If you're buying new, I'd recommend a RX 480 8GB. You can get an aftermarket one off of newegg for ~$250.

I really hope this hype train with zen/vega amounts to something because we need competition.

You could start by posting a picture of your task manager and a little more detail on what's being run on your computer.

Double check and make sure the display cable is plugged into the RX 480 and not the mobo. If that's not the issue, go into the BIOS and make sure the computer is using the RX 480 as the main display device (it should do this automatically though).

Sounds to me like Windows did the retarded thing where it put your bootloader on the WD drive, and the rest of its' files on your SSD.
 
Did you by chance install Windows with more than just the SSD installed? IE: was the WD HDD plugged in during install?

I'm not sure what a BCD is, but if I rebuild it on my SSD, would Windows boot without my HDD?

I'mma steal this from a thing I wrote a while ago:
 

Thanks for the help man!

I'd take the option two and upgrade the processor. Loophole here I am.

Why? You are better off selling the 1st 480 and, with the money you'd spend on a second one, get single 1070. Avoid multi GPU solutions if you can avoid them.

I wonder why they never send something like that my way  

I made a post like this a while ago, don't know where it went though. 
 
So, here's the one i made for that
 

 
And another i made recently for another forum thread.
 

 
EDIT.
Thanks, Linus. For dissing me on the livestream! I did forget to say that the top one was pretty terrible though

Hi all,
As we all know the Xbox one S released for presale this week check it here http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&sku=A9022102&dgc=BA&cid=302657&lid=5756798&acd=12309224740360116c99817963&ven3=178203472718995289
And it is selling or $399 for the 2tb version. My question is that you know that this console can run 4k at HDR and you have to build a $1000+ PC to have the same performance as this console thus, WHAT GPU DOES THIS THING HAVE? I mean like its so cheap for 4k gaming????? You can barley make a 1440p gaming PC with this price. I have no clue. Thanks in advanced!

Ok. I did a SLI guide and now time to do a vRAM/memory bandwidth guide. A lot of people seem to be confused about vRAM in general. Well, here we go.
 
Let's clear up some misconceptions about vRAM! 
 
 
What does vRAM size have to do with gaming?
 
 
Bonus: What happens if I don't have enough vRAM that a game asks for for certain settings?
 
 
And now resolution, Anti Aliasing and operating systems
 
 
And now about multiple monitors
 
 
Now, onto memory bandwidth and memory bus and such. You may wanna skip this if you know already and are only here for the vRAM size portion above, but I might as well be thorough if I'm doing this. Spoiler tags save the day!
 
vRAM types & memory clocks
 
 
Next, memory bus and memory bandwidth!
 
 
Extra: Memory bus + mismatched memory size section
 
 
And the GTX 970 gets its own section! Hooray!
 
 
FAQ
 
 
Windows 10 and nVidia 353.62
 
 
Final tidbits and stuff
 
 
I started writing this guy mainly for the top section, to denounce misinformation people seem to have regarding vRAM and its relation to memory bandwidth, but I figured I might as well just go the full mile and explain as best I can about what most people need to know about GPU memory anyway. If I've somehow screwed up somewhere, let me know. I probably have. I'll fix whatever I get wrong. And thank you to everyone who has contributed and corrected things I didn't get right! Unlike my SLI guide, much of the information here was confirmed post-writing.
 
If you want the SLI information or the mobile i7 CPU information guide, they're in my sig!
