Asus r9 280x not working, stuck on black screen after boot

[nime1312]

Hi Tomshardware

I just bought an ASUS r9 280X GPU. I've changed GPU's before and I know the drill, at least on a basic level, so I can't identify the problem.

At first I completely removed the NVIDIA driver. Next I put in the new GPU. After plugging the card in and turning on the computer, the motherboard display screen (the one that says "Press F2 to enter BIOS Setup" etc.) shows the error code "5A". After a few seconds the screen then goes black, only displaying "0_" in the lower right corner. After this nothing happens on the screen, but all fans keep spinning the system SOUNDS to be working normally. The two green leds above the Power Pins on the GPU light green, showing that th card receives power correctly.

I've tried playing with different BIOS settings and disconnecting both many USB devices and I've also tried unplugging all SATA devices. All of these with no effects.

When I plug back in the old GPU (560 Ti) everything works perfectly fine.

I'd really love any help with this. Sorry if I left out any details, please ask!

Thanks a lot!

SPECS:
Intel DP67BG Motherboard
Intel 2600k CPU
16 GB Ram
Nvidia 560 TI (old gpu) / ASUS R9 280x (new gpu)
Corsair 520 HX power supply
Kingston 120 GB SSD
2 TB WD Black HDD

EDIT: I tried placing the card in the other PCI-E slot. Now nothing even shows on my monitor, not even when I put the card back into the first slot. The error-LED on the motherboard shows the following codes. It hangs on each code for a bit, and after the "cycle" is finished the system just reboots itself and starts over:
26
27
31
33
2b
0d

Here is a list of error codes for the mobo:

EDIT 2: Now it does the same with the old card... no signal to monitor. Nothing. Same error codes cycling. What have I done? :\

So its dec 2015 and i happen to be putting together a family room pc for the kids and streaming when i come across this issue.

I have a dp67bg and r9 270x and i got that black screen error and i have the fix that was previously listed here several times so thank you!

I had to install an older vid card and my r9 270x at the same time.

i used the old card as the main video card installed the drivers for the r9 and than took out the older card and it worked like a charm.

spent many hours trying to sort this out today and very glad i got it fixed.

Thank you all for your help and i just wanted to confirm 100% that this fixes well bypasses the issue so you can use these cards in these intel boards.
