Thanks for sharing what could be the worst it could potentially happen using the same PSU. I hadn't thought about it.
I will monitor the prices between the 6950XT (if it can push through a G9 or similar) and the 7900XT.
If I'm being honest with myself in those 2 years I have the PC, apart from...
Thanks for the answer, folks 🙏
At the time I didn't know that I was going to work remote full time, thus, benefiting from an even wider monitor for both games and productivity. Well, also mainly because I didn't have the money to go all in at the time, on top of the crazy waiting period for the...
Hello :)
I got my PCspecialist desktop back in March 21, I'm not an hard-core gamer (I probably played only D3, D4 and Last Epoch ever since), but I've been thinking about getting a Samsung G9 monitor. I work remotely and I could benefit from the screen size. But probably not the Neo model one...
Thanks for the answer! I thought that was some config that I was missing in the commander pro and simple to solve.
I will give Armory Crate a try.
I'm afraid changing the BIOS, without knowing for sure where it is, could create problems with that loss of warranty bit.
Ever since I bought my desktop I've noticed additional RGB light in the back of the motherboard I believe, that is on even when the PC is turned off.
I've played around with the iCUE, but I couldn't find anything.
Would anyone know why that happens and/or if it's possible to turn if off ?
That's what PCS support told me.
The option is checked by default and it says it's recommended.
I wonder what difference this would make to the situation :unsure: bypass the check I suppose ?
Good to know I ran in the right disk! 😅
I turned off last night after running chkdsk, this morning I re-connected the SATA cables and I booted the machine 3 times...in all 3 the boot went fine. As NoddyPilot has suggested, I will leave DiskInfo installed and run periodically for a while -...
And I will try this tomorrow...better lightning in the room to see what I'm doing it 😅
I should be able to disconnect the cables and reinsert since they are there already. But I will also figure it out the SATA connectors
The first two times I turned on the PC this evening I got the error. In the third and last it went through fine...so I wonder if that's why shows GOOD now

Hi all,
I got the Smart Failure predicted on sata6g_2 message when booting my PC, which I got it on Friday.
I checked some articles online with some suggestions of what to do (run 3rd party software, defrag disk, disable the detection and others). But in any of these cases it was a brand new...
