I'm RMAing the card today, claiming there is a problem. I believe its a problem with a hardware, since there is no fixes, even if its just them tweaking the bios. They SHOULD be able to fix the card.

This would involve throwing more money at the problem by buying vista and upgrading. Also some time clean installing, installing and reinstalling. Theres no way to complete this in Win 7? Also how does that fix the VGA? It only configs the ram and cpu, and I've had no real problems with those...

Possibility that this card is overclocked ect crashing? I don't want to RMA it to have it come straight back. Will it void my warranty if I try to tinker with it with rivatuner?

I have a new systems build that crashes whenever I attempt 3D applications (games, movies, rendering ect) . I am however using this computer to type this right now, no problems.(2d applications seem safe) I have used ATI TOOL, Speedfan, CPUID, 3D marks to attempt to diagnosis the issue to the...

My main question i sort of got off track was it says +3.3V, but it says +3.39V in CPUID HWMONITOR. Random question, im currently having GPU issues and trying to trace the issue

No i have not tried it on another person's system, No accessibility. My card does have two PCI power connectors attached so it is not a power issue. None of the LEDs are lit (besides when the computer starts up of course) The card fails clock tests, it passed mark 3d test with 11000 marks but...

CPUID lists my +12V running at 11.99 ( understandable) but lists my +3.3V running at +3.39? Is this something to be worried about or is it just me overreacting :O What do these numbers mean? 12V of course is a 12 amp rail but whats the other :$

Thanks :), random question anyway

I know my ATI 4890 is defective, however, I would like to know if it will still run until i get it repaired by asus. I still need it currently. It is running at standard temperatures however, its memory is apparently defective because i get BSODs when running more graphically intense programs...

It seems since I mailed off the mail in rebate already (doh) i can't RMA it... How Long does the ASUS Replacement warranty take?

a 750 Watt corsairs. I'm Sad now... I sent off the rebate already , does this mean I can't RMA this piece of junk. Do i have to go through ASUS support or their RMA process? Is there any definite way to know that my card is defective? It can run FINE just web browsing ect but it dies no...

i might get a 5XXX, but No way I could afford 5850, would require me wait numerous months :$, a 5770 is comparable in price but its only 128 bit. I won't be overclocking excessively. Would a nvidia card be more cost effective or just stay ATI 4890? or a 4870?

my new system with my ASUS 4890 card I think is defective... It has failed twice in ATITOOLS stress test at about 8 minutes. It doesn't run certain games and fails at modern warfare 2 at random times and goes to a blank color screen, (brown, white, black, blue ect). and loops the sound. It...

Sorry, but might seem as a dumb question. I'm sorta new to this. If i install a ati 5870, later a card with direct 11 support, and crossfire it with the 4870 would that work lol? Sorry if it seems dumb My build is the same as stated above except i changed it to a Asus P577D EVO board...
