    120V PSU Question

    I have a HPE ProLaint with one of those 200V-240V PSUs so I know I can’t use them on 120V power. My question is, if I get the 100V-240V PSUs instead can put them in, will that work? It only matters that the input side is rated for 120V and then it’ll work, no?

    Why are AMD RX 580 and RX 590 everywhere now online?

    I mean, all of the sites are gushing over them. They look like a competitor to the mid to lower end of Pascal and we're now on 2070's with AMD. Why are all the big tech sites pushing what's an old technology?
