EDT Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I keep getting crashes, and I dont know why. It seems driverrelated since its whenever the card is on heavy duty. How do I update my drivers?

Lenop Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 What kind of power supply do you have? To me it sounds it cannot supply enough power to the card at full load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDT Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 evga p2 750w platinum power supply. That's not enough? The only drivers I have downloaded is the ones with windows updater. Assebled my PC 3 days ago..

Assebled my PC 3 days ago.. That one should supply enough power. If your card has >1 power connector, are more power cables from power supply connected? Furthermore, I suggest downloading and installing the latest AMD drivers directly from AMD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiJack Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I had some crashes also and were running on a 850 PSU. Changed to 1000 PSU and problem solved. What else do you have running? And have you cleared out the old drivers properly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And have you cleared out the old drivers properly? Your old one must have been faulty. It's really hard to get a single graphics card PC to draw more than 500W at full load, even if you choose the most power hungry components available and over-clock the components. A fully functional 850W PSU will easily handle a powerful PC with dual 980ti's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A fully functional 850W PSU will easily handle a powerful PC with dual 980ti's. Wrong ! My PC consumes up to 612W as of Corsair Link Software in full overclock and prime95 + Kombustor + 4 YT Videos etc... While gaming DCS, you are right, it settles somewhere around 280-450 Watt, depending on stock or full overclock on both CPU and GPU. Still, a good 850 or even 750 PSU should deliver that without any headaches. Just to avoid any of this I opted for a powermonster with 1200 and software to read out. BTW: 2 x 980Ti = 2x 300W in NON-OVERCLOCK mode, RTFM, no where that a 850-PSU will do those in SLI + overclocxk the whole damn thing, no way .

PoleCat Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) Check the basics...... Remove and reseat the card. Power cables to the card>? I believe the R 390X takes 1 x 6 pin and 1 x 8 pin power connectors. Double check these on both ends (PSU and Graphics card). You have 4 different PCI-E connectors on the modular supply. If you are using two of these connectors on the same horizontal row (VGA1 + VGA3) or (VGA2 + VGA4) , try using VGA1 and VGA2 together if this does not work try using VGA3 and VGA4. One of these combinations should work well. That is a good PSU and more than adequate to the task. Use DDU found here (scroll down) to remove your old drivers and clean up. From the same site grab the latest AMD Radeon Software Crimson drivers (scroll down a little further) and download and install them after the cleanup. Good luck, Out Edited February 24, 2016 by PoleCat http://www.104thphoenix.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganesh Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 As PoleCat says: Check the basics is always a good basis ;) I had crashes over crashes with my new 390x out of the box in DCS. Was unable to play longer then a few minutes. Then i simple made a driver-update to the newest version and all was good! regards Ganesh She: "Your orders from ED have reached a total amount of $871,88 and your hardware expenses are countless..."

EDT Posted February 25, 2016 Author Share Posted February 25, 2016 I fixed the issue. I'm pretty sure I had driver issues, with both driver install from a disc and drivers from AMD website. Worked when I clean installed everything in the right order. Now my new rig runs like a charm! :) Asus Maximus Hero VIII - 6700K @4.7GHz cooled by a Fractal Design Kelvin S36 - Asus Strix GTX 1080 8GB - 32GB Corsair Vengeance 3200MHz RAM - Samsung 850 Pro 240GB SSD - Samsung 850 Evo 500GB SSD - WD RED 3 TB HDD - TM Warthog HOTAS - VPC T-50 stick and base - Baur BRD-F1 rudder pedals - Oculus rift CV1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
