Hi, I recently upgraded my GPU from a Sapphire Radeon R9 280x Dual-X OC to a Sapphire Radeon R9 290 Tri-X OC but I'm not sure if my computer is recognizing the upgrade. Since both are Radeon R9 200 series, I think it's still being recognized as the 280x though it is running without issues that I can see.
When I use CanYouRunIt, it still ranks my computer with the 280x even if I use another browser or refresh the computer settings on it. Though when I use auto-detect settings in video games, it sets it to the higher graphics settings. I just want to make sure that there won't be any damage to the video card in case the Catalyst Control Center also doesn't notice the change.
I uninstalled the 280x drivers and Catalyst Control Center before taking out the card and downloaded the new drivers from the AMD website when I put in the 290. I've also recently started up the computer in Safe Mode, uninstalled CCC and the video card drivers, used driver sweeper, restarted, and reinstalled the new drivers from the AMD website. Still CanYouRunIt shows the 280x. I'm hoping this is just a problem with the website.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
