Hi,

I found this 'defect' R9 290, it's pretty cheap. The seller says that it doesn't give a signal, but the fans are still spinning.

So my actual question is, can I use this card for a crossfire setup in my PC? Ofcourse I've got a fully working R9 290 in my pc, but I thought it might be possible to use this card just for the working, and use my own card for giving the signal.

Sorry for my english.

Thanks in advance!

Bob

Just because the fans spin doesn't mean the gpu is actually working, it just means the fans have power, the rest of the card could be as dead as a door nail.
