@graf It's just that my computers getting old and I already burnt out one power supply using multiple displays, I'm going to be making more money by going back to my old company and I'm planning on saving for a new rig, I've had this one since 2017.

@graf @JollyWizard I don't know, maybe I had too many peripherals hooked up, it was making a weird sound and then one day it just didn't turn on, cost me a couple hundred bucks so now I'm more cautious around it

@PraxisOfEvil @JollyWizard maybe wore the bearings out in the fan and it wasn't cooling anymore and overheated one too many times BowserNoodle ☦️ likes this. -

@PraxisOfEvil @graf I don't think your monitor count has anything to do with a dead power supply.
power supplies die because of defective components and external surges.BowserNoodle ☦️ likes this. -

@graf @JollyWizard that might have been it, I remember getting the cooling fan replaced as well, it glows blue and is very cool

@PraxisOfEvil @graf @JollyWizard Remember to balance your fan in and out. It keeps the dust down.
