Hi,
I just bought a RX480, after installing with CD I get some glitters, so I updated to latest Drivers and reboot. But I get a grey screen like this just after the MSI logo :

What does it mean...? don't tell me it's dead pls
Maybe it's because of my Power Supply :
Fortron Raider S - 550Watts
550watts is maybe not enough... but it worked before the update...

Thanks !


PS : I'm using now my old HD7950, works like a charm

I have both a RX480 and RX470 (in different rigs, of course) that do this. Both are connected to a KVM and switching displays on the KVM resolves this.

The GPU is not dead (or dying). Seems to be related to a power saving setting related to the RX4XX GPUs/drivers.
