Okay I just built my PC and am having a terrible time with my GPU. It's a ASUS Radeon r9 290 (new). However it came in terrible packaging, some heatsinks fell off (fixable). I don't wanna say it is completely dead (it is looking that way though) because my PC recognizes it in device manager as an ASUS Radeon r9 290 so... it works right?
Every time I try to use it, it crashes/doesn't boot at all (i.e. whenever I set the primary display to PCIE). Now, after I installed the drivers for some reason when I try to boot (not even selecting it as the primary display) my monitor shows the windows start up but then the screen goes black, there is also a buzz noise I am hearing... I am kinda scared, it's only been a couple of days and it's already dying on me. What do I do here? Any thoughts on this? I wasn't getting any results in the beginning and now all of a sudden it is freaking out on me.
Help GREATLY appreciated!
