Sorry they are photos from my phone, I did this quickly before leaving for work. Think this was everything I needed to take? The driver for the card says beta because it’s the newest one I was trying just in case made any difference.
This is perfect. All I can see is that everything is fine. For example the memory on your GPU is running the correct clock rates. Nothing about this info looks suspicious to me.
Since you experience weird things right from the start of the computer, we can also rule out any driver issues.
Could be we are overlooking an important detail here. But the chances of this card being a case for a RMA are getting higher…
I think if returning to Amazon they refund you then order again if need be? I’m not sure, I’ve never returned to Amazon before, anyone have any experinces?
I’ve registered it with MSI, will that cause problems?
EDIT: Just requested a return and replacement. Sending it back and they’re sending a new one out that will be with me on Sunday.
Does anyone think it worthwhile doing a fresh install of Windows prior to installing this new card on Sunday? Or because my PC was fine before the new card went in it should be ok?
Diagnosis complete!
Don’t throw that one away when a proper new one comes through. Put it in the new one’s anti static bag & box as an emergency spare, plus that also means you’d have kept the new box incase it ever has to go back under warranty.
