Hi Guys.
i have built my first machine over the Christmas holiday and it all went great.....or so i thought.
My Specs:
i7 4770k
Asus z87k
8gb DDR3 Ram
120 gb SSd
1Tb HDD
AMD Radeon Gigabyte r9 270X.
My issue is that i put the machine together and plugged my monitor in.. .no issues booted to windows, i plugged it into the Vga port integrated to the motherboard because i didnt have a DVI cable and wont be bale to get my hands on one until mid next week (so i wasnt going through my graphics card). so windows loaded fine, i have recently started playing games, Skyrim, and getting 10 - 20 fps on low setting :S. I check my device manager and in display adapters it only shows intel(r) HD graphics 4600 and not my 270x. I have tried to install AMD drivers however get an "installation package failure"
The fans spin on the graphics crad so it is getting power however i do know that just because the fans are spinning, it doesn't necessarily mean everything is working.
do i possibly need to disable the intel drivers before install AMDs? i am a bit apprehensive about doing this so i thought i would ask for help here first
What happens when i disable the driver? i assume black screen?
how would i then install the AMd drivers to discover my 270x?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as i am a little lost at the moment.
Thanks
