Asked By GamerDude42 On

I'm a bit confused about my graphics card setup. Should I connect the PCI cable from my power supply to my graphics card? I heard there's a wire from the case that should connect to the GPU as well. I'm trying to run a stress test, but Kombuster is only recognizing my graphics card, not my GPU. Any guidance would be appreciated!

To clarify a few things: yes, you need to plug the power cable from your PSU into the GPU. Also, make sure your GPU is seated properly in the PCIe slot, and when connecting your monitor, use an HDMI or DisplayPort cable plugged into the graphics card, not the motherboard. That should help with any recognition issues in Kombuster!

Yes, you definitely want to connect the PCIe cable from your power supply directly to your graphics card. It's essential for it to get power. However, I'm curious about what you meant regarding the wire from the case. Are you talking about a specific cable? And just to clarify, you only have the one 3060 Ti, right? That's the only card Kombuster should be recognizing.
