Hi all, this is a bit of an on-going Saga I'm afraid.
Bought my graphics card:
XFX Radeon HD 5750 - Graphics adapter - Radeon HD 5750 - PCI Express 2.0 x16 - 1 GB GDDR5 - DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort
Link: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B002SOX9W2
For the following set-up:
Intel Pentium 4 CPU 2.80GHz processor,
Motherboard is Ausus LEONITE Version 5.00
PCI-E x16 slot.
Windows 7,
2gb DDR2 RAM,
500 Watt power supply,
PSU make: OCZ StealthXStream2 500w Silent ATX2 Power Supply 80PLUS
Link: http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/components/powersupplies/ocz500sxs2-uk.html?#utm_source=affiliatewindow&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=Driving+Revenue
Now I (or rather my brother, it's his rig) get blank screen from start-up but fan spins on graphics card - so far I've read this could be a power supply issue (which kind of sucks cos I bought the new PSU for the system - maybe if I wasn't such a tightass it would have been fine!! )
As always, I am indebted to you all for your wisdom and technomancy....
Ever need a place to crash in the UK let me know in 6 months to a year or so. But no eating me.
Cheers all!
