so got my new graphics card today, been using the build for almost a week with no problems, link for build if it'll help http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2SXtE
anyway... i install the card, install some drivers, and catalyst, seems to be working fine, then i turn up the resolution, and its still working, increase font size, cuz i'm a blind bastard and it tells me to reset computer, kk fine, now i either get stuck in boot loop until i hit to enter bios, when it freezes, or i can get in bios, but nothing is in screen and my screen doesnt refresh unless i mouse over a area, revealing the screen block by block. i dont know wtf to do halp

You have such a nice build but a very poor power supply?

TR-2 supplies are poor quality.

Probably isn't the issue , but i'd replace it when you get it sorted out.



Tier 5 - Other than the units listed above for any of these brands, NOT RECOMMENDED.
Replace ASAP if you have one.

uhh... fixed i guess? i pulled out the psu, and unplugged it from the powersupply, turned the comp back on, it said bios got fucked up, went into bios, reset it to factory settings, and then everything worked, reinstalled my gpu and everythings smooth again?
