AMD and Intel not getting along

So here's the story. Was running a Q6600 with 8 gigs of ddr2 ram and a GTS 250. I upgraded to a Radeon RX 560 and everything was going swimmingly.

Recently I rescued an i7 3770, bought an intel dp67gb board and 8 gigs of memory. Plug everything in get it set up and it wont post wont even let me hard start into the bios its giving me the error "code E6" which according to the Intel site means graphics processor error. I swap the other GTS card in and it boots just fine. I was able to use the new card in a much older board with an lga 775 socket. I can't figure out why the newer-ish 1155 i7 board is having a problem with this newer GPU

 

Bios is the latest version

Chip set firmware is the latest verson..

 

somebody help I'm hoping its a bios setting that's keeping it from posting.

It'll post with the older GTS250 card but not the newer 560. but you think uninstalling all the graphics drivers might get it to boot? With the 560 in I can't even get into the bios to see whats up with it.

Yeah I corrected myself, try DDU and install AMD drivers

Small update, updated all my drivers including PCIe and chipset ect. Still in the boot process it gets to the E6 and just freezes. I even unlocked the power management to the PCIe slots in the bios. even that didn't do it.. time to do some deep digging.

Ok so I've had to put in an AMD service support. I even did a cross compatibility check with the PCIe slots here's where I'm at you can see my board has discrete graphics support for 2 PCIe 3.0x16 and that the native slots have 2 PCIe 2.0x16 slots. The AMD card says its interface is a PCIe 3.0x8 which according to my web dive should run in an 16x slot seeing as how it ran on a PCIe 1.0x16 slot not a week ago. Also my current card is a PCIe 2.0x16 GTS 250 which runs with out a hitch. I'm going to put the AMD back in the Q6600 machine just to make 100% sure that some how the card didn't get bricked between the q6600 board and the 3770 board.

 

Anyone have any input? or suggestions?

The mystery is solved. After everything all it took was p ulling out the CMOS battery installing the AMD graphics card and rebooting the system and boom its like they were made for each other.

Do you have secure boot or csm enabled in bios?

It's not a race to the bottom.

I'll have to double check. I was just happy to get to play The District 2 that came with my Corsair K95 keyboard
