I tryed it in someone else computer but it didn't work but it had the same power supply has me so there is only two outcome possible : not enough watt or broken card
-
I'm gonna try it later today.

Before selling me the card ; the guy who sold me it went to a shop to make them verify if it worked properly and it did;Well i mean that's what he told me he could have lied too.

I don't have a 8pin I use a 6pin + 2pin as a 8pin and what does daisy link means?

I did tried to install the last version of catalyst but it didn't change a thing;I'll try installing the 13.12 tough and see if that works but I'm winth Win 10 so I don't know if this driver version is compatible with it I'll look before installing it and yes I can install Windows in the first place since this computer is a year old and I just bought the R9 so windows was already installed;Thanks for the try

I did put the PCI-GPU as prefered in the bios (actually for a matter of fact it already was); didn't worked ; I did try the onboard while the R9 was plugged and they weren't showing anything too . I did read indeed that the cx wasnt really good for that kinda stuff .Thanks for the recommendation and the pcie part of the card is clean when i look at it and i tried all my pcie port so ; except if there is tape in all of them ; that probably isnt the case . Thanks for the try tough

Hi guys!I just bought a Saphire R9 290; and basically it doesn'twork! (how so great!). My symptoms are pretty simple; When I put in the GPU and open up my computer I get a black screen, nothing appears on it.No HDD activity neither only the fan spins; except that the computer basically isn't working nor displaying anything.When Iget the card out of my system and get on the on-board graphics it works perfectly fine! After lots and lots and lots of research and tentative of weird methods found on obscure forums I think I have find the reason for this problem; I think my PSU doesn't have enough wattage and that would explain why when it needs to give some to the GPU it doesn't have enough anymore to run everything! The fact Saphire recommend using a 750 watt power supply with that card kinda make me pretty sure it's indeed that problem! although before buying another one I wanted to make sure with you guys that you wouldn't have any other Idea or if you believe that it is, indeed, a wattage problem? -i5 4690k @ base clock -4x4gb of g.skill sipjaws ddr3 @ 1333mhz -H60 -GYGABYTE GA-Z97-GAMING 3 Bios version ; F6 (most recent) -Intel 730 series 240GB SSD -Corsair CX600 600 watts -Windows 10 64 bits and let's hope in a soon future a working R9 290 haha. Thanks for any help you can give me! Oh and sorry for my bad english ; ain't my mother tongue y'know?
