I just received my new GPU yesterday. It's a secondhand bitcoin mining card. VTX 7950 3gb.
I switched it yesterday with my old card (hd 6870), conected 2 6x2 pin connectors from my PSU en started my pc. Nothing... No beep, no screen, only fans, leds and mijn 3 keyboard lights. Starting up with my old card is still possible.
Possible fixes I tried:
- Cmos reset via battery and jumper
- Motherboard firmware update
- Card in other pc (This one did startup untill the windows 8 loading screen. there it hanged. I switched the old card back in his pc, and it needed a cmos reset to work again. Also his 2nd SSD needed a format after this )
- Crossfire switch on the card on 1 instead of 2
- 6x2 pins switched on the card connectors. Tryed 1 6x2 connector. Then it did startup, but no card detected.
Seems almost like a power problem...
My specs:
MB: MSI H61M-E33 (B3)
Chip: i5 2310
Memory: CVS 8GB1333
Storage: SSD 120GB 500/525 Agility3 SA3 OCZ en een HDD
PSU: Cooler Master Real Power M620 620 watt
GPU: Sapp1GB D5 X HD6870
OS: Windows 8
I hope you guys can help me!
