SOLVED!! PSU was the issue! It was because the Card was connected to 4-pin Molex connectors instead of normal 6-pin pci connectors. Finally RMA'ed the PSU and now it is working fine on 12.6 Drivers :-)

You may be correct. The card has DVI-I port but there is a square sinewave marking besides the port. Does this mean it only processes digital signal? But there were no issues previously when we first installed the card. I am at work right now. I will post some screenshots of ATI CCC and a pic...

Tried that. Montior works fine on another PC. Where is that option? I can only find Detect Display and Rotate display options.

My friend recently purchased a Gigabyte AMD HD 7770 graphics card. Firstly the games he played would freeze for a few seconds and then the notification would show in AMD CCC that device driver has failed and recovered. This was solved by updating the drivers to latest stable 12.6 catalyst...

I suggested the 7770 since he was getting it for 8k. So he purchased it this morning and I came over to do the installation. Now the device and drivers installed fine without a problem. But the display adapter is showing 7700 series in Device Manager/dxdiag/gpu observer instead of the actual...

My friend will upgrade to a better PSU and gfx card next year and a half so it would be pointless to get a cx430 again. I mentioned 10k budget but the reality is he wants to spend as little as possible so he can save more for the next big upgrade. Yes we could try that but could the cx430 be...

My friend requires a graphics card which could be able to play games at 720p max but doesn't demand high power PSU: Corsair CX 430 (PCie connector's pin on the PSU went loose and soldering the pin worsened the situation :| :-? ) Budget: 10k max Monitor: Viewsonic 18.5" LCD. 1366x768 max...

No not the 9800gtx. I was talking about the AMD 7xxxx/NVidia 6xx series as I would be upgrading to a high end GPU in near future.

Sorry for the bump. I purchased the rig and now I have assembled it. Had a little difficulty while mounting the CPU but else everything went perfect :D Just wanted to confirm one thing. Will the CPU be a bottleneck in high cpu utilizing games like SC2 and Skyrim at 720P and...

I am going for AMD FX 8150 and Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3. My Final config: AMD FX 8150 ~12.5k Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 ~6.5k Gskill RipjawsX 2x4 GB 3.4k Corsair HX650 7k NZXT Source elite 210 2.5k (Had to go for this due to budget constraints) Total: ~32K With the spare budget I...

Thanks for the reply guys. I should have mentioned that I am not going for a OC right away. I might try to milk the proccy at stock speeds before I try to overclock(that is 7-8 months down the line). Is the bulldozer good enough at stock speed? I have read that it has to be overclocked to...

1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? Ans: Matlab, Lotus Domino Server(For testing), Lotus Domino Designer, Visual Studio 2010, Simulation algorithms that might run for days in Matlab/scilab. Games like BF3, Rage, MW3, Crysis 2 and other...

Hi Everyone! :-) I am planning to upgrade my PC incrementally. Can anyone help with a few questions? I will be upgrading CPU+Motherboard+PSU+Cabinet+RAM first and my budget is exactly 30K. What would be the best possible configuration for this budget? Which CPU-Mobo combo should I go...
