The Radeon RX 6900/6950 XT Owners Thread.

Prices are bit mad tbh.

How the other half live (and by half I naturally mean the top 1%ers that can afford this type of nonsense).

A bit mad is putting it mildly, it's utter derp mode currently and both camps continue to put out new skus they can't supply enough of to add to the madness. I really have to wonder wtf is the point in "launching" a gpu with how things are? It just ****** people off with the lack of availability and the gouging.
 
The prices are ridiculous.

But for the top 1%ers that this type of hardware is aimed at don't care.

And I guess you make of that whatever you want.
 
Is anyone getting black screen with no signal on brand new card 6800xt card ?

It has hdmi 2.0 cable plugged in , however is shows a black screen. I've tried everything but can't get it to show a picture.

The motherboard bios does come up and I can go into the bios, but after that, it's a black screen?

Maybe you should ask in the 6800 XT owners thread.

Helpful!

You could ask there yes but probably won't make much difference. It sounds like it might be dead, contact OCUK customer services ASAP.

Another idea - maybe try DP cable?

Have you enabled resizable bar?
 
A little trick to help with the sag is either a screw or wedge something in to the top of the bracket that goes through the motherboard tray. (The fingers of the PCI plate) to push bracket down so the card lifts at the end. As in from behind the motherboard tray.
Aha! That must be how the anti-sag bracket that came with my Phanteks case works then! I couldn't understand for the life of me why the vague instructions looked like it was telling me to install it next to where I tighten the screws at the back of the case! I was thinking; the sag is at the other end of the card, what use is it going to do installing a bracket at the opposite end!

Yeah the instructions for my anti sag bracket on the P600s was dog poo. I figured it out thanks to a YouTube video in the end though.

How effective is it? The sag on my devil was considerable, I wonder is it equal to the task of using an actual bracket under the 'saggy' end as I have just now...
 
The 6800xt thread is dead.

It's weird to see everyone here swore by AMD now I've gone and bought one. It is showing black screen and your pointing me to 6800xt thread where no one responds:cry:. The 3080 does not do any if this.

You could try checking in the bios if your PCIe is set to gen 4. It may still be on gen 3 or auto. Worth a shot.
 
My card is an AMD card that's giving the problem. Resizable bar is an Nvidia feature?
I Thought the setting still needed to be enabled in the bios for SAM though?

I know Nvidia cards don’t boot to windows when its enabled and windows is not set to UEFI so though it maybe something similar.

My board is a PCIE 3.0 x16 and I can't see any setting to change that

I've got it to boot, 2 times out of 20 attempts, it wants to boot up when it wants. I'm gutted about this.

The mobo is on stock settings, I'm not even wanting
To use SAM, just want to boot into Windows . I already used driver cleaner.

I changed BIOS to Legacy mode from UEFI mode and it posted but took quite a long time. It is like I don't even have a SSD. T AMD he card has crippled my system. With black screens and when it boots 1 out of every 10 times it is very slow to post.:mad:
