    R9 380 recognized only as "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter"??

    I actually finally got it to work a bit ago. Instead of uninstalling or deleting the basic adapter in the device manager, I disabled it. Then I deleted all catalyst software, ran DDU, restarted, and it finally recognized my 380 and downloaded the driver. I'm not sure why you have to disable the...

    I recently purchased a used FX-8350 and M5A99x EVO R2.0 mobo, and a new Sapphire Nitro 4gb r9 380 for my first non-APU build. I hooked everything up and it booted fine, and I can get on the internet and basic things, but should I try to do a GPU-intense program my screen goes black and it...

    A8-6600k possible dual graphics?

    I have 8gb 2133mhz ram downclocked to 1866 since the a8-6600k is only rated to 1866 (bios automatically recognized it as 1866 too so I didn't want to screw with it)

    A8-6600k possible dual graphics?

    So i recently did a build with an AMD A8-6600k APU for light gaming and CAD use but I have found its laggy even on medium settings in far cry 3 (all medium settings, high 20s low 30 FPS). I don't game much but I did expect more from the APU. I'm considering adding an HD 6670 card as they are...

    500W PSU enough?

    I'm slowly piecing together a build to run Cad/Inventor/etc. (if I use for gaming, it will be games like portal 2 or something, not any high quality titles) by picking up items as I find them on sale, so far I've purchased: Motherboard: ASUS A88X-PRO FM2+ / FM2 AMD A88X (Bolton D4) HDMI SATA...
