Googling graphics card compatibility, I only get posts or articles related to PCI-E slots and card size within cases.
I recently upgraded my system to an i7-9700K with an MSI MPG Z390 Gaming Edge AC motherboard. Going to the motherboard support website, it says that the VGA supported cards are all MSI branded cards. Granted, it's an MSI board, so I would imagine they would promote their own product, so I'm really only paying attention to the GPU unit itself (RX 580, GTX 1660 Ti, etc.). I have been trying to run a Gigabyte branded Radeon RX 5600XT. According to the support site (https://us.msi.com/Motherboard/support/MPG-Z390-GAMING-EDGE-AC#support-vga ), my card is unsupported. Should I change to an RX580 or other card that is considered "supported?"
I am typing this using that card and the computer seems to run "fine." I say "fine" because every morning, my computer freezes at the logon screen and then restarts itself. I've gone through many troubleshooting steps, all culminating with reinstalling Windows. I've reseated everything, updated drivers, and tried to unplug/replug in everything. I'm not wondering if my GPU being unsupported is the reason why my PC freezes at the logon screen. What's even more puzzling to me is why it would freeze in the morning. The rest of the day, the PC runs perfectly fine and I can restart, shut down, turn on my PC all day long as long as it's not the first start up of the day.
