Bloody card problems again! after the asus start screen it just goes black.
Anyway fitted the new one and it worked fine for 4 days was playing bf3 on it and it runs as smooth as butter. However today it just won't do anything passed the bios screen just goes black. I've tried everything using driver fusion to delete the intel drivers etc, cc cleaner to clean it up and used device driver uninstaller to wipe the amd drivers and I made sure everything was gone to do with the cards. So I tried again same thing Booted it up on the integrated intel hd 4600 and reinstalled the intel graphics went back did it again and still the same . I'm using hdmi from the card it self to my 19 inch tv in order to get display.
Within those 4 days though I had to do the same process uninstalling the drivers etc and after 2 restarts it would work So I'm still thinking it could be a driver problem but not sure considering I've wiped all of the drivers now, I'm completely stuck at this point and pulling my hair out if it's the card I have no idea what to do I'm not paying to have it rma'd again. Might just buy a gtx 750 ti instead should have got one first to be honest. Any suggestions on how to fix it?

EDIT: Tried deleting everything and I mean everything amd folders using driver fusion to remove the intel hd drivers/ amd drivers, removing the amd driver completely in safe mode using display driver uninstaller. Changing screen resolutions and still nothing, it detects the card because when the driver is installing it says detecting hardware and it's there. But I have to boot it up on integrated first then plug the card in if you plug the card in it won't display even with the vga cable connected into the motherboard, also tried installing the drivers manually. I'm lost at this point and have no idea at all.

In all PSUs the dielectric in the capacitors eventually wears out, so it stops filtering ripple. Ripple wreaks havok on graphics cards. The CXs are built to cut costs using the cheapest secondary caps available and they wear out very fast pushing graphics cards. They are meant for office PCs. Put all that together, look at your symptoms, and there is your problem.
