How about your TV,computers etc? Do you run them directly off the AC mains or use a stabilizer/ups with them?

There was a post on a FB group recently where users were warned not to buy any Zotac Gpus from Flipkart by a representative of Zotac India-apparently their suppliers source these gpus from unofficial sources and thus these cards won't be eligible for any warranty claims in future. If you have...

Received it last week from the service center-the replacement unit appears to be refurbished and has some scuffs/scratches at certain regions (are relatively minor ones). Also there's slight rusting/corrosion inside the cooling fins of the gpu's heatsink. Also i noticed that the card wasn't...

RTX 5060 8gb (if you want a 8gb gpu)-you will get nvidia exclusive features like dlss4 upscaling,RT etc

its fine-V3 should be ok.

CM MWE is definitely better suited to your setup than the Vs 700L. Why did you buy the RX 6500xt and for how much?

250v input is not good for long term-it maybe safe for generic appliances but not for computers and other sensitive electronics. Check the ac input voltage with a multimeter to make sure whether its really 250V or the ups is displaying incorrect values.

its a branded "generic" psu which could have malfunctioned at any time. I doubt it can even provide a stable 500w output,let alone 700w

I had a VS 450 Grey label which died a few months back-replaced it with Cooler master MWE 450 v2-it can handle a 1660 gpu on an older 4th gen i5 build.

Corsair Vs 450 is quite old-i don't think it would be a good idea to power this setup with this old PSU. You should get a new 450W/550W unit from CM/Corsair for this new build.

did you replace it manually or get it done by APC's technicians? How much did it cost you?

i had been thinking of getting the br1500//1000g as well,but was deterred by the fact that the upper threshold for AVR trim on these models is a bit high ie 250v,which indicates that the ups won't step down the voltage unless it exceeds 252V,which can be quite harmful for sensitive...

i have observed that the failure rate of MSI/asrock boards are somewhat higher than other brands like gigabyte. I used to own 2 msi mobos at one point(one for a basic pentium 3 pc,another DG31 board for a c2d setup)-both failed within 3-4 years of usage.

already submitted it for rma as the card was black screening every time it reached 83 C in my tests (while gaming or running furmark). I think something might be wrong with the gpu itself as the same issue resurfaced every time i stress tested it. Lets see how the rma goes-will post updates here.

My zotac 3060 ti which is around 3 years old,has been crashing when the gpu temps go above 80 degrees C. I observed this recently while playing a UE5 based title which caused the gpu temp to spike during gameplay. As soon as the temp rose to around 82 C the system crashed with a...
