Specs:

CPU: Intel i5-4690K
PSU:Seasonic 750W PRIME Titanium
Mobo: Asus z97-AR (BIOS: 2801)
RAM: 16GB Corsair 1866 MHz
SSD: Crucial MX300 750GB

I bought a RX Vega 56 today to replace my old R9 280X.

I used DDU in Safe Mode to completely remove my driver. I inserted my RX Vega 56 in the first PCI-E slot. When I tried to install the driver in Windows, it said that no AMD card were present. I went into my BIOS, and checked under PCI-E. It said "Not present"

The card lights up. (The fans are not spinning, but I guess that is because it is not above 55 degrees)

What I have tried, to no success.

Checked every cable.
Tried the second PCI-E slot.
Cleard CMOS by removing the battery.
Changed the graphics in UEFI to PEG and PCI-E
Tried both PCI-E gen2 and gen3.
Tired the second bios on the RX Vega.

If I insert my old graphics card, R9 280X, it gets detected and I am able to install the driver.

If its still in the 30 day return period I would suggest sending it back. Get a new replacement as it sounds like the card is DOA. Just be sure your not using an adaptor to VGA as the newer cards are all digital.

Okay, I'm gonna send it back.
No, I'm gonna use DisplayPort. I have a freesync monitor. So I was really looking forward to try RX Vega, since the R9 280x does not support freesync in gaming.
