Surely even I can't be THIS unlucky!

Cleeecooo > You should have all your old games for steam stored under "windows.old" if you're lucky :-) save you having to redownload them.

Second monitor not being recognised :/



WTF?!

  1. I needed more VRAM
  2. My 580 had 1.5gb VRAM
  3. My 570 has 2.5gb VRAM
  4. 2.5>1.5
  5. I also needed DP
  6. My 580 didn't have DP
  7. My 570's have DP
  8. I now have DP
  9. Finally, 570SLI>580

lol, and yes, as kii said, I got the special EVGA ones ;)

Shame the monitors still have no ETA :/
 
I've had a thread there entitled "can I make a quick change to my order please"

The thread is over although old and still going strong lol. This is ofcourse, all thanks to 5UB ;)
 
When I was Ordering my liquid cooling stuff I added an extra pump by accident and started the thread. A month later and the thread is now basically me pestering 5UB! Lol!

:D My fave episode was Cleeecooo and his over heating 6970.. I really need to find that one.. the guy is a gem ( I lost count how many times we said RMA the card to him on that occasion LOL).. Whenever I hire I.T people I run the Cleeecooo test tool on them to make sure they are not going to set fire or overtoast the companies systems.. Or worse try to water cool them with petrol because it has a lower boiling point :p

Kidding apart Cleeecooo I wish you luck mate with that but I would login via your 580 or the IGP and backup your files and browser favs and whatever else you need and reinstall windows mate with only 1 x 570 installed in the pc. If that works try the other 570 on its own too and if that works to SLI them mate and cross your fingers. It will save you a lot of headaches this way.

Not too sure how far you got with it, but that is what I would do.

Yeah yeah:rolleyes:

To b fair, my knowledge has increased significantly since then :p
BTW, the 6970 has finally been RMAd and has been found faulty.

I'm off for a few hours but when I get back I'll try and re seat the second card and see if I can get it working.
 
Everything working as far as i can tell. Can't manage any gaming today as flying took longer than expected, and now i have some work to do. i'll come back early tomorrow and see if i can get some games installed :D
