Odd problem with X850XT, maybe something else?

Now, did this guy sell me a bad board? He has said some conflicting things, at first he told me about using the secondary slot, and then later he told me he only used SLI setups on this board, but when the board arrived it was in single card mode

Looking at his heat, I'd say no way would he sell a knownly borked board to you. As to what seemed conflicting comments, I don't see it that way at all. Regardless ofd what settings I use, when I sell a board, I return it to factory default condition. I surmise that is all he did.
