iKillSteal Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 Such a cool looking card. I just wish they'd make one that doesn't pull insane amounts of power but hey, that's what updates are for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Verran Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 Nice! I think that's the first 2900 anyone's posted here, apart from Raven's review, of course. I certainly don't envy you with the work ahead, though I hope you've got a few shoehorns to get all that stuff into a P180 Keep us posted though, and good luck!

road-runner Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 Decided to go ahead and install the card and see what it will do on air. I uninstalled all the ATI drivers and shut the rig down and changed cards and the computers appears to be booting but nothing on the monitor and theres a little red light on on the card itself. I forgot to set my OC to stock so I put the old card back in and booted into the bios and removed the OC everything works fine other than no drivers. I shut it down put the card in @ stock speed and still no picture on the monitor and that little red light is on. And yes I hooked up the PCIE 6 pin plug. I am thinking the PSU is not putting out enough its the Antec 500 watt modular. I guess I need to hook up the Enermax if it does not work then its got to be a bad card Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

road-runner Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 Its supposed to run on one 6 pin but has an optional 8 pin beside it. All the reviews I read said it would run stock and with a mild OC with one 6 pin but if you wanted to OC real far plug in the 8 pin also. I am fixing to try the Galaxy with it and both plugs.
