ASUS DirectCU II TOP R9 280x don´t boot up

bryangraph · Oct 10, 2016

Hi guys, i have a little problem with my new GPU. Some days ago, i purchased a used graphics card for my PC, the card is an ASUS DirectCU II TOP R9 280x and it worked very well.

But yesterday i tried to power on my PC to use it, but the GPU don't boot up. I don't know exactly what's the problem

This is my PC:

Board: MSI 970a-G46
CPU: AMD FX 8320e
RAM: Zeus 2x4GB 1600Mhz DDR3
PSU: Corsair GS600

One more thing. I had a MSI GTX 660 Ti and it burned on my PC. I'm worried because i don't want the R9 280x burn it too

Hi man, i was reading your situation and i had the same problem. Let me count you. 1 year ago, i purchased an EVGA GeForce GTX 970 SC new on Amazon.com and i installed it on my PC and i was playing very well for 1 week. One day i tried to power on my PC but mi monitor doesn't displays anything. my PC starts very well but the GPU don't boot.

This was my last PC:

MSI Z97 Gaming 5 LGA 1150
Intel core i7 4770
Corsair Dominator Platinum 2x8GB
EVGA GTX 970 SC
Corsair TX 750

I tested it on the PC of my brother and the GPU booted up for 5 seconds and the screen was black again. I was tested the GPU on 5 different PC's and one of my friends told me than my Power Supply was the problem all the time. I had a Corsair TX750 who is better than your Corsair GS600. The final solution was changed the Power Supply, the graphics card and the motherboard. the 6 pin connector of my GTX 970 was damaged thanks to my glorious power supply.

Your problem is exactly the same who i had, and i heared that Corsair GS Series are really bad Power Supply Units. Your sollution is the next; change that motherboard, the Power Supply and the GPU. If you don't change that power supply, you will be burning out all the graphics card than you buy.

So, my R9 280x is died?

But, my old Radeon HD 4350 works very well in my PC, are you shure i need to change the power supply?

That Radeon HD 4350 is a low profile GPU, so, you don't need to plug the 6 pin cable to that graphics card because it use the motherboard energy

Look, you was saying than your MSI GTX 660 Ti burned out with no explanations. And your R9 280x is going in the same way. Your PSU is damaged, and if you don't change it you will be burning all the GPU's than you buy, and in the worst of the cases, you will burn your motherboard.

So, change that power supply and that motherboard. Your GPU doesn't have any solution and if you repair it, you will have the same problem in a short period of time. One of the energy pins of your GPU is damaged and various VRM too. I'm sorry but you need to change that bomb of power supply, the motherboard and the GPU

Yes, i was reading in hardwaresecrets.com and the Corsair GS series are very bad power supply units, they're worse than Corsair CX series and the CX are very bad too. Your power supply will damage any GPU because that power supply don't have the necesary AMP to feed a GPU...

The solution is the next: Change your power supply, your motherboard and buy another graphics card, that is your only solution. You don't have any more to do. The GPU doesn't smell like a burned GPU but trust me, my old GTX 970 had the same problem
