  1. Hello all! I have an ASrock Z97 Extreme 6 with 32gb DDR3 1866 Ripjaws x, a 256gb Toshiba m.2 pcie 3 drive, an i7 4790k, and an R7 240 as a temporary gpu. When attempting to power on the system with any power supply I have available, the PSU fan will spin for a quick milisecond, then stop. I know the PSUs work, as they boot my other systems just fine. Ive made sure there's no corrosion, or any pins that are super bent. All the cables are fully seated. No obvious capacitors bursting or anything. All peripherals I plug in light up, but the motherboard just doesn't power on and start the system. I cannot tell what's wrong. Changing the CMOS or leaving it out doesn't help. When the PSU fan starts and stops, and I try to press power again, nothing will occur, requiring me to turn off and on the PSU again to reproduce it. There is no fan spin. Changing the bios doesn't seem to affect anything. Any ideas?
  2. My keyboard backlight, as in the title, won't turn on. All the keys and special functions work. The brightness keys for the keyboard display on the screen that the brightness is being changed, but the keyboard backlight doesn't respond. The caps lock key still shows the activation light too, so I think its a software issue but I don't know. All the software is in place and so are the drivers.
  3. Hello! I recently wiped my drivers and installed the latest AMD drivers for windows 10 64 bit. However Crossfire doesn't show up as an option even though I'm on an r9 295x2 and the drivers detect and display both cards. Is there a secondary setting I need to enable? Thanks!
  4. I'm currently planning out a build with an NZXT Hue+ controller I have. However I'm struggling to find nzxt hue+ LED strips. Anywhere I could find some? Thanks!
  5. Hey y'all! I wanted to replace my r9 295x2 radiator with a 360mm from a 120mm, but I was confused on how I would refill the card since its an AIO cooler. Would I pour coolant down one tube while the card is running so it refills the radiator and then close the loop? I'm new to liquid cooling so I've got little clue as to what I'm doing.
  6. No I only have one. And I do mean GPUs. Its just a bad habit.
  7. So when Im playing games such as war thunder, i usually get about 90 to 100 fps. However at random times my gpu will drop to 24fps and hold there for about 10 to 20 seconds. The card the game utilizes will always be at full use when this happens, so I think it may be that the game or drivers switches over to the other card for a short period. However it might just be a driver issue. Im on 15.201.1301-V2.1 for the driver version, as new drivers tend to crash my pc to a black screen. Specs are: Ryzen 7 2700x 16gb DDR4 (2400mhz I think) R9 295x2 Gigabyte Gaming X370 board (Not Gaming 5 or anything, just Gaming) 256gb M.2 3tb WD Green EVGA 1000W Supernova
  8. Hey there, So my PC will randomly black screen at times, and requires me to restart it. After that, the crashes come quicker and quicker unless I let my pc sit for a while. I've updated the drivers, and ensured my PSU was more then necessary to power my system. However when I swap out my r9 295x2 with my 270x, I no longer get blackscreens, just that every time i load up a game and start playing my drivers will crash. Im thinking it may be the drivers, as both cards worked perfectly fine before recent drivers. Im going to try using an older driver set from a cd I have.
  9. So for a loooong time I've been having issues with the onboard ethernet port, where it would be unable to identify the network. Usually this would be rectified by a simple restart or a reinstall of drivers. However today it totally stopped working, either failing to identify a cable plugged in when one is, or getting stuck at identifying network. Even after a windows reset, reinstalling drivers, trying to use default drivers, flushing dns, resetting tcp/ip, and trying different cables/switches, the issue persists. I've put in a ticket with gigabyte about it, and I wanted to check here for any other users who had this issue and found a solution.
  10. Im on a worse psu, so i wanted to disable the second card till i get back to a better one. Anyway to do this?
  11. My current rad is quite beat up from it's original owner, and so I wanted to replace it. Is it possible to replace the 120mm with a 240mm rad?
  12. Yep crossfires working. It just stops if I tab out of a game.
  13. Sure. I'll download unigine here while I'm testing out some others.
  14. Recently I got the right crossfire drivers for my r9 295x2. When I enable crossfire though in War Thunder, I've noticed ill only be using 10 to 15 percent of the second card. Is this some sort of feature that can be disabled? My r9 270x crossfire never had said issue.
  15. I wanted to throw an extra card in JUST to handle my other monitor so that I can further optimize performance. I currently have an r9 295x2 and Ryzen 7 1700x running. I have an RM 850i PSU. Would I be able to add one of the cards I mentioned in the title without power issues?

    Welp, First time ive had to call in sick. Hopef…

    Oof man. hope you get better soon.
  17. Latest AMD drivers didn't have them, and I would like some for my r9 295x2.
  18. I have an r9 295x2, and when I try to enable crossfire in the latest drivers, nothing shows up. It doesn't naturally use both gpus either, leaving one to do nothing. Any older drivers that work?
