Just murdered my old build and upgraded everything except my harddrive, had trouble with getting display to work until i removed the graphics card.

My Specs:
Motherboard:
Asus A88XM-A
CPU:
Amd A-Series Accelerated Processing Unit AMD APU w/ Radeon R7 Graphics 4.1ghz (4cpu + 8 gpu)
GPU:
MSI Radeon R9 380 4gb 3.0 pci-e oc edition
PSU:
cougar dx 80 plus dx600 600W
RAM:
Patriot Viper 1x8gb DDR3 PC3-12800 1600mhz
HDD/Driver:
im not sure what they are, came from HP back in 2005 if needed i can pull them out and see what they are

The psu should be more than enough if i am not mistaken, not sure where to go from here, only way i can get a display and use the pc is if i just run on the integrated R7 graphics, would the R7 graphics be that much worse than this R9?

Also if anyone knows where a 4-pin wireless internet cord would plug in for power into this motherboard that would be a ton of help!

Hello... Typically IGF means the MB or CPU GPU... intel calls it IGT, and multi IGFX, seems to mean to me that you want multi-CPU/GPU outputs from it B / sorry I'm not a AMD builder to know the exact wording they use, Look in your PDF/Manual for the suggested use.

5) If this is NEW hardware and setup? Just try and re-set/clear the MB BIO's first... start things factory fresh... MB Bio's defaults.

6) ALSO... Just try all the settings... if ya get in trouble just re-set/clear the MB BIO's again. B )

7) reseat the Video card a few times, or try cleaning with rubbing alcohol.
thanks for the reply! It's set to pcie/pci video currently, and my monitor has a auto detect feature

would the igfx multi-monitor setting need to be enabled rather than disabled to run both the gpu and integrated?
