSU.. same PCI-E... will have to open older PC to see if i can snag that PCI-E cable

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:35 PM

#

Your PSU should have come with 2 of them

#

Check the box maybe?

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:36 PM

#

it's been 8 years since I built the other pc, but 5 months for this one.. i used the old PCU for this build

yes

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:37 PM

I mean, it's POSSIBLE it could be getting weak but typically they either work or they don't

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:38 PM

everything is plugged in... i hit power... and it looked like it was discharging the residual power that was still in PSU

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:38 PM

#

No fan spin?

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:38 PM

#

the lights on MB flash for 1 second

#

not even a fan spin that i could see or hear

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:38 PM

#

How long did you wait with the power on?

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:39 PM

#

when I hit the power button, it starts normally.. but with new GPU.. it looks like the system is discharging...

#

i know, odd

surreal magnet Dec 15, 2020, 11:39 PM

#

try running the system without the PCIe power cable attached

#

but with the gpu installed

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:40 PM

#

hmmmm but the card needs the power...

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:40 PM

#

See if you get a GPU error light or POST code

surreal magnet Dec 15, 2020, 11:40 PM

#

i want to see the system display the "Please insert GPU power cable"

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:40 PM

ok, will def try that in morning

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:40 PM

Might be a bad card

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:40 PM

#

i'd hate for that to be such..

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:40 PM

#

Well, you'd have an answer

#

Any answer is better than none

surreal magnet Dec 15, 2020, 11:40 PM

#

if you can run the card without the pcie power cable, and the system successfully loads the cards vbios, then the card may not be the issue

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:40 PM

#

true... I should call up bestbuy, and see if they could test the GPU.. not sure if they do that

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:41 PM

#

Yeah, at that point it's the power cable or PSU

low tree Dec 15, 2020, 11:41 PM

#

I know the PSU i have now is def 8+ years I had it.. not sure how long ago it was actually made.. figure another year or so.. so almost 9-10 year old PSU... most PSU's don't last that long...

#

and when I built the PC 5 months ago, I just got the other components, and used the 1050ti, case and PSU... all else was new

opal night Dec 15, 2020, 11:42 PM

Picture of the PCI-E powe cable you're using?

surreal magnet Dec 15, 2020, 11:42 PM

This is a VERY popular power supply, and I think a big part of it is that it's the best value for an inexpensive, reasonably efficient modular power supply, so obviously many users will be interested in something like this.
