I installed a new GPU today (pic related). Everything works fine,

>>57773731
have you tried reinstalling the drivers for it? sometimes those cards get a little funky the first time the drivers get installed

>>57773852
Yes. It's still happening.

>>57773731
Reduce the power limit and downlock+undervolt the gpu via radeon settings. See what happens.

>>57773931
Can you give me more precise instructions? I'm not really a tech person and this whole thing is making me highly uncomfortable.

>>57773731
Have you connected the 8/6 Pin connectors to the card? Pls check if ur mobo has the right PCI-e slot too.

You can also try to disconnect some hard drives and run the bluescreen logger.

>>57773731
Didn't those cards pull more current than they were supposed to from the pci-e rail?

Should've bought a 1060, silly OP.

>>57773731
Try rebooting your machine, unplug it for 30 seconds (count to 30 seconds), and then power it back on. That should fix any hardware graphics issues most times

>>57774012
>Have you connected the 8/6 Pin connectors to the card? Pls check if ur mobo has the right PCI-e slot too.
Yes. Everything *should* be fine under the hood.

Open Amd Settings and set the values to something similar, then apply the settings (top right corner).

Your card may have different values than mine by default, but as long as you *reduce* the clock and voltage values the changes pose no risk; worst case scenario you have to reinstall drivers.

That card also has a bios switch so instead of changing the amd settings you can shut down your pc, flick the switch, and reboot.

>>57774305
Also my power limit keeps resetting itself to 0%.

>>57774305
Dynamic frequency doesn't allow you to set precise clockspeeds. None of them really matter except the couple highest anyway.

The power limit resetting is weird. You can try using msi afterburner https://www.msi.com/page/afterburner instead.

If it still keeps resetting just try the bios switch instead.

>>57774384
Yes I realized how stupid question that was. I noticed that I had to switch the temp setting to manual so my power limit setting wouldn't reset.

Silly bait.

BUT, in case someone here doesn't know yet, it happened in the first rev of the REFERENCE card, and AMD already did a shitty workaround. CUSTOM cards never had this problem at all.

AYYMD strikes again.

Just return that pile of shit and get a 1060, OP.

Okay, so far so good. I tested with Hitman and this time it didn't crash when I put everything to ultra. Before it rebooted within seconds of changing the settings. Seems to be working so far. Thanks.

>>57774685
That's what I was thinking.
Can you think of an MSI one that's similar to the one I had originally wanted? Maybe I can request it as a replacement instead.

Don't buy that Asus card. I've only now opened the link and it's a blower design. That's less than optimal for a non-sli setup.

AMD Wattman, it`s their new overclocking utility. It runs like dog shit, and the graph actually causes system stalls every time it updates. (Or at least it used to) Only reason I open it is to adjust power limit because for some reason afterburner doesn`t have it available for me. Also doesn`t allow for an actual custom fan curve, though the fan and temperature target settings worked phenomenally with my MSI 470. Didn`t even bother with it on the 480 GTR black edition I have. Oh, and unless they fixed it in an update, it doesn`t do shit with voltage over 1150mV. Won`t allow you to set it higher than 1175, but the card won`t use more than 1150 even if you do. So if you want to push your card to the 1400+ core clock, you won`t be using wattman.

>>57775283
thank you anon i appreciate the information

Your motherboard is faulty

Asus mobo is known to work even some components die

>>57775283
Use sapphire trixx instead of afterburner

>>57776166
I was for a while, but its just so fucking ugly. Also the resource monitor decided to sit halfway outside my screen and I couldn`t move it. A simply reinstall probably could have fixed it, but I was tired of looking at it.

Why anyone would buy any AMD GPU in 2016 is beyond me, with the 1050 up to the Titan X Pascal being around, why on earth would you willingly choose a buggy electrical catastrophe AMD card?

>>57775265
This. I had to disable it on my Maximus VIII Hero Alpha to get any overclocking done at all. It's a worthless feature.

>>57776221
I know multiple people with an RX 480 who have had absolutely no problem, myself included. Whereas both of my friends have NVidia cards and have the EVGA turd of a card. It has nothing to do with chip maker and everything to do with the aftermarket.

OP you have a great card.

Think the power draw on this card is 350W max (I usually pull about 100 during games)

If you haven't already, try re-seating the card (remove it entirely and re-insert it) and maybe that will help. Also re-seat the 8 pin power.

And, not being an ASUS board person, it sounds like >>57775265 knows what they are talking about, I'd do that as well.

If disabling the surge feature doesn't fix it (really actually sounds like that's what it might be, thinking about it) then I would try a different motherboard.

It's probably anti-surge. I've watched this card during gameplay and it loves to jump all over the place for power consumption, not unreasonable that it would possibly trigger something like that.

>>57776410
OP here, the downclocking seems to have fixed it. My other parts are ~3 years old so maybe they don't like the new technology at full power (I upgraded my GPU out of necessity since my old card died today). Thanks for help everyone.

>>57776713
Do you want to keep running at lower clock? You paid for the full speed. I'd try disabling anti-surge.

Also what kind of PSU do you have? Like model/brand? It might say 650 but who actually knows what it really is..

>>57773731
Reinstall windows

>>57777073
It's a Super Flower SF-650P-14P. I'm happy with the performance for now. When I upgrade the rest of my rig in the future, I'll tinker with the card again. I mean I don't really need the 8 BG it has either right now.

>>57777240
Did you try the other PCI-e cables on it?

>>57777261
Only one had 6+2 pins. I think. The card gives me avg 60 fps in Hitman at 1080p (max settings). That's all I need :)

>>57776197

>>57774517

how old is your power supply? also what else do you have setup in the computer? what's the mobo/cpu and everything else?

>>57777485
Oh shit, I never once considered that. Now if only it wasn`t so fucking ugly.

>>57773731
you got jewed into a bad card that you need to fucking return

>>57773731
You got a dud. RMA it and get a new one.

I have this same card and it has never done that.

What motherboard is it? I think the card is on the edge of the PCI-E spec even after the fix and a crappy mobo might not like it.

Not enough juice in the PCIe port. It will probably fry your port.

Rebranding is extremely common for PSUs. The evga 80+T units are made by SuperFlower, and those units are no joke.

I've seen it on my system too when the PSU was going bad. (Some?) Asus mobos have a feature to monitor PSU voltages and reboot the system if they're out of spec, as a measure of protection I guess. When it's triggered it will display a message on next boot to let you know.

So OP, this likely means your PSU can't power your shit properly, try having a look at what you get on your 3.3/5/12V rails. I'd say it's extremely unlikely for the card to be the culprit. Your PSU is either in the process of biting the bullet or just too shit to supply enough power. What card did you have before and what PSU do you have?

>>57779431
>Aren't Super Flower pretty good?
They do make some top-tier models, yeah. Even if the PSU is good, doesn't mean it couldn't be dying. Seems like it's an older model, could have a fair bit of mileage already.

hey /g/, i know this isnt a gpu gerneral, but i was wondering if there was any place that still had the rx 480 on sale.

i bought a 4790k to replace my g3258 and somewhere along the line my gpu started having issues.

its an r9 270x and it only posts 1/20 times when i have the gpu seated in a certain position by pushing on it.

is my card fucked up or my pci express connnector? it seems logical if it needs pressure in a certain direction to function.

assuming its the card for some reason, post cheap good deals on rx 480.

Well since I have to guess I'd say the mobo is more likely the problem. You'd be hard pressed to damage just the connector of a pci-e card.

>>57782156
Bizzare, this motherboard hasn't given me problems in any other department besides the gpu. Now, and actually 1 year ago around this time when a different 270x failed on me.

I'll examine the pci slot later.

tried running off of integrated graphics using display port and HDMI, both worked, got it to post and log into windws

I plugged in an ancient ATi 5670 using display port, that fired up first shot.

You're knowledge of PSUs is shit. Super Flower is one of the most reputable makers in the business.

I think the real discussion here is will there ever be a better looking card than the rx nitro series? I love that design so much.

If Nvidia didn't preform significantly better in overwatch and wow I would have bought that card. I wish Nvidia just supported freesync, I'll never be able to afford Gsync

>>57785126

Not on the 4gb model

>>57786651
you can overclock the memory to the same speed as the 8gb, so no perf difference.

im gonna go ahead and guess you are using a single cable from the PSU. Like , you got a single 8 pin cable plugged in the PSU and both ends of this single cable plugged in the GPU.

Problem seems to be with the PSU rail , or that cards were never intended to work that way in the first place , but you gotta use two independent cables. Plug two cables in the PSU and use the 6 pin from on your first connector and the 6+2.....

Holy fuck that card only has a single power connector.

>>57774630
I would avoid blower type cooling GPUs if possible (that is the asus turbo in your case),
they tend to run somewhat hotter and are generally much louder, they are better suited for SLI builds as they
expel hot air out of the case rather than in it. But I do not have any experience with asus turbo, I only know that
contrary to the name, it is as stock as they get (not much factory OC, if any, reason is the temperature).
Here where I am, they are by far the cheapest 1070s, I'd guess for some reason or the other. Correct me if I'm wrong, maybe someone has some experience with them.

>>57779835
>It's older and non-modular but who gives a fuck? That's not OP's problem here.

Its exactly OP's problem. Literally nothing can cause immediate reboots other than power supply issues. Downclocking the card only reduced the amount of power the card can draw from your shit psu , so it wont crash anymore.

The very fact that its non modular means OP also needs to make sure hes using the right cables and that the rails may not be designed to handle this newer card. Google your PSU and your GPU and see if anyone else has similar problems.

>When gaming with bf4 and ACU and monitoring the 12 rail is dropping 11.50 vlts is the lowest ive seen.

This shit is more than enough to crash your entire computer instantly.

Maybe try a modular PSU from a non shit brand next time.

I just landed a pretty well paid job for my country and thus will stop being a neet soon. As a treat to myself, i'd like to sell my current r9 380 while it's still worth something and get an rx 480 (300€ is the maximum i'm willing to spend for my sporadic gaming use).

I would go with msi or the xfx gtr. Msi has better cooling /dB noise, but the xfx card will stay between 65-75c depending on load and fan settings given decent air flow. It's not particularly loud until you get beyond 65% fan speed. Both overclock very well.
