Alright I just installed a bunch of new stuff in my computer, the performance has been okay even with the stupid warning I'm getting, but it is super annoying and frustrating to get it.
When windows boots I get a performance warning that pops up that says " Your graphics board may not be properly supported by the computer's power supply. The clock speeds have been decreased to reduce the power consumption. This may result in slower than expected application performance. Please make sure the appropriate power supply cables are connected to the graphics board."
A few things about my system, I just upgraded the psu. I went on a site with psu calculator punched in all the stuff I had (or would have) in my system. It came up with needing around 520-540 watts or something with a minimum of 400 and whatever. I bought an Antec 650watt PSU to compensate...... so in theory I should have the power
There are 2 connectors on each card, 1 6pin, and 1 8 pin. I know to use AMD overdrive you need the 8pin, and my psu has 2x 8 pin connectors (has a seperate 2 pin to connect with the 6). Since I got this error I tried both, I connected the 8pin to start on both cards, which works fine minus the warning. If I connect the 6 pin when I turn on the computer the fans are turning SUPER fast and I get a system beep error. So I'm left with leaving it on the 8pin.
Originally I also had both crossfire bridges connected, I have since taken one off.... but I haven't seen any change since removing or having the other on.
I just want my cards to run what they should out of the box, not looking to overclock.
Oh ya I have one case fan currently (120mm) I have another on it's way, just wanna be safe in keeping everything cool in there. I can give temps and such from AMD overdrive monitor if needed.
