Hello,
First of all, here are my system specs:
- Intel i7 920
- Mobo Intel DX58SO
- DDR3 12GB Kingston RAM
- Cooler Master v650 PSU
- Windows 10
- New MSi R9 390
I just received my new MSi R9 390 so i plugged it in my computer (plugged in the first PCIe slot, with the 8-pin and 6-pin connectors both from my PSU - i didn't use the adapter that came with the gpu) but it ain't working. I have installed the drivers provided in the CD that came with it but it didn't solve the issue (duh...) Here's in detail what happens when i power on my computer:
1- I press the power button.
2- The fans of the processor, the case, and the graphics card start spinning (all the lights also light on).
3- I wait 3-5 seconds without any signal in the monitor.
4- Then there is about 5 seconds where the monitor receives a signal
5- After, the monitor stops receiving signal, and nothing happens (i have waited 10 minutes and nothing happened)
One thing to note is that normally, when my computer "is going to boot", i can hear the fans of my processor reving to about 80%, then going down to a quieter level. With the r9 390 installed, the fans of the processor stay at 80%.
What can i do to make my new graphics card work on my computer?
P.S. I am using the exact same setup right now (with an Asus hd 6570 rather than the shiny r9 390) to write this thread. Therefore, there is a very high chance that everything i am currently using is in perfect working conditions.
