I've recently got 2 7970s off ebay, £460, for the pair, I'm chuffed.
Anyway, I plugged one in to the top slot of my Asus Sabertooth 990FX board, and it works fine, no issues, so I put the other one in its place, and it too works fine, both cards are working individually.
Now, I put the second card in the third slot to allow space for air movement and removed the first card, works fine, slot OK. I put both cards in, no crossfire bridge, works but does not detect second card.
I attached the crossfire bridge.
Does not detect second card is even there.
I attached crossfire bridges to both connectors, still does not recognise the second card is even there, device manager does not pick it up, nor does catalyst, no option in catalyst to enable crossfire.
There's a switch on both cards next to the crossfire bridge connectors (2 positions, marked '1 and 2' I have tried it in various positions and just nada. No matter which way I try it, windows will not pick up that there are 2 cards connected.
Any ideas?
(I installed all the drives and shit)
Thanks =)
