Wanna Get Screwed In The A** Real Hard Buy AMD!

[HectiKCookiE]

Since I got my amd system I have had nothing but problems, I have had 2 dead mobo's a dead fx 8320 and performance issues with every new game that has come out so I end up wasting my money on new games that are unplayable on amd like farcry 4, dying light, witcher 3, Gta v so I brought a seacond r9 290x and guess what this made NO DIFFERENCE AT ALL to fps and COMPLETELY STOPED some games from even running, and to top it off I saw the new omega driver was out and had support for windows 10 and a lot of the games I brought so I was like great but of course half way through the install my pc restarts and just boot loops no matter what I do so amd can get f***ed! I don't even want help to fix the piece of sh*t if doesn't fix its self it won't be fixed.

I think you're doing something wrong...

[Fictionvl]

for your second card, I think you might want to turn on crossfire in settings lol, I would always, I mean always recommend an i5 4450 for people who want to have a budget gaming PC instead of any AMD CPU or even an i3

SNIP

 

Not sure why you have had so many issues, an 8320 and 290x should every game on the market fine

 

Where are you buying hardware from? check its warranty you can probably get it replaced

[HectiKCookiE]

Calm down.  First off W10 has semi support, but not full yet.  Secondly, AMD doesn't make mobos they make chipsets for them.  Where are you buying your parts?

PC Case gear

I'm not an idiot when I saw no performance increase that was the first thing I checked

I am guessing you bought "Refurbished" parts sold as brand new.

AMD isn't bad and they don't make motherboards.

I believe you should probably not get PC parts from the place you are getting them from currently. 

[HectiKCookiE]

They have a 7.5 out of 10 rating and lower.  That's hint to stay away.

They are the best retailer any where even close to me and it's not their fault that amd doesn't like to play Nice in my pc

At least they are not MSY, NO refunds you would have gotten. (apparently I speak like Yoda)

all parts I brought were brand new and in emasculate condition they were no refurbs

[SkywardKkalox]

You can't blame AMD for what the retailer has done. 

[HectiKCookiE]

The only full AMD part in there is the 8320.  So, that's not fully AMD's fault.   You're not the first person to have this issue with this place though.  So, I'm guessing they got a bad stock or something or they are messing with parts.

my graphics card are both reference cards from amd how are they not "full amd"

FX 8320 bottleneck anything above an R9 280/280X so yeah.....of course there wasn't an FPS difference. Also, 990FX motherboards are still recommended over a 970-even the MSI gaming edition, because most if not all 990FX motherboards handle AMD's 4 module CPU quite well (I'm not going to spout AMd's 8 core BS, I've already demonstrated to my Mum that the 'newer' A8 4555M gets flogged by the Phenom II X4 P920 in her old laptop from 2009/2010).

You fucking what mate? PCCG are one of the best retailers for PC hardware in Australia. I don't know where you got that rating from or what it is suppose to compare to but you are way off with that assumption.

[HectiKCookiE]

I have brought AMD parts for PC Case gear and MSY I don't see why everyone blames the retailer

AMD doesn't make their Graphics Cards

They don't make the reference cards, they designed them.

[HectiKCookiE]

this is news to me, who makes them?

[SkywardKkalox]

I have had 2 dead mobo's a dead fx 8320

Since they were DOA, return them, that was the retailer's fault, not AMD's.

[BeakTrots]

You don't know that.

[Razarza]

this is news to me, who makes them?

The board parters like ASUS, MSI, etc manufacture and distribute them.

[SkywardKkalox]

this is news to me, who makes them?

Sapphire makes the refference stuff for AMD most of the time.

[HectiKCookiE]

Since they were DOA, return them, that was the retailer's fault, not AMD's.

they were 2 different models and they weren't doa they just didn't last long and the retailers replaced them straight away

Reference means AMD lays down the specs for how to build the card, and then another company builds the card to that specification. AMD does not manufacture graphics cards.
