  1. What if i change the whole logic board? Will that fix it, found one cheap at 50$
  2. is there a way you can wipe everything, install a new rom or whatever the ios equivalent is called?
  3. So, im planning on buying a second hand iphone 8 thats locked with icloud(no clue what that means). Is there a way to unlock it? I read about a few ways to unlock it but they look fake. What do you guys think, is there a way to unlock it 100%?
  4. I found out what the issue was, and its well retarded like on a whole new level... TURNS OUT my mother board acted weirdly with that particular gpu, when i updated the mobo bios it worked i have no idea why but my msi b350 gaming pro just doesnt like r9 290 windforce graphics cards, fuck knows why. And the funny thing is that my buddy has the same mobo and thats why it didnt work on his rig. I got bamboozled by msi hard on this one. Anyway... Thanks for the help guys <3 much love to ya
  5. I took another look at the gpu and i noticed that there was a missing capacitor, and a little yellow mark on one of the black chips on the oposite side of the pcb. Do you guys think thats enough to kill the gpu?
  6. the card doesnt work on my mates pc, his r9 290x does tho even tho it consumes more pwoer which leads me to think that the gpu is at fault here. I cant connect the extra power connectors to the card because it requires 1x 6pin and 1x 8pin, my psu has 2x 6+2 pin so theres that (+2) thingy dangling off the cable but i dont think thats the issue and even if it is theres nothing i can do to fix it. you know apart from cutting it.
  7. Soooooo, i bought a second hand r9 290 windforce today. The guy was confident it worked, but when i tried it the fans, my cpu cooler and psu cooler literally did half a spin and just stopped when i tried to turn it back on again nothing happened. I was like damn.... tried to reseat the gpu, clear the cmos, changing up the pci cables and still nothing not even a beep. At that point i gave up and put in my old graphics card and when i tried to start my pc nothing happend, i thought that the psu was dead but when i disconnected the powersupply cable and plugged it back in it worked. So i tried to put the r9 290 back in and again fans did half a spin and turned off. when i tried again nothing happend, my first thought was psu is dogshit and cant power this graphics card. So i went to my friends house and tried it on his rig, he has a refrenced r9 290x from sapphire i think that works perfectly. Aaaand again i slapped the graphics card in and nothing happend... i contacted the seller and he was like MATE! the graphics card works perfectly, i tested it before i gave it to you, but he did offer to return my money. What do you guys think, is there anything i missed? Anything i should try?
