Hi guys,

I have just got a Radeon 5850 GPU from my cousin. He has been using it and I swapped it out for my Radeon HD 5770. My GPU ran fine on my monitors but now that I have changed it when I play a video or anything on it the screen starts to tear, starting and the top and then moving down the screen.

Does anyone know the cause or how to fix it?
My GPU is currently running at 42 degs C

Thanks

Yeah I have but that hasn't changed anything. Do it make a difference that it is only doing it on 1 monitor?
