minus-squaremarlowe221@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·10 months agoNot only am I with you 100% but I also by all of my hardware used. There just aren’t very many games I want to play these days that require a graphics card that weighs more than a house cat. Most of the games I want to play lately are indies that would run on an AMD APU…
minus-squarehuginn@feddit.itlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·10 months agoAFAIK it can handle all the power totally fine - it’s just very easy to partially connect instead of fully.
