Brown GPU Cat 67 asked about Intel Core i9-12900K :
Hi, I recently build a pc with an i9 12900k, Rtx 3080 with RGB 10 fans and 2 LIAN LI strimmers with a psu of 850w. When i try to boot up, all of them work except my gpu the fans are not spinning but has rgb. PLEASE help!!

Have you tried running GPU intensive programs to see if the fan spins? Some GPU has zero fan movement when its under low load. That might be 1 of the reason it is not spinning.

Hi! How much watts do I really need (without overkill) for i9-12900k + (potentially) GTX 3060? It says minimum of 550.

Are these 2 a good combination? With the ASUS TUF Gaming Z690-Plus WiFi D4 LGA 1700 Intel 12th Gen ATX Gaming Motherboard- PCIe 5.0, DDR4,

A very good mother board, but the cpu... it depends on which one of those 12th gen do you gonna use. If you put a i3 12th gen on that MB, yes it will work, but it's such a wasted. While you can put i7/i9 12gen on that and has the best performance for both cpu and MB

HI Will your recommendation of minimum a 700w PSU when having a i9 12900k/RTX 3080 still remain when doing a soft OC? I have a RM750x PSU and I am a bit worried if it can handle it.
Brown GPU Monkey 76 wrote on 15/08/2022 :
for this you need an 850w psu, i think you can upgrade to rm850x

I wouldn't try a OC if you have 750W to work with. Especially if the CPU and GPU requires at least 700W.

is 1000w ok for core i9 12900k and geforce rtx 3070 master?
Purple GPU Unicorn 23 wrote on 02/03/2022 :
Easily enough power. You actually have about 300w to spare, for all that extra RGB stuff you you want to cram inside your case.

is 700 watt power supply enough for i9 12900k and rtx 3070ti?
Blue GPU Monkey 45 wrote on 19/07/2022 :
how about 850 is that enough plus all the extra rgb and other mods?
