    Your long cable had pin 20 live, it didn't meet displayport spec and was feeding voltage from the monitor back into the gpu keeping the system from fully powering off between power cycles and shorting the card when unplugged causing the system to crash.

    Anyone wondering what the issue is:
    I had the same issue before, the cheap cable I bought had the power pin connected (it's not supposed to be, and yes for some reason DP has a power pin) and the monitor is sending power back to my graphics card. I purposely damaged that single pin and now the cable works flawlessly.

    • @neoqueto
      @neoqueto 5 ปีที่แล้ว +91

      Spot on. It's the problematic 3.3v pin 20. With improperly designed cables that have it wired up, an effect known as backfeed can occur. And it can potentially even brick your entire graphics card. At best, it'll keep the RGB on while the PC is unplugged.

      When such a unit is connected, it accepts power only at one side and so you don't get backfeed along the entire setup.
      When pin 20 is active on a cable that just goes monitorgraphics card backfeed occurs, voltage can shortcircuit device on either end and cause all sorts of hell since they don't have the same phase variation on both sides.

  • @MikeStavola
    @MikeStavola 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I started modding cases before this old case was made, so I can give advice on how it would have been modded in the early 2000s. Drill holes in the 3-1/2" bay covers, remove the filters, use higher velocity fans, fit a 96mm fan in the back, and cut intake fan holes in the side cover, using 80mm fans and those chrome wire grilles. You'll need a drill with a cone bit and a hole saw to pull it off. and some server fans. You'll see some decent numbers with cooling, but also the sound of an airliner taxiing whenever you turn it on.
