  1. Usually it is not a problem but it also depends on the nation I usually ask that the package be marked like I do as RMA so that it will not be questioned
  2. find some ferrite beads and put one on the 120v power cord to start with
  3. it does suggest the commander is on the fritz so use the motherboard and see if you can get it replaced or just use the MB i had one commander die too
  4. only factory installed ferrite filters i have are on video card cables clip on ones are cheap but of questionable value
  5. might be time to reset windows, when devices become problematic its usually indicative of all kinds of woes
  6. not sure why you are using a riser for your GPU rig porn please
  7. Nice to see you were able to get it replaced quickly. PSUs generally are fairly reliable bit the odd one does croak occasionally.
  8. I ended up having to swap out my PSU as the AX860i finally would not POST for more than 60 minutes before it shut down Corsair sent my an HX1000i which has worked fine since. Light on this one alternates red/green as the iCue monitors it.
  9. I have an RM650 and the switching speed is close to the same in the HXi and Axi and even the old TX850V2. Machines that are not bolted together properly can be a tad noisy which I handle with boxes of 1000 screws. Loose wire need to be zip-tied down as well.
  10. The HX and HXi are both compatible with type-3 and type-4 cables aside from the 2x12 which are slightly different due to voltage sense features. My RM650 uses type-4 2x12 which is related to the sense signals used by the more modern motherboards.
  11. I have an RM650 and it came with a pair of pigtail PCIe cables (the ones that have dual connectors) and my PSU has four 8-pin connectors along with three 6-pin peripheral connectors evidently the earlier RM650x has one less than my PSU
  12. https://www.hardcoregames.ca/2021/02/22/corsair-refuses-warranty/ https://www.hardcoregames.ca/2021/02/22/corsair-750d-front-fan-failed/ grievances piling up fast posts never come down, miranda applies for reason
  13. I suggest the RM850 which will have adequate power to handle the RX 6900 XT safely
  14. Beware that the RTX 3080 can use much more power when pushed up to the thermal limit of the machine.
  15. get a better quality power bar with integrated filters which will reduce noise
  16. AX1600 has 10 PCIe plugs leaving one for the EPS12V, so 3 cards are possible but it's a tough load for the machine
  17. i assume you unplugged everything for a minute to be sure its a cold start The TX650w is an older model. The current RM650 (2019) is more efficient and would run your old Z77 fine until you modernize The RM750 and RM850 are also available and video card trends suggest a higher capacity has some advantages. my review https://www.hardcoregames.ca/2019/05/28/corsair-rm650/
  18. Amazon is bad due to the swarm of third party sellers which is why their operate the way they do This is why I deal direct now with primary vendors who at least answer the phone.
  19. I am worse off, my commander is not even turning on the fans
  20. I suggest using some fan extension controllers which can allow all of them to be driver by PWM control
  21. I have the 750D and I have a 3 stack of disk cages. Makes for a large collection of drives. I have an H115i CPU cooler which also pushes some air out the top but the rear fan does most of that work
  22. The fan will eventually come to life, its thermally driven
