A:AnswerIt's not a MB connector as those are 8 pin (4 12 volt power on one side and 4 ground connections on the other) it is a GPU 6 pin connector. Yes you should use the 6 pin power as the card is rated at over 75 watts of power. The standard 16x PCIe slot is rated at 75 total watts and the extra 6 pin power connector provides up to another 75 watts of power. If you run any gaming software or anything that causes the card to work harder (thus drawing a higher power demand) it will go over the 75 watt power draw at the motherboard and could cause damage to the card or motherboard or both. The card comes with a Molex 4 pin to 6 pin adapter so as long as you have a power supply that can handle everything you have now plus another 75 to 100 watts of demand you should be okay. I hope this helps.
A:AnswerActually, the fan is not noticeable to me. I replaced a Radion RX-270x dual fan card with this one (I needed a Display Port). This newer single fan card is maybe 1/5th as loud as the 270x. Most of the time, it is silent and I hear it only when it is rendering some big job in Photoshop. This time is the only time I ever hear it.
A:AnswerThe price of popular graphics cards is rising due to the outbreak of cryptocurrency mining. In an effort to meet demand and increase supply, prices have been increased.
A:AnswerWell the best opinion I could give is that you need to try it yourself, if it work u good to go but if it's not, u probably need to change mobo
A:AnswerI do not know about the i5 7400 but I have 16 gbs of ddr 3 ( used to have 8 worked fine ) so I think 8 gigs will be fine I use it for games like ark. And other games that have some impact I use mine in a office computer and it seems to be fine I even have a 350 w and it works great but again I have a semi old pentium CPU from intel but it should be fine I see no reads on why it would not work .
A:AnswerThey Are Not hashing as they should. They Don't Bios Well. Use AMD beta block chain driver. Would Recommend Rx 570. Go To Buriedone.com for specs and hashrate for most AMD and invidia cards.
A:AnswerI upgraded to a 550w power supply when I bought this card because I know I'll probably get a different card in a couple of years. It might be worth considering since the Corsairs go on sale quite frequently. But, depending on your current one, you might not need to.
A:AnswerIf you have an option to use dual graphics mode, it might work. I've read a few things online about the chip A10-7800. I guess it's also possible that it might conflict with the on chip graphics and slow it down. Maybe r7-250 might pair with it.
