    HELP !!! (Urgent) 290x not being detected!

    Are you doing it with your new card? If so just use the 8800 for the bios update. My 290 had a similar issue. Two things to try: bios update as stated before and getting the latest catalyst drivers. Also if you encounter a problem with your system freezing up after logging in (i.e. once start...

    HIS R9 290 overclocked to 290X problem

    As in device boot priority (as I remember no other option that would allow this)? I tried it before and it hasn't worked but that was with the old drivers. I'll give it a shot again, but I don't hold my hopes up. There are only three options in the bios that I see relating to the PCI-E device...

    HIS R9 290 overclocked to 290X problem

    Final update on this issue. Catalyst 13.11 drivers kind of resolved the issue in the way that I'd get image after around 30 seconds - 1 minute and only once windows loaded up (that's only using HDMI cable, DVI remained non-responsive). However soon as I logged into any user profile and processes...

    HIS R9 290 overclocked to 290X problem

    I'll throw in an update as I tried something different - connected the card to my old mobo and lo and behold it works fine there. So in short - new mobo works with my old 6970 and old mobo works with r9 920. If anyone has any ideas I'm all ears =/.

    HIS R9 290 overclocked to 290X problem

    Samsung Syncmaster P2450H and LG 32LC2D were connected to the graphics card with the same result.

    HIS R9 290 overclocked to 290X problem

    It is yes. And yeah, it tried other PCI-E slots on the mobo as well as an HDMI and DVI connector - none of this worked.

    HIS R9 290 overclocked to 290X problem

    Hi guys, I've tried tech support already but on the off chance someone else stumbled on this problem and found a solution I'll ask here as well. Recently I got myself the HIS R9 290 overclocked to 290X card together with the "FX8 SPEC OPS" AMD FX-8 8350 @ 4.6GHz Overclocked Gaming PC Bundle...

    *** The Official Playstation 4 (PS4) Thread ***

    As strange as it is, given the built in motion controller on the DS4, the camera does indeed come as a separate product.

    Oh right. Never knew that. Still, with Thing being as madly OP as he was on last count (in PvP at least) you can't go wrong ;p

    Marvel Heroes

    Wait, what? I thought all 5 (Daredevil used to be on that list as well - I pretty sure of that) were meant to be free and all the others were to be picked from the paid roster. Have they changed their stance on that? Shame =/

    Ubisoft Uplay is utter rubbish

    Might be to my detriment but Ubisoft's draconian DRM and general negligence of the PC crowd is the main reason I've given up on them and haven't purchased a single title since the cell shaded Prince of Persia.

    Marvel Heroes

    My bank security just earned a double facepalm. Blocked my attempt to purchase the ultimate pack on grounds of the charge originating from the USA (btw, don't use pay pal, their conversion rate rips you off!), and on my second attempt to purchase the said pack, the discount code no longer worked...

    Can't access that forum without beta access :(. Speaking of which, have detailed character changes been posted yet?

    *** The 2012 Gym Rats Thread ***

    Pretty much yes - mainly for veg/fruit as I like them fresh and my storage space is limited, but then every now and again other necessities pop up. I buy meat in bulk from the butchers then freeze it. Looking at it now, perhaps I'd benefit from making a cooking plan for the week on my off days...

    *** The 2012 Gym Rats Thread ***

    Well you had my breakdown of the day. I don't have much space to work on unless I run around everywhere like a goon in order to get to the gym asap after work (I already do, but more often than not I need that half an hour to wind down after my shift some of which extend into a 2 - half 2...

    *** The 2012 Gym Rats Thread ***

    It is 3 days a week. Didn't word it properly perhaps but the workout spread over 2 weeks is D1 off D2 off D1 off off D2 off D1 off D2 off off. Rinse repeat. Biggest problem with getting more sleep is the time I consume my dinner at. If I don't cook it's a non-issue (but then it consists of...

    *** The 2012 Gym Rats Thread ***

    Tracking calories pre dinner is much easier than what I make for dinner (I'll add them to my main post in a sec). Also the 15 kg bar I was referring to wasn't the olympic bar that I use for squats and deadlifts but the shorter barbel bar that I use for all the other barbel exercises. Isolation...

    *** The 2012 Gym Rats Thread ***

    Evening all. This is going to be a bit lengthy so please bear with me. Backstory: I was (am?) what one could refer to as a dweeb. Avoided exercise beyond walking to work and occasionally unloading pallets of food during deliveries (more on this in a bit) and stayed in front of my pc all...
