    Issues with Radeon 6970 and FirePro V4800

    Ok, so i don't have to switch cables now. It has to do with what windows uses as the primary display, like in the control panel. If i click Use This device as primary monitor on the monitor that is on the FireGL, solidworks uses that video card. If i change my primary to the monitor on the...

    Issues with Radeon 6970 and FirePro V4800

    I have a Radeon 6970 and FirePro V4800 in my computer. The FirePro is for work, the radeon for play. The problem is, when I load Solidworks, it doesn't use the FirePro for rendering, and professional features are disabled. If i hook up my primary monito physically to the FirePro, then...

    isntability, have tried everything. AMD X6 and Asus board.

    yup RMA# xxxxxx Processor did not pass overnight stress testing - caused system to crash to blank screen. Possible problem may be with memory controller or a bad register within the CPU. GOD FUCKING DAMN IT! FUCK YOU AMD! YOU ARE KILLING ME!

    I doubt that i got 2 bad northbridges in a row. Seem highly unlikely. Also instability didn't change with my vcore setting, it wasn't worse or better. On my first board i removed the northbridge cooler and replaced the thermalpad with thermal greese to see if it was a heat problem. Also these...

    I ran memtest from a flash drive, and unplugged all hard drives and my SSD and unplugged my external USB drive. Only things hooked up were Keyboard and momuse, and I unhooked those once the test was under way.

    the ram. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-311-_-Product also I just tried memtest on each module individually and they both caused memtest to stop exactly at 53 percent on the 188k-2048M test. Why would it stop at exactly the same point? memory incompatibility or faulty CPU memory...

    yeah memtest actually fails. It says errors=0 but the program itself stops running and sits there idle, but the memory shows no errors. what does that mean? coincidence?: It stopped at 50% total and the current 188k-2048M 8190M only made it to 20% then it stopped testing, errors still...
