There are two 3.0 slots on the back of my PC and none in the front, which is why I need the extension. Trying to google this quesiton only brings up places to buy a 3.0-specific cable. Thanks! Edit-- I'm dumb, and didn't read the thread. The last few posts on page 3 answered this, there are extra pins on 3.0 that wouldn't be there on an older extension cable.

So today at work I came across a CAD lab with workstations that had two Quadro cards, but only one monitor. The second card has no displays connected. It came from Dell this way. Can a computer utilize a graphics card's processing power or VRAM without being connected?

Hm. I guess I didn't realize you could SLI without a bridge like the olden days. Thanks!

super fart shooter posted:I think my old GPU is done for, it seems to be outputting video, but the only at a tiny resolution, and the image is all hosed up with green lines. Not the end of the world, but I'm hoping I can just switch over to my Intel integrated graphics for now The trouble is, I'm having a problem getting into my UEFI setup right now. If I just physically disconnect the GPU, and switch the DVI cable over to the motherboard output and boot, should the computer default to integrated graphics? That's going to be a case-by-case basis depending on motherboard, but generally yes if you don't have a GPU in the PCIe slot, your onboard should display by default

Hard to say for sure, but a new power supply should be less than $20-- worth a shot to replace it.

You are probably right about the Mobo headed downhill. The USB issues would be that or power supply.. How old is your PSU?

Z the IVth posted:Can a amateur hobbyist reproduce these ultra small form factor PCs cheaply or will it always be a matter of buying them pre-assembled? Is there any possibility of attaching a graphics card to it? You'll never get one that small that's not proprietary. Sometimes Dell is able to fit a laptop-version of a graphics card into that form factor. You could also look at an upgraded NUC like Hades Canyon You could build a Mini ITX system but the miniaturized components come at a steep cost, plus you've got to be a lot more aware about cooling and cable management.

No problem just hooking them in loose if you have the cables. Don't move them around while powered

How much extra money? That's the only difference? Do you have a Wifi6 router? If you plan to use the wifi it's a good upgrade, you could get an M.2 or PCIe card for $30-60 though

I've used DriveSavers in the past, similar no-recovery no-charge policy. Every scenario is different, but they wanted to charge close to $2k for a single desktop drive and we didn't go for it. A few years ago I sent them a hosed 6-disk RAID 0, from which they were able to recover all 2TB of data for a handy $7k.

Some motherboards will disable the onboard port if there's a GPU installed. Also, you could have an HDMI port on your mobo but not the right processor to run it. Are you for sure plugging into the graphics card port?

Steam Link hardware is good and cheap, especially hard wired ethernet. Otherwise you can hook up a computer and stream to that if you sign into Steam on both.

Can you just do the Scan for New Hardware option in device manager? That works if you've ejected from the system tray, not sure about the WD software

Yep that'd be a fine solution. I don't think it will matter much if it's plugged into the wall vs an extension cord / power strip. When setting it up look for Bridge mode

Do you have the Armory Crate app installed and is it fully up to date? Same with MyASUS. Those two handle the iGPU/dGPU handoff along with a lot of other power and device management stuff

Windows 10 has an annoying bug with my Surface where it will do what you describe, only it's not actually frozen. The monitors wake up and the lock screen shows ( with accurate time that updates), but nothing I can do will make the lock screen go away. You can click or type whatever and nothing. After a minute or two it will finally work and unlock/ allow me to log in. Might not be the same bug you are experiencing.. when it happens to me the mouse always works to move it around, it's just clicking does nothing.

Something definitely sounds fucky, it shouldn't swap GPUs without being sent that command from either Armory Crate or the OS. Is your bios up to date? There's a dedicated subreddit for the g14 and g15 that might have more suggestions specific to your computer

Qubee posted:Ever since I bought my monitor back in 2018, it's always had a weird issue. Sometimes when I boot up my PC, the monitor takes a sliver of screen from the middle and puts it to the far left of the monitor. I notice it if I move my mouse to the exact point where the middle has been taken out, I'll see my pointer become short and squat and the bit that's missing will be on the left. My dell high-refresh gsync monitor does the exact same thing. I noticed the line out of the middle but never looked at the sides, and sure enough the line of pixels is over there on the right when it happened today. Interesting how this issue crosses brands, I wonder what the commonality is or if it's a software bug.

So for a NUC like that, if you plug it into PCIe does that interact with the host computer at all of does it just draw power from that port? I've never looked up the use case for that form factor

Dell AC511 is an okay option. It gets plenty loud although compromises on sound quality due to the form factor
