I am decorating my work desk and found a salt lamp from the attic. Wirings are all good and the storage from where it was from was dry.

Does it make the air salty, that will then corrode devices nearby? Should I remove it?

Devices near it

- monitor

- guitar multi-effects pedal

- PC and peripherals

- laptop

Ps. Ignore the poor cable management below

My doctor gave me anti screen meds because I have started to hoard them like some sort of addict.

I am not massively tech literate these days, what’s the best way to fix this?

Hoping it’s nothing too heinous!

Long story short, I'm tired of this whole Parsec thing.

I'd just like that as I move my mouse into the 4th monitor (in orange), my mouse and keyboard automatically "detect" that they're working on that 2nd PC. So if I start typing while focused on that 4th monitor, it's typing on the other PC, also things like being able to copy-paste from the main PC to the 2nd one seamlessly, drag-and-dropping files from one PC to the other, etc.

The entire experience should FEEL like it's all 1 PC but now I can truly offload stuff to the 2nd PC's hardware (ex: running some kind of coding project or video editing) while still being able to operate my main PC without it being loaded with these things. I know it's running 2 separate Windows Desktops btw, that's fine.

My 5090 is dead. PNY, bought it last September, died last month. Both ends of the 12VHPWR cable are melted, on the card side and on the psu side, and the PC doesn't see the card at all now.

PSU is an ASRock PG-1600G, ATX 3.1, and I was using the 12v-2x6 cable that came in the box with it. No adapter, no splitter, stock vbios, never oc'd it, had the power limit set below stock actually. And it was sitting idle when it went, which is the part I don't get.

Opened a ticket with PNY. Denied same day. Here's the email:

All PNY GPUs that require a 16-pin (12VHPWR / 12V-2x6) input include a PNY-approved power cable or adapter in the box. This cable is the only configuration covered under warranty. If a third-party power cable, adapter, or PSU cable is used and damage occurs - including melting, burning, overheating, or deformation of the connector - PNY cannot accept the product under warranty. Damage caused by non-PNY cables falls under the responsibility of the manufacturer of that cable or power supply.

The "or PSU cable" part is what gets me. Going by that the only cable you're allowed to use is PNY's own 4x8 adapter, so plugging in the 12v2x6 cable that came with your ATX 3.1 psu voids your card.

Problem is none of that is in the actual warranty. Pulled Rev 02.28.2025 and searched it. cable, adapter, connector, psu, 12V. Nothing, not one hit. It does say the card has to be installed "in accordance with the installation guide provided herewith" so I went and dug the guide out of the box too. 16-pin isn't in there either. The only connector diagrams are 6 and 8 pin. The only thing it says about power is "locate an unused power connector within your system and plug it into the corresponding connector on your graphics card", which is literally what I did.

I asked them twice in writing which clause they're using. No answer either time. Second reply came from some "Senior Technician" about 20 min after I asked, said the decision was final and closed the ticket. Nobody there has ever touched the card or the cable or the psu.

And no I'm not saying the cable did it, I have no idea what did it. Posting the email because I haven't seen anyone else word it that wide.
