Hi,
I recently purchased a Sapphire Radeon 5670 graphics card and tried installing it and was unsuccessful. I tried uninstalling the nvidia drivers and it still doesn't get detected. The card is an PCI-Express 2.1 x16, so will it have compatibility issues with my pci-e slot? My motherboard is an ASUS IPILP-LC with an open PCI-E x16 slot for the 5670. My GS 8400 gets detected but not my 5670. My PSU is a Corsair 430w CXV2. Is it possible that the 5670 may be defective even though it powers on (the fan is spinning)?
