Update, the bitch fried itself, never buying amd again.

That's true, I'll try dropping down to 4 Gb until I can buy a new mobo. I am running win7 64 bit currently

The only problem there is then I cannot play games. I will try it however and see if it works.

I posted a while back about the fact that I suspected my GPU was incompatible with my motherboard. Many of you suggested that I get a new PSU, so I got an EVGA 550W unit. However, the card still crashes, even though I have reinstalled the drivers and such. Most fullscreen games won't work, and video sites other than youtube crash the card. The only thing out of the ordinary about the card is that one of the cooling block screws is broken off. Would that affect the seating of the processor itself in any way? Specs: Motherboard: ASUS P5N-D (nvidia chipset) CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @2.6GHz RAM: 4x2GB PSU: EVGA 550W GPU: XFX Radeon R7 360

I rigged it a second psu up to the gpu only, again 300W and it still kept crashing

It's a 300W unit out of a Dell Inspiron.

Recently bought an XFX Radeon R7 360 GPU, but kept crashing when paired with my ASUS P5N-D motherboard and Intel core 2 quad q6600 CPU. It works fine in my brother's prebuilt computer with a core 2 quad. How can I get it to work with my computer?

Do you have a better recommendation for a stress tester? I have DDU'ed and reinstalled drivers about 12 times. I will check the chipset. Edit: My chipset is NVIDIA 750i SLI. Drivers are installed correctly.

I recently bought an XFX Radeon R7 360 graphics card from a friend as a replacement for my GeForce 8800 GT (Yes, i know Nvidia to AMD is not a good upgrade, but it is the best I could find). The GPU was in near mint condition, other than one screw missing for the heatsink, but the heatsink was still tight. It worked just fine for my friend, but when I started using it, the driver would crash at random every few minutes, some days worse than others. I started watching the load, and it appeared to randomly spike to 100% usage even when not doing anything, before freezing and restarting. I ran the FurMark stress test, and it ran fine at 100% usage until the GPU reached 70 degrees Celsius, where it froze and crashed, sometimes killing down the entire computer even at the lowest resolution. Here is my rig: Mobo: Asus P5N-D CPU - Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.40GHz RAM - 4x2GB Elpidia 2Rx8 PC2-6400U-666 Dual Western Digital HDD's 300W psu out of an old Dell PC My only guess is that my hardware is too old to support the GPU. Any way I may be able to get it to work?
