So I went out and bought an AMD Radeon R9 290 made by sapphire I got it from Newegg for a whopping 209.00 free shipping CAD . I'm like sweet! It arrived before paypal even displayed the funds were spent! Like I bought it last night and got a call from Purolator that it had arrived.
Now to the question.
I installed it into slot one of 2 pcie slots and with my thermaltake 550w 80+ bronze psu and it's 8pin plus it's 6pin
It starts up fine however 8 mins or so in I get no signal and the fan speeds increase to almost jet engine proportion
Thanks to the lovely people here at Tom's and thinking at first that it's my psu I decided to follow someone's advice and try slot 2 of my pcie
This seams to have worked??? I'm 15 mins into a game and it's fine.
Question is should I be concerned about the mono? What else could have happened Mayne a driver???
