I don't mean to sound condescending, but the way you phrased your situation is kinda off to me: have you connected your monitor to the 260X output display ports? Make sure that your PSU can also handle the additional power draw, and make sure you've plugged the 6-pin pcie power plug to the card properly, if you haven't. Again, I'm just mentioning these things because you didn't mention any of these.

When I connected the monitor to the card, it only gave me a blank screen. I used the transformer to make the card compatible with my VGA monitor.

Everything seems to be in the right place, unless I need to plug in the Crossfire Strip.


Edit: I am an idiot. Forgot to plug in the pcie power.
