upgraded GPU, having issues.

[FlawlessKasper]

Well, recently (on 24th) I upgraded from a gtx 960 to an RX 480 4gb Gigabyte G1.

Already having issues, sometimes my fans would go literally 100% even when idling (happens randomly) and it is loud af, on the first time i thought someone was using the vacuum cleaner lol.

then, starting from the 24th till today my pc has crashed around 5 times randomly.

Yesterday, I was playing total war attila all day, temps were around 50. well, then the fans kept going 100% then back to normal. when I alt tabbed to my desktop it immediately stopped doing that, went back into game then insta 100%, but most of the time it happens randomly even when idling.

need help :I

You made sure to uninstall previous drivers and clean install the new ones?

I think I did correctly, I have some things left on my control panel, they're called Nvidia PhysX and Nvidia HD audio driver.

Didn't uninstall those since I don't know 100% if I need them or now.

(not that smart on PC things xD)

Those are... Nvidia driver things...

 

Uh... looks like you're drivers aren't completely gone!

Download DDU, wipe all drivers and reinstall AMD drivers. http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

 

Could be some random nvidia driver files still kicking around.

 don't judge. xDD when I read 'HD audio driver' even if it was with nvidia, I thought I needed it (dunno why)

basically, there were lots of things from Nvidia in my control panel, when I was uninstalling the graphics driver itself, I thought it would remove the things that I don't need, (which was pretty much 90% of the things it uninstalled) except those two.

when I uninstall my drivers, do I restart my PC afterwards and then install the needed ones?

I think that's how DDU does it, yes.

I think it's fixed (for now, need to use it for a bit more to be for sure)
