Hi Guys,
I have a Gigabyte x58a-ud3r/i7920/gskill 6gb(ddr3 2000)/Asus 5970 gfx card. Before the ud3 i had a X58 ud5(no issues). Since I upgraded my mobo the 5970 has been acting up. It keeps goin into power save mode(black not stripped screen) & 100%fan. It does this at random times not when stressed. The sys was o/c to 3.6 & 3.8 but even when set at defaults it still flips out. The pc itself is not locking up as i can still hear the music or game in the back ground & can even shut the pc down if i remember the keystrokes with no screen picture.
I have already contacted asus in case the card is faulty. However the card works perfectly with zero issues in my kids pc(asus p5q delux 775 board with intel 9550 in it). Plus i swapped my kids gfx card(asus 4890) into my pc with zero issues......
Weird i know hence i thought i'd ask if anyone here has a similar mobo/gfx card combo & seen such behaviour or any suggestions?
The rest of the system is very stable at high o/c's or default. I've tested the memory(memtest) & the psu is more than sufficient(corsair 850w). Currently using the F5 bios. Guess i will try the F6b bios. Thanx 4 reading...
