nvm I sorted it, should really do so before posting to forums next time

a while ago I picked up these, and until now didn't realise that the DRAM frequency wasn't what it should be. I've never messed with RAM settings in BIOS, lest I break something that I don't understand, though I have OCed my R5 5600X, so I'm not entirely unfamiliar with using BIOS settings, just...

I'm currently trying to reset again, I'm clinging on to the hope that it might work this time, but I'm doubtful Update - it did not. I'm attempting to system restore again but it's not looking good

Imma start from what I assume was the cause, but I don't really know. As my pc is currently out of commission I'm using my phone, so I apologise for formatting. I was unable to install msfs2020 through the Xbox beta app, one supposed fix around this was to disconnect any second monitors from...

sorry it's taken so long to get this sorted, but I have confirmation that the r9-280X does NOT work in my friends rig - same lack of output as my own. I won't be going to CEX again for a GPU, any advice on a reliable, cheap vendor in the UK?

I can ask a friend, it'll take a couple of days, but, hopefully, I'll be back with results :)

The original GPU was NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 2GB integrated graphics work fine.

Didn't realise they were considered separate, but yes that's how I've been doing it. The fans spin, so I presumed power wouldn't have been the problem anyway tbh.

essentially an 8 & a 6 plug into the GPU. I assumed that'd count as a 14 pin, though the two sets are slightly set apart.

My mistake, 2x 6+2 cables for a 14 pin GPU

I'm not saying it's guaranteed, but keep an eye on my thread in case I find a solution, as we appear to have a fairly similar problem, though different parts.

the power supply has 2x 4+2. The GPU is 6 pin. It's awkward to do, but yes, it's been powered correctly.

P8H61-I LX R2.0/RM/SI I this helpful? There's none on that list that match mine.

To give some context to the problem, most of my parts are secondhand, but this is the only isue I'm having, and I've recieved no working solution from various reddit threads. I've replaced the motherboard (with an identical one) and GPU (with a different one) to try and see if that was the...
