I have a XFX 7950 DD and it has been causing me problems. I shall list them below.
■ High tempratures at idle and load in a room with an ambient temp of 12c or under. Idle is 60c+ and load is always above 75C at stock clocks in a case with good airflow.
■ Poor performance, the card is massively under performing and is performing worse than my old 5770.
■ The most recent problem is that it fails to start. this first happened today. I turned the computer off because it was not in use then when i turned it on 1 hour later it didn't show the bios and the screens were blank. Sometimes it would shut down after 10 seconds and start up. After failed attempts to turn it on i removed the graphics card and used the on board graphics and it booted fine. after this i installed the graphics card and use the other connectors on my psu and it booted. I then reverted to the original configuration and it booted again. I really do not know what the problem could be. Is the gpu? or something else. I really need some help as i have invested alot of money on this rig which i cant afford to lose. All help is greatly appreciated.
