    Is this 7970 broken?

    Thanks for your concern but all is well. This is not my first rodeo. Just new equipment that I am not familiar with and the lack of manuals makes it more difficult. All is well. My new computer is up and running. Can't wait to see what this 3GB HD 7970 can do! Thanks for letting me hijack this...

    Is this 7970 broken?

    Thanks for the reply. I have a Radeon HD 7970 and it has a 6 and 8 pin power connector. I have no idea which one to use and am having trouble finding any infomation. What's the lowdown on these jacks?

    Is this 7970 broken?

    I am having the same problem. I have been trying to get this new Sapphire HD 7970 into a ASRock p67 Extreme 4 for hours now. I gave up at 12:30 last night and have been trying all morning. I pulled the mobo out and put in the 7970 and it seemed to fit okay but by the time I got it all back in...
