Since I have gotten my third HD problems have come up. I was wondering if having my 120mm 12v Ultra high output fan, 2 80 mm fans and my video card connected to the same "main line" (rail ?) would be a reason for my video card not performing as well as it used too?

Yea, video cards, especially the higher ended ones, really should be run on a seperate 12v rail. Seems like a waste of a complete rail to me. But seeing as the other one is powering the rest of my rig, I might as well put the extra rail to use on my X850XT PE.
