Re: Crashing using new R7 260X GFX Card

...New card supplied and no issues ever since. :lol: Good to hear. Amd cards do still tend to run hot though. Ventilation is paramount. You asked for a cabinet earlier, and this one has my highest recommendations: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMScVX3eCPs Fly safe Sorry not been on for a while. C...

My little trip

I've not done much in the way of exploring and I'm not sure how this'll go! First trip was to the Coal Sack and back. Now this trip, so far I've got as far as the Witch Head Nebula and I'm trying to head down towards the Running Man / Orion / Barnard's Loop area. Planning to continue down from there...

Re: Crashing using new R7 260X GFX Card

Well I never did update this, Anyway in short it seems it was a duff card. After falling out with the engineer due to his poor attitude I spoke to one of his colleges. :roll: He agreed that if I had to underclock it to get any stability from it them something was wrong. New card supplied and no issu...

Re: Ghost Squadron - Galactic Hunters

Well that was a good night. I just happened to drop in on Unmarkedboxcar taking Thunderbird over the basics. Ended up at the nav beacon before me and boxcar flew into a warzone. Nice 330K for me and got to put my new vulture through her paces. I only wanted fuel :lol: Got a good pic of Thunderbird h...

Re: Ghost Squadron - Galactic Hunters

I've not really been about either. Same here really, just crazy busy at the moment. I'll have to see where some of you guys are and team up.
Thinking about heading towards Arcturus just have a look about.

Re: Crashing using new R7 260X GFX Card

Well I thought I'd update this.

Briefly, one new GFX card later and my problems are gone. New card (same type) runs cooler and quieter and give no issues at all. Must have been a hardware fault.

Cheers,

Re: Crashing using new R7 260X GFX Card

Hopefully I've found a stable setup now. I removed all of the drivers and software that came with the card (Gigabyte stuff) and now I'm only running the direct AMD drivers and the AMD Catalyst Control Centre, with the GPU clock speed reduced by 5%. So far this seems to be hold. Strange thing is the ...

Re: Crashing using new R7 260X GFX Card

Thanks for the reply.
I'll look at any bios settings as I don't think my fans are running at high speed.

The company that supplied it to me are getting me to test it to try and see where the problem might be.
