what I did I took my Powersupply which is a Cosair gs800 out of my PC and put it in my daughter's pc then I put the r9 290 in my daughter's PC. Boot it up, install drivers and bam everything work fine. Was able to watch a 45 min Video with not hard lockups. Put everything back in my PC and 2...
The motherboard I had there was 2 versions of it. The Version I have only uses ddr2. The other version uses ddr3.
I had the ddr2 memory from a previous board that had a 1.0 PCIEx16 slot and I had to get a new motherboard with a PCIE 2.0 slot in order to use my XFX 5830.
Just a update the answer is no some older chipsets the R9 290/290x is not compatible. I have to get a new motherboard and of course memory since my old motherboard uses ddr2.
After taking my graphics card and my powersupply and put it in my daughters PC which is alot newer than mine. The r9...
Yes I was doing some gaming and it was the same voltage across. even easytune 6 that Gigabyte has is reporting the same thing except it says it is at 12.110 volts
If I am reading this right it says the 12v, voltage is 12.112 volts.
Also Newegg had received my card back and has approved a replacement. Hopefully they will shipped from their warehouse in Memphis so it can get here quicker.
Yes I always update the bios to the latest one which is the last one that Gigabyte release for my motherboard back in 2012.
My card has made it to California so now I am waiting on hearing from Newegg to see if it was defiantly bad.
Going thru with a RMA right now with Newegg. I was still within their 30 day window so I dont have to deal with XFX in trying to replace my r9 290 that lasted a little over an hour.
I am not really worry about FPS too much as long as they are decent like 40fps and above. 30 is playable too for me. I use to play CS on a dial up connection if that tells you anything. Not a hard core game like alot of folks on here. Just casual. Like the " Oh Pretty" type person.
I have a Gigabyte GA-MA785GM-US2H with a AMD Phenonm II x4 975.
I upgrade my ageing graphics card which is a XFX 5830 to a XFX Black Edition Double Dissipation R9-290A-EDBD.
I had an issue when I first upgrade to the 5830 with the first motherboard I had which had a PCIE 1.0 slot. The...
I would say their RMA process is a little long.
Shipped my card to them on Thursday 4/24.
They received it on Monday 4/28 according to tracking number.
Here from them on Monday 5/5 saying they couldn't find anything wrong with card.
I respond the same day to go ahead and send card back and I...
A few days ago I just started my 2nd rma with them. The first one was on my first 5830. The original fan had gone out and they sent me a new/refurbish heatsink and fan. Problem was it would not fit cause they had discontinue that ver of the 5830 which was HD-583X-ZNFV. So I figure out a way...
Hi I was trying to RMA my video card but I ran into a snag. The one y'all r showing is my old card that I RMA several years ago. I asked this question on the support ticket after I received a RMA number but y'all response take way longer than it should. I haven't sent the card yet cause I am...
Google has big plans. They are planning to put up a bunch of data centers I know cause the company that I work for are making the coils for it. Let me tell you they are not small. They are planning to water cool the systems. I wish they would come to Mississippi but I doubt it will ever...
My mother had here debt/credit card stolen one day and she barley used it. They charge a bunch of winter type gear on it and had it shipped to New York. The company that was doing the shipping notice that my mother lives in Mississippi so they called to ask if she was the one who purchase the...
That is why when I went to look for a laptop for my wife it had to have at least an ATI/AMD graphics card in it. I wanted an AMD processor too but I settle on the Intel core I5. Yes Intel graphics suck in laptops.
I have a 5830 and tried that but it did not work. It seems AMD dropped the bomb on the HD5830. I have a XFX HD5830 which is a upgrade from a Diamond HD3850. The funny thing is if you go to AMD's website and use the wizard they have a link for the 5830 on it which takes you to ver 10.2 of the...
Apparently they will not install on a 5830 for some reason. When you go to AMD website and do the driver selection for the 5830 it takes you to 10.2 vers of cat for some reason. My card manufacture luckily have the 10.3 drivers that work for my 5830.

That is the card they are sending you. Just fyi
What ver of PCI-E do you have on your motherboard. If it is 1.0a or 1.1 you my have issue with the ATI card. There are several people including me who have issues with ATI 5xxx line graphics cards on a ver 1.0a/1.1 PCI-E motherboards Then there are some who don't. Currently the only way to...
I am still thinking its a bios problem but know ECS they are not going to make a new bios just for me seeing that not many peeps are using it now.
Right now I am using it but if I reboot I will have to reset the bios again to get it to post. I never really had this much trouble before out...
ya I can boot if after I clear the cmos just bought another power supply so I ruled it out. If I reboot then it would not post unless I clear the cmos again.
But after doing some reading and looking apparently I can not run this card on my motherboard with out cheating a little. Apparently...
I recently purchase a XFX Radeon HD 5830 as an upgrade for my 3 year old Diamond Radeon HD 3850. It was in my price range and I like having the lifetime warranty for it. The issue I am having is installing it.
When I put the new card in it would not post, but when I remove my creative...
Um when I was there I think it was standard long distance charges which was around 10 cents a min. That was back in 1991-1992.
They must have moved 1/15 FA to Hovey cause it use to be on Camp Casey. I was assigned to that Unit when I was there but I was attached to HHC 1st BDE and then...
