    R9 Fury won't POST

    I found the fix for it, I changed my Bois "PCI ROM PRIORITY" to LEGACY ROM from EFI Compatibility. The card is running fine now. Strange though that a new card can only run on a Legacy thing, though. Thanks for the help anyways!

    R9 Fury won't POST

    Are you saying I need to update my MB BIOS to get it to work? I took a look at Gigabyte's page, but it doesn't seem like any of the updates addresses GPU compatibility... http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4327#

    R9 Fury won't POST

    I guess I better just order a replacement then. Hopefully, this is just an isolated incident.

    R9 Fury won't POST

    I know it is my new Fury card is the reason my system is not POSTing as when I took it out the system started fine again as normal, as well as when I put in my old 7950 it worked as well. The fans on the Fury spun even if it didn't POST, however. Is there anything that I could be doing wrong...

    XFX R9 390X or RX480 Nitro for 1440p?

    So an update on this is that I ended up finding a Sapphire Nitro Fury 11247-03-40G for $310 and with the current elevated pricing and unavailability for AIB RX480 and 1060, I figure I might as well pony up some extra dollars to get the Fury at that price.

    Windows 10 Anniversary has Hidden my folders on my Internal HHD!

    Nevermind, apparently restarting the computer did the trick. Can someone delete this thread, please?

    Windows 10 Anniversary has Hidden my folders on my Internal HHD!

    My computer installed the anniversary update, nothing seems to have gone wrong until I tried to use my programs which gave me the error of "unable to start correctly (0xc00000e)" and forcing me to abort. Looking into my Internal HHD which I use for storage, I find it completely empty with no...

    XFX R9 390X or RX480 Nitro for 1440p?

    Wow, thanks for all the quick replies, I didn't expect so much so quickly. As regards to my choices, yes they are not optimal, but I believe that buying a good 1440p w/ freesync monitor would mean I am more or less set for monitors for quite awhile. I have been gaming basically on 1080p 60hz...

    XFX R9 390X or RX480 Nitro for 1440p?

    I was thinking about getting a Sapphire RX480 Nitro to pair along with my new 1440p freesync monitor I ordered, but today I saw on newegg that the XFX 390x is going for about $250 after $30 rebate. Is the 390x still better than incoming RX480 for 1440p? Another concern is that my current PSU...

    How long the i7 3770K will remain useful?

    Don't worry, I think I will be sticking to single GPU step for the foreseeable future for quite awhile. Thanks for all the help!

    Windows 10 "Upgrade"

    Are the features added in the Pro version just not that useful for most users?

    Windows 10 "Upgrade"

    For the longest of time I have been running my Windows 7 from a 335GB HDD I salvaged from an old HP computer I had before I decided to build my own computer with my brother's help. I have a Kingston HyperX 120GB 3K SSD that I never got around to installing since my Windows is er... not...

    How long the i7 3770K will remain useful?

    Well, I haven't really OC'd my CPU, afraid of breaking things accidentally I guess. Have a Hyper 212 EVO as a Cooler so I guess If I have to, I can definitely do some OCing. As for games, used to play Battlefield 4 and Archeage heavily, Now mostly just playing War Thunder and Europa Universalis...
