No Sensor Readings On Second 290x

[PoLoMoTo]

This might have been covered before but I have no idea what to google so I'm just gonna post it here...  I put in a second 290x today and now theres no sensor readings on the first one.  It's probably worth noting that the original 290x is now actually the second as I put the new one above it.

 

 

Is this normal??  I don't remember my 6950s doing this....

The second GPU is off - it'll automatically shut off to reduce power draw. I bet if you launched a game that supports Crossfire, it'll start up.

This is a ULPS thing.

 

You can disable this with afterburner in order to overclock the card etc, but I'd recommend leaving it on once you're using the card normally.
