Hi,

Ive just got my rx6900xt, swapped out my old 1070 and put the 6900xt in, im now getting vga and boot leds on my msi x570 motherboard. Tried putting my 1070 back in and the vga and boot leds are still lighting up. Have i just bricked my motherboard???
 
I havent had chance to try it out yet, i had some teething problems with the install, only just been able to download the drivers, i will let you know how i get on in games, my monitor is an acer predator 27inch 1440p 144hz, so that will be what any results are based around. I have an evga supernova g3 850w psu. It should be more than enough, from what i believe the 6900xt vrm is rated for a max of 400w, my cpu is a ryzen 9 5900x with is 105w, ram is 32gb hyperx 3200mh so 28w, leaving 317w for my aio, 9 fans, and storage. And thats if my cpu and gpu are running at 100% max consumption at the same time. Thats all theory though, so i will let you know know when i start playing some games if im having issues
 
I have a EVGA 850W G1+ (old intel PC) and a EVGA 650W G2 (newer AMD PC) so was looking at getting a EVGA 850W G5 but user reviews are not good so will be getting a Seasonic or Corsire. EVGA was using Superflower units but think they have switched to some other now.

I would wait for the G6 if youre not in a rush, they dropped the ball with the G5 after the G3, it looks like they have got themselves back in the game with the G6, and its slightly smaller than the G3 also.
