Hello. I'm a total noob when it comes to pc. But after sometime thinking and planing, finally decided to build myself a PC. Parts are coming in a week, but except the Gpu. Was planing a single pc streaming setup but then 1660's are out of stock everywhere(I don't live in USA btw), and getting 3000series atm is no no, So decided to go with a decent budget option for the time bein. Here is my parts: Cpu: ryzen 5 3600 Mobo: Msi mortar max b450m Ram: Crucial Ballistix 16g in dual 3200mhz Storage: some kingston nvme and 2tb 7200rpm hdd Psu: haven't decided yet but gonna get 600w one And some cheap as case. I can live with that And 1080p 144hz display to go with it, thinking about upgrading to 1440p in some time tho not soon. So, here is how this is looking right now, Gtx 970 4gb ... 144 usd R9 390 4gb ... 134 usd R9 290 4gb ... 115 usd Seller is telling me they are all new, but we all know that's total bs. But I'm ok with that, as long as they runs. So, Happy to hear your opinions guys

Hello .. Me again .. Nayr438 - Soz I didnt reply in the old thread, but TLDR, it gave the same result n my head blew up n I had to leave it for a month Anyhow on to the current issue... Guess what .. its the same one ... Current setup - I5 2500, R9 290, 16Gb RAM, Manjaro KDE installed, Still on 5.9 Kernel due to a time-shift rollback ( I buggered the GRUB just b4 this post with too much desperate tinkering ) .. Anyhow .. This time somehow I have "vulkan" working using I assume the updated Radeon drivers, I can get vxcube running and get no errors when I "vulkaninfo" it .. But I cannot get any dx11 Proton games working in steam ... I can get a few working via wine .. but would prefer to use the amdgpu-pro driver so that I can use Proton to its full abilities for "my GPU". So AFAIK I have all the required drivers installed and I am back to where I was b4 I messed up the GRUB ... Current installed drivers are - My Issue is that when I Follow the Archwiki guide .... Whatever I do """" always"""" ends in a totally blackscreen where I cannot even access the tty2 screen to fix my errors. ... I have made sure > - Made sure amdgpu has been set as first module in the Mkinitcpio#MODULES (I only wrote amdgpu in the modules tho?) - Set module parameters in kernel command line both in the amdgpu.conf & radeon.conf file - Make sure modconf is in the the HOOKS array in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf and regenerate the initramfs ( I believe this covers the "Early KMS start" bit too ) - Made sure the "Install the amdgpu-pro-libglAUR. Optionally install the lib32-amdgpu-pro-libglAUR package for 32-bit application support." are installed - Even tried the last fix on this site that has the same Issue as me but with 390`s - https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/1222 - And this ... Yet - Everytime I get a blackscreen on boot. However .. If I edit /etc/modprobe.d/amdgpu.conf to options amdgpu si_support=0 options amdgpu cik_support=1 ... It does allow me to boot with nomodeset & get the tty2, so I can revert it If I select any other option from any guide I have found .. I get total black screen with "" no chance "" of the TTY2 screen. I read on another site that 1 dude believed that the GDM was loading b4 the amdgpu driver .. I dont totally understand what hes trying to say re: the fix, so have not tried it yet, but it could be a option as nothing else is working https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/kx8mam/radeon_loads_fine_cant_get_amdgpu_to_load_on_gcn/https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/kx8mam/radeon_loads_fine_cant_get_amdgpu_to_load_on_gcn/ Here are some random screenshots via my adventures of trying to get the amdgpu driver to boot 1st (Just in case they help) .. But Im at a bit of a loss as what to try next considering I cant use the wiki anymore Long post but would rather give as much info as poss to fix this issue ... Other people have it working with a "very" similar setup .. So it "should" work on mine too ... But for the life of me .. I cannot Anyone

Hey guys so I have a Gigabyte R9 290 (with a broken fan, its been through a lot) and lately when I'm playing I get lower FPS than I used to and stuff. Then I checked on Afterburner and saw it was throttling at 94c even though I just recently changed the thermal paste on it. I've been tinkering and testing it and I came to the conclusion it might have something to do with VRAM temp because when dialing its clock down to 725 MHz instead of its usual 1250 MHz it seems to take a lot longer to start throttling down so yeah, am I on the right path? Here's two screenshots of furmark and you can see how much longer it takes to start throttling down. Is there something else I'm missing? Thanks a lot!

So I have had this card for about 6 months and it has been performing good getting a steady 240fps on Fortnite using comp settings on DX12. But recently in January it has started having issues where it would open the game run for a little bit like normal then there would be these blue flickering dots on the screen and then the game would crash. I have been looking to getting the RTX 3060ti but I have no clue when they are going to be back in stock. Does anyone know what is wrong with my gpu?

Hi guys, for the last couple of months I have been black screens when using my Sapphire R9 290 Tri-X OC. It is a very peculiar issue, because it only happens when I am outside of a game e.g. with an open browser (with hardware acceleration turned off), or other 2D applications, I believe it has only happened in game once or twice and that was when I had some 2D applications open as well as the game. I have noticed it often happens when I open Origin's client - it would crash within a few minutes - and that's how I tested the fixes I have tried that are stated below. The screen goes black (but still on) and the PC hangs - I tried accessing it through TeamViewer from my laptop, but it appears offline, so it definitely hangs, it's not just a GPU driver issue. When I press the restart button on my PC it would sometimes do the loud buzz. The card never goes over 85 degrees Celsius, because of the gigantic cooler and the three fans - the reasons I like it so much. The fans don't even rev-up, cause I've got an intake fan just next to the GPU on the side of the case (an old CooleMaster case). Stuff I've tried so far: I am now officially out of ideas, it seems like it's a voltage issue on the lower or lowest power stages, but I am just guessing. Would forcing constant voltage help? Should I bake the GPU in the oven? Has anyone had similar issues and know if I can revive this card? Or is it just dead for good?

Hi all i am new here but i have been following Linus for a few years now, but no money for a real computer, so upgrading is key. To make a long story short, i am making a final upgrade to my old PC, i bought a R9 290 for 70 euro shipped, to replace my R7 370 since the R9 290 came out a year after my A10-6800K it should be compatible without the system bottlenecking to much. Is it a good choice? Bang for buck? Also should i use 2 seperate cables to connect it? it uses a 6 pin and 8 pin together my power supply is Corsair 750M, i heard linus say if you have 2 separate lines you should use it, but then the inlet is blocked with cables (old zalman case) Also i wonder if my cooling is sufficient i have a 120 at the front, 80 at the side blowing at the card and cpu, 80 at the back and 120 at the top, i heard the card produces a ton of heat. Card has not arrived yet so i don't know. Also should i change the thermal paste on the GPU, it is the old model the one with the single fan? I have Arctic Silver 5... i bought that when that was top stuff I know it is a frankenstein tired old monster but i have no money for a complete new one.

Hey, I have a problem with my GPU. I have installed another graphics card as the main graphics card to look at the "defective" graphics card in the operating system Its a R9 290 by Powercholor and the GPU on the Main slot is a HD7870 fully funtional. The R9 290 gets detected by the OS but it has a error when it starts and i cant install Driver( a error appears every Time time.) The Fan spins Normaly on the GPU and i already replaced the Thermal Paste. My Components are: CPU: AMD Fx 8320 RAM: 16 GB DDR3 Ram SSD(Bootdrive): 120 GB Boot SSD HDD: 1TB HDD Mainboard: GA-990XA-UD3 by GIGABYTE OS: Windows 10 PSU: SP-B700 by Silverpower

Hi guys, new member of the forum here. I just wanted to get some help as I can't seem to crack whats wrong. The issue I am encountering is the computer crashing during games within 30s to a min of running a game, regardless of what game it was. There will be a sudden loss of signal to the monitors but the fans still spin and the system appears to be on. This only started happening after I added a 3rd monitor to my system. I only run the game on 1 monitor and not on an Eyefinity setup. Outside of games the system runs fine on all 3 monitors without any crashes, even when playing a 4K video on Youtube or VLC. If I unplug one of the monitors, regardless of which one, the system runs fine in-game again. Some troubleshooting I have done to no avail: 1) Replaced the 3rd monitor with another just in case it was a faulty monitor 2) Replaced the DP to HDMI cable with a more expensive brand name one 3) Abandoning DP entirely and running 1 monitor on HDMI and the other 2 on DVI to HDMI cables 4) Using AMD support's advice and doing a clean uninstall of AMD drivers with DDU and installing the latest drivers again 5) Replaced the thermal paste on my GPU as well as CPU although there was not change in running temperatures on the new setup 6) Running games at low settings, although prior to this the same games were running fine on high or ultra I am considering replacing my graphics card at this point thinking it might be the problem but before I do I just wanted to ask you guys for an opinion. Here are my system specs : AMD FX 8350 not overclocked AMD R9 290 4GB reference cooler Gigabyte 970A-DS3P motherboard running bios version 2.7 2 x Kingston 1600MHx 8GB DDR 3 RAM 1TB Verbatim SSD 4TB Seagate 3.5inch 7200RPM HDD 750W EVGA SuperNOVA 750 B1, 80+ Bronze PSU 3 x Dell S2340L 23inch 1080p monitor (1 on HDMI, 1 on DP to HDMI cable, 1 on a DVI to HDMI cable) Thank you very much!

Hello i have come across a problem with my Asus r9 290 (non x). When i boot my pc up i get no display (black screen), i can hear the cards fans spinning and my system is working but i get no display. i have tried to unplugg the r9 290 and use the onboard graphics and it works perfectly. So i wonder do you guys know what the problem is, i have a feeling its the drivers or maybe power?

I am upgrading my system, but as lower middle class person goes I can't go full out all at once... going to need to space it out over few months. So the upgrade will be R9 290 -> Inno3d GTX 1080 iChill X3 i5 2500k -> i7 7700k Some z170 or z270 MB Most likely Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB(2x8) 3200MHz RAM In the future I will most likely run both graphics cards to use in FAH (FoldingAtHome) concurrently at PCIE 3.0 8x for both while obviously gaming will be done on the 1080 ... and I have done my research that GTX 1080 wont be constricted except for few percentile performance on specific loads / games in that configuration. What my question comes down to is that while I will get my GPU today or tomorrow I will still be running PCIE 2.0 8x/8x for the coming 2 months. How bad will the 1080 suffer in games at PCIE 2.0 8x speeds... Basically Is it worth to constantly take out the R9 290 to run 1080 at 16x 2.0 when I'm not using it for FAH or will I get reasonable results nevertheless on 2.0 8x?. When I use FAH, will the 1080 suffer at all at PCIE 2.0 8x concurrently with my R9 290? Specific workload question.

Hello, I'm looking for a 1440p monitor, around 24", for my OC'ed R9 290 to drive. I would like it to be around $300, and possibly have Freesync. Thanks for the suggestions!

So, my rig is currently in a fractal define r4 which I love, but I'm going overseas for college and need a smaller case that I am able to take as a carry-on as it's extremely expensive to ship overseas. Especially since I'll be going back and forth from the U.K. to America. I need a case that can fit an Asus z87-a(which as far as I know isn't full atx? But it isn't mini either), a Gigabyte Windforce R9 290, and a Hyper 212 Evo CPU cooler. I also have a thermaltake power supply, an SSD and a HDD but I figure those will fit in any case. I would appreciate some suggestions! I like the noise dampening of the Fractal Define R4, but I'll forgo it for something I'll be able to fit in a carry-on. Preferably with a side panel where I can see my components, but that's not neccecary.

what minimum power smps would be required to power only one r9 290.other hardware will be running on seperate power supply.would a corsair vs 450 be perfect. it have 34 amp on its 12 volt rail.or a corsair vs 550 which have 42 amp on its 12 volt rail.

Greetings everyone. I just finished building my new rig and I am having a strange problem. When running Uningine or any other benchmark or when playing Deus Ex Mankind divided (any setting) , Metro 2033 Redux, etc I am getting microstudders and sometimes studders that freeze the game for a brief second (mostly Deus Ex). I have two Gigabyte R9 290s in crossfire mode with the latest AMD drivers and Windows 10 with all updates installed. Sometimes when I enable crossfire the system hangs. My system also hung when I updated the AMD drivers as well. I had to pull one card out to perform the driver update. Interesting note is that when I play with only one card it plays mostly fine, when I add in the second card it starts studdering. I decided to test both cards and the second card when its by itself, Windows login screen became completely blue but I typed in my password and the screen went dark for a few moments and then I saw the desktop. I checked Afterburner and it seems the card is clocked at 1040Mhz but the other card (the "good one") is clocked at 947Mhz. When I checked the R9 290 specs online it seems the 947 is correct. I turned down the clock speed by manually overriding in the AMD driver but same studdering issue continued. I played Deus Ex with the "bad" card and it stuttered more than when I played it with only the "good" card. So I went on Gigabyte's website and I see that the model video card GV-R929WF3-4GD has the bios with the core speed of 947Mhz but other R9 290s from Gigabyte with different model numbers have it at 1040mhz. Is it possible that this could be causing the issue or is the card just physically bad? When I was pulling out each card from the system I noticed that the "bad" card was hotter to touch then the other card. Please help.

Hello all, I have an i5-2400 and an R9 290 with a Rajiintek Morpheus cooler. I've found that around 600 watts would be perfect for this system. However, I don't have much room (small atx case) to route cables. Can someone recommend a semi-modular ATX psu around 600 watts and $50 US? Thanks!

So I just got an r9 290 direct cu ii oc 4gb and I went ahead and installed it in my pc. It booted up fine but as soon as i install any drivers it just starts to show severe artifacts . Though when i uninstall all the drivers using DDU the artifacts disappear but its recognized as Microst Basic Display Adapter. I have even tried flashing a newer bios even though it already had what seemed to be the latest version and i have tried underclocking the card and increasing or decreasing the power limit. Any help would be appreciated Specs: I3-4150 8 gb ram 1 7200 rpm hdd 1 5400 rpm hdd Gigabyte H81M-S2PV Mobo Asus Direct cu ii r9 290 oc Fsp hydro g 850

Hey folks, I was wondering whether or not the Sapphire 290 (w/ stock cooler) and the Sapphire 390 Nitro (3rd party cooler) had the same PCB? I am after a second opinion as I don't wish to take the cooler off my 390 if I didn't end up needing to. I am considering throwing my Corsair HG10 onto the 390 if it can fit as the cooling performance was great on the 290 using it. Possibly helpful links: 290: http://www.sapphiretech.com/productdetial.asp?pid=290CE20E-681E-43C1-9A60-3D3BF65ECFCB&lang=eng 390: http://www.sapphiretech.com/productdetial.asp?pid=FF539E23-7718-4BDE-9E02-CF174D2BFCC2&lang=eng Thanks in advance

R9 390 refuses to work, while other GPU works on the same PC
EmKa7a posted a topic in Graphics Cards
So, I have a XFX R9 290, I bought another GPU for cheap, Sapphire R9 390, although the sapphire doesn't work on my system, while on another PC it works fine. The 290 also works fine on both systems. I deleted the old AMD 290 Drivers, tried basically everything, but I get no screen, neither the text on the screen for no cable connection, nothing, just blank. I can hear the windows boot sound though, so the PC boots till windows with the 390, just... no screen. Even the fans don't spin. Tried the dual bios button, still nothing. The Power Supply is FSP Raider RA 750Watts. Tried on both slots of the motherboard, also with 2 different cables, one DVI and one HDMI on different screens. Same thing. Any ideas?
