In this video, we go over how to install the Sapphire Radeon Nitro+ RX 590 8GB OC Backplate Special Edition 11289-01-20G to either upgrade your computer or when building a newer one. Check it out on Amazon: geni.us/CWSOO8N
Quick question.... Do I need to use two sperate PCIe cables from my power supply unit to connect this? Or if I have one PCIe cable that has two 6+2 connectors can I just use the one cable & the two different connectors on it for the card?

As a mechanic with 5 years experience i was like: oh my god how over detailed is he demonstrating the install to the mainboard.. But as he came to the part of installing the software i really had to concentrate to understand what he is doing but i think that dudes with windows experience feel vice versa to how i felt haha 😂 To be honest i didn't even know that you had to do that. I ordered a pc 4 days ago wich is kinda good but has a poor gpu and it didn't even arive yet so i already ordered the amd rx590 nitro+ so i can get started right away. Good video
so, I get kinda mixed feelings on this, I think you liked it haha but I am not sure. Yes, I like to go into a lot of detail as to make sure not to miss anything, I know some people don't have experience while others have tons, so I try to help all and I try to take it to basics, so I am happy I could help you installing the drivers. You mentioned you had to concentrate on a portion, was something I was going over too complicated, I will be doing another video like this very soon (this weekend, and I want to make sure I cover it all.). Thank you so much for your compliment on the video, I really do try hard and I want to make sure I get it perfect, so any input you could provide would be great. Thank you my friend.
@@ThisBytesForYou oh no need for mixed feelings the video was great, i just have no idea yet how to deal with this stuff in general but you explained it very well. And yes for me it is to detailed but as you said, that way everyone gets it :)
nice, I didn't think they were water drops, I thought they were rips of 2 plastic pieces being assembled together then pulled apart, but when I looked closer it was part of their design, very cool of you to notice it too. Thank you so much for stopping by, checking out the video and even more for commenting, it means a ton to me. Thanks again my friend.
@@ThisBytesForYou Absolutely. Though I don't necessarily need help installing a card (I'm a computer forensic examiner), I did just buy an RX580 Nitro in blue (personal use, I have a quad 1080Ti setup at work to assist in password breaking operations) and wanted to comment on the fan blades. Maybe it's for aesthetic reasons only, but maybe it helps the overall CFM of the fan. Regardless, interesting video. Well done.
@@Pavewy I would think it would overall create more noise (dba), breaking apart the air which still may not be a bad thing, I am sure they researched it tons. Very nice rig at work CUDA is working out for you nicely. I built 2 VERY high end workstations for the CDC in 2012, each had 8 Tesla 2080's in (maybe they were 2050's) and I got to run one of their simulations for testing, CUDA destroyed that applications (I can't speak of what the test was) it ran VERY smooth. If your application for password breaking is written for CUDA, it is tearing apart those passwords in very little time, very cool. So very happy you liked my video my friend, thank you.
@@ThisBytesForYou The application I use is a very high end (and thus expensive) suite specifically written to utilize all CUDA cores on the operation. You are correct. Have a good one my friend.
Thank you! Exactly what I needed for installing my Sapphire Radeon Nitro+ RX 590! I haven't built a computer in 15-20 years and things have changed a lot! Now, I'm looking up some of your other videos on hooking fans up and cabling in general. I love your step-by-step approach and that you show exactly what to look for and what it looks like.
Awesome my friend, so very happy you enjoyed it. Thank you so much for stopping by and checking it out, liking and subbing as well as commenting, it means the world to me.
That's so awesome, I love hearing I helped someone, I love helping. So how much are you loving that shiny new beast. What kind of card did you come from.... Wait.. egpu... Are you powering a laptop with that beast?
@@arnoldbliss6238 ahhhh nice, I will be reaching out to them to see if they will allow me to review it, this might be cool and if I do get it, I will make sure to mention you in the videos ;) Thank you my friend, this might be cool but I am so happy I could help you, who knows, aside from your support here, you may have helped land a great review ;)
Im waiting on my new pc parts to arrive and this is the graphics card i chose. I'll make sure to rewatch the video if i have any problems installing drivers etc. Very helpful video for us newbies out there, keep up the good work :D!
you are so very welcome my friend, and I am so very happy you like the video and I do hope it helps. You are the very reason I make these, I want to help people just starting out because when I started, I wanted/needed help and no one would help me, so it took a long time, internet had just started, man I sound old hahaha. But anyway, I was a newbie at some point, everyone was a newbie at some point and you have made the exciting step forward and I am so VERY happy I could help you on that. Please remember, if you need any help, just ask and/or search my site, chances are I have already done it, if not, you could give me a great idea for a new video ad I will definitely mention you for the idea during the video. Thanks again for your kind words and I hope nothing but the best for you.
thank you i needed to watch this. I'm ordering a pc and a GPU so i needed this. plus i have never had a pc before and don't know how to do this stuff so this video helped.
awesome my friend, so very happy I could help you. I have nearly 400 videos, most of them are how to PC guides like this, I hope you subscribe and check out what more we have to offer you. We come out with new videos every Monday, I am sure we have more for you and if we are missing something, let me know, I might make a video on it.
Thank you so much for letting me know I have helped you and for stopping by and watching the video. I am so very happy I could help you. I have tons of these types of videos and getting ready to record another potentially next weekend.

The BIOS switch allows you to switch between Boost and Silent operation modes. Boost allows it to run as fast as possible and Silent, powers it down a bit, making it quieter but slightly slower.
Anytime my friend, but there is no gsync tax anymore since freesync works with gsync now. Thank you much for stopping by and checking out the video, and even more for commenting, it means the world to me

2019, (which is when this was filmed and tested) at 1920 x 1080 yes, all day long, anyone that recommends any card passed 2019 is lying to you, no one knows what tomorrow brings, what game tomorrow will be released with AMAZING graphical accomplishments. What game are you looking to play and at what resolution?
@@ThisBytesForYou i'm very interested in play Cyberpunk77 but right now i have a Lot of games that i can't play because my graphic card is too old, it's the 660ti so i don't know either buy this one the 590 or wait until the 2020 umm 🤔😣 i'd like in fullhd
@@jeisongarzon6066 so the 590 is a great card, but the highest it will do playable is 1920x1080 with just about everything on. If you want to play at 2K and above, you will need a better card. For Cyberpunk, it should work, here are the system specifications Minimum Requirements, Predicted OS: Win 7 64 Processor: Intel Core i5-2500K 3.3GHz / AMD FX-8320 Graphics: AMD Radeon R9 380 or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 2GB VRAM: 2GB System Memory: 8 GB RAM Storage: 70 GB Hard drive space DirectX 11 Compatible Graphics Card
Recommended Requirements, Predicted OS: Win 10 64 Processor: Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz / AMD Ryzen R5 1600 Graphics: AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 Nano 8GB or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 VRAM: 6GB System Memory: 16 GB RAM Storage: 70 GB Hard drive space I would recommend 1080ti and above, sadly the Vega 64 is currently the highest and it performs on par with a 1070 at times with a standard 1080 (non TI). If you like I can recommend a 20xx series card if you are looking to buy now.
You are so very welcome my friend, I. So happy I could help you. Thank you for letting me know, it means a ton to me. Please let me know how it goes for you.
You started out wrong. First things you do are to turn the PC off and then, unplug it from the wall. I'm not trying to be a smarta$$ or confrontational. I only mention it because your vid seems to be meant for those who have little or no experience with any kind of PC assembly. I actually wanted to see how the card looked in the case I'm buying with it as part of a new build. Nice rig btw.
yeah I guess you are right, I do make my videos for those who do not have experience and maybe to help some that do have experience but might be confused about something, so I will mention that on my next one. Thank you so much for checking out the video and for commenting, it means the world to me.
@@ThisBytesForYou Thank you for understanding that I wanted to be helpful, not critical. I saw the way you corrected yourself in the vid concerning locking down the vid card with the screws before inserting the 8 and 6 pin connectors. That and the camera shots of how the retainer tab reacts to the video card insertion told me that you wanted to be as detailed as possible. Forgetting to power off and disconnect is sooo common, but can be so important. I work on factory equipment and LOTO (Lock Out, Tag Out) is a way of life. It says good things about you as a person that you care enough to be so detailed in your examples and explanations. Wish there were more like you frankly.
@@cy2087 thank you so much my friend for being so well thought out on your reply and for helping, I take everything as helpful unless there is not possible way for the message to be construed as helpful, haha. Yeah one of the main reasons I started doing videos is out of frustration and out of life lessons. I used to train people how to build PC's and use them so that got me interested and when I watched a video to do something, they would skip so much, because they knew how to do it, and didn't think about the reason they made the video, to show others, so I try to be as detailed as possible and show angles if possible but being that I don't go off of scripts or anything like that, it's easy to forget things. I will try my hardest to do this for the next video because you are right, it is 100% necessary to power down when doing this. Actually last night, I was replacing an M.2 PCIE SSD doing some testing, and while the system was completely shut down, but not disconnected, as I was swapping the card, my system decided to turn out, I freaked and quickly flipped the switch off, but that was scary. So yeah, next one ;) I will make sure to mentioned you... if I can remember haha. Thanks again my friend.
@@ThisBytesForYou Lol, thanks for the compliment. Given that you used to train others and I haven't done my first build yet, (trying to get the cash) I'll be watching for your 'training vids'. Glad that mishap last night didn't lead to an injury or equipment loss. I've also heard that you should alwys wear an anti-static bracelet or touch the case frequently to discharge and make sure you don't short out components while working on your system. Anyway, glad to hear back and hope to see more vids in the future.
well thats great to hear my friend, thank you. Since you are starting off, you may want to look into 2 series' I have recorded, one of which (The Darkest Light build) I am still working on. These play lists provide unboxings of each product in the build as well as how to install each piece from the ground up, it might help you.

Thanks again my friend, I so appreciate you stopping by and the conversation is great ;)
you are so very welcome my friend, very happy I could help you. Thank you so much for stopping by and checking out my video, and even more for commenting, it means the world to me.
I have a gtx 1060 3gb card and I’ve decided to upgrade to this card. My 1060 3gb has lower performance than id like and had stuttering at high settings. I also love to take care of my components so i never put the settings too high due to its low VRAM. The 8gb would help a lot and the smart fans on this system would help my cards fans last longer. Do you know if this card is powerful enough to do little streaming? I stream with 720p 30-60fps and a few small icons. I havent set up my stream yet but i dream is to one day become a “influencer” Its a dumb name for a internet streamer/ overall content creater. Also when i change cards will i have to delete my Nvidia drivers, updates, and apps like my g-force experience app? Oh, and I subscribed. Edit::::Oh, i got this card and hated the experience. Im getting a 1660 instead now. Another edit:::: things haven’t gone as planned sadly, i think the original card i got was defective. I’m still using the 1060 but hope to upgrade eventually.
Hello my friend, thank you so much for stopping by, checking out the video, commenting and subbing, it means the world to me. Upgrading to this card will provide you with more performance, but it would be a miniscule performance increase, to see a better improvement, maybe you might want to think about a 1660ti the cost will only be slightly more. You can find one here on Amazon: geni.us/ayWQB If you have purchased it already, no problem the increase in VRAM will help, but again you will see a better improvement with the 1660TI. Both cards will allow you to stream at 720 or higher, I would try to get to 60fps, at 30fps you vidoes and viewers will experiences chuggy videos. Please let me know when/if you do upgrade to any of the card, i will definitely sub to you and I congratulate you and wish you the very best in becoming an influencer, its a rough road and takes a lot of commitment but if you set your mind to it, you can do anything. As for drivers, yes, you will need to remove everything , use DDU like I showed you here and it will take care of it all, of course you will ned to changed it form AMD to NVIDIA. DDU is amazing. Thanks again my friend and I wish you nothing but the best.
@@JHorse508 JHorse508 yeah it is, but he already has a 1060, so I recommended instead of him wasting his money (waste in my opinion) getting the same card only slightly increasing the RAM, to get a 1660 instead, then he will see tons more performance and double his RAM. So it would be the regular cost he was going to spend on the 590, but get more performance and only pay about $30 more.
Im doing crossfire for my first build that I’m doing in a couple months; I decided to go with 2 - xfx Radeon rx 570s 4gb. Together would these be enough power to run pretty much any game I want ? It’s going in with my ryzen 5 2600x
well yes and no and I will explain. Sadly, with Crossfire, it's not as supported as it use to be, there is little performance gain, very little, if at all possible. Although, the card is affordable right now. What resolution are you gaming in?
@@themilkman9360 no worries my friend, I am here no matter what haha. So at 1920x1080, I think you should be good, will you have at least 16Gigs of RAM? Also, I would say you would be playing your games at medium quality settings
ThisBytesForYou my brother has a friend who’s a computer science major, he builds stuff like this for fun so he’ll over clock for me but he’s been to busy to tell me bench mark capabilities, it will be water cooled however
you are so very welcome my fried, so very happy I could help. thank you so much for checking out my video and for commenting, it means the world to me.
@@ΚωσταςΠολυκανδριτης thank you so much my friend, I truly appreciate your kind words. Honestly, comments like your is what keeps me going, sadly I get so many negative comments that I want to stop, but every so often someone like you comes around that just makes me feel good again, thank you.
slowly but surely my friend, it all start with 1 dollar, even one penny, save today to get started tomorrow. Save 1 dollar a day, you have 365 dollars at the end of the year, save more and earn more. Saving 5 dollars a week, you saved 260 dollars. When i was a kid, when I got home from school, I would drop all my change in a bucket, at the end of the year I would roll it all up and take it to the bank, I made 220 in one year,... I was a kid but I would sometimes not eat my lunch to save lunch money, you can start any time. How much loose change do you have laying around your house/apartment/room right now, throw it all in a jar/bucket/bottle and save.
So, as I state in the video, I do this to show people how to remove their older cards, it in no way means I say the 590 is better than the a 2080, obviously it is not. It could have been a 2080 TI, a 5060, a 1080, 680, etc, it was just an example.
Hi, i have two questions. 1) Is it still good for 2020 ? 2) Do you need to have both 6&8 pin connected for it to work or you can connect one and it will work slower but work ?
Hello my friend, yes it still is a good card and the instructions are good, but there are much better cards obviously, this would be good for 1080P gaming. As for the cables, yes, you always need to connect all the PCIE connections they hard PCIE connections for. It may work without it, but there will be a point that you have issues, a game may crash, your system might reboot while gaming when the card requires more power than you have given it. Not that it will work slower without it, just that you will have issues.
Always a pleasure my friend, so very happy you stopped by, trusted in me to help you, liked and subbed as well as took a moment out of your day to thank me. It means a ton to me and I am so very happy I could help you.
Thank you so much for your kind words and support my friend, it means the world to me and I am so very happy I could help you, I hope you have a great day as well.
Hello, I know this is an older video but I purchased an RX580 used recently, to my surprise after plugging everything in and turning on it immediately started to work and i downloaded the newest AMD driver for it and installed on my system. I was gaming for a couple days on it going easy with graphic settings playing APEX. Everything seemed fine until I adjusted the graphics in-game up just a bit to see how it handled and mid game the entire PC went black dead no lights from tower except ONE flicker of led when I completely purge power and attempt to turn on. I thought it may have been power issue since temps were not at a crazy high level (around 71 C) so I replaced with new EVGA 650 BQ psu. Hit the button and got nothing still. so I Removed rx580 and put back my nividia and it powered up, but no video from GPU PCI slots in BIOS all say empty. I removed the NIVIDIA and reinstalled the RX580 and this time it the system did power up, but bios still doesn't detect any GPU. After watching your video to try to figure this out i realize I only plugged in the 8 pin PCIe power cable and not the both the 6 pin and 8 pin but it was working for days. My question is could this have damaged the RX580 GPU altogether or my PCI port since the NIVIDIA isn't detected either the computer still works perfectly using the internal Intel VGA port. This is long i know but I just dont know which step to trouble shoot now. thanks for your time.
No, I doubt it would have damaged anything doing this, it just would not have provided enough power and not work correctly. I would think maybe it got zapped by esd if maybe you were on a carpet moving around a lot or maybe the card was already dying. Another thing is maybe you did not push it in enough into the pcie slot? And no worries my friend, so very happy I could help.
@@ThisBytesForYou Happy New Year! So I'm guessing since bios say nothing is in the PCIe slots with the rx580 or the gtx 1050 that the damage has happened to my MOBO PCIe slot? My gtx 1050 was perfectly fine before I made the swap.
@@jmmaverick3355 man that is horrible, it does sound that way though. How are you seeing it in the bios that it is not there, are you using onboard video?
@@jmmaverick3355 the only thing I am thinking (and I commented this to someone else thinking I commented it to you last night) was maybe in moving things maybe walking across the carpet or something was you could have caused ESD, electro static discharge that could have zapped your motherboard. Without know exactly what you did, it is hard to say, can you verify all the power cables are securly plugged into the board, cpu power, 24Pin power, power to the CPU, so strange, wish you lived near by
Why did u choose AMD gpu on ddu to clean the drivers? I'm upgrading from 1050 ti to AMD and this is confusing me so when I come to this point I should choose Nvidia drivers to be cleaned right?
I might have chosen it in correct, but if you had an AMD before, and you are installing NVIDIA now, you want to uninstall AMD Drivers, you want to uninstall the previous drivers but it would not hurt if you did all 3, Intel, AMD and NVIDIA. So in your case, since you had a 1050TI, you would uninstall NVIDIA, but again, all 3 would be good too. So what card did you end up getting?
Hello i just have a question i just build my pc and run same card as you but my fans are not spinning then i mean the fans on the card are thoose only supposted to spin when need.?
Always a pleasure my friend, so very happy you stopped by, trusted in me to help you, liked and subbed as well as took a moment out of your day to thank me. It means a ton to me and I am so very happy I could help you.
sounds good bud, and thank you, I hope you enjoyed the video. I have newer videos too, this is a very old one, I have upgraded my camera, lighting and microphone, even settings quite a few times since then, you will find my production quality much better on my newer videos. As always though, new or old video, if you have any questions, please do let me know.
I've got a problem, this gpu is too thick and my pcie x16 is close to RAM slots, so everytime I push it, gpu pushes that RAM switch. Is it safe to remove that back panel?
@@BloopNessY I remember that board well. if you have a dremel, you can shave the edge off of the memory lever, you know how it sticks out slightly, just make sure to cover the pcie slots and the dimm slots, anything that is open, where plastic can fall into, cover it, that should allow you to fit the card in.
@@BloopNessY yeah it is a good budget board, a bit older but there is nothing wrong with that. I believe I had to certify that for one of our retail launches back in the day. So very happy I could help, please let me know how it goes.
Wich is the minimum power supply I'll need? I'm looking forward to upgrade to the RX 590 Oh and at 12:34 I got a little confused for example now I have a GTX 1050 ti so instead of AMD I should select Nvidia right? And will I get the 2 free games promotion for buying a RX 580 or + right? Nice vid mate!!!
hello my friend, sorry it took me so long to reply, I usually reply within minutes but it looks like I missed this one. The suggested power supply is 500Watts, and you need to make sure you have both PCI-e connections to plug into the card, the 6 pin and the 8pin. As for your card, if the card you have in the machine now, that you are removing to install this card, you have to select NVIDIA to remove the older NVIDIA drivers you had installed. I don't see that they are giving away the games anymore though sadly. Thank you so much for the compliment, I do appreciate it, I hope I helped you in this reply.
@@arunberlin yeah that is nice, didn't know about that one. If you do end up buying it, please use my Amazon Affiliated link for it, it would help me tons: geni.us/2VpaLI and you are very welcome my friend, always happy to help.
IT came with the power supply, in this case: Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1200W PSU: geni.us/7hdBk but now I am using this one: th-cam.com/video/Dv1qK2phCFM/w-d-xo.html
Thank you so much. My cooling fan not working I though it has a problem, then heard once the temperature reaches to 60 degrees then colling will start.
sadly I could not finish reviewing the card to give you an answer on that, I had to send it back quickly for some reason. I am not disagreeing with you on the RTX2060, but again, I could not finish the review, so I cannot give you a good answer.
@@ThisBytesForYou I bought last year a Sapphire RX560 4GB, I changed the thermal pads on the card and I covered the vr ram modules with pads also+ changed the thermal paste with Artic Silver 5 with a custom 120 mm fan and I can run the card full load 78°C fan speed at 50% but the hustle doesn't worth it. Before this custom cooling system the card was thermal throttled at 100% fan speed.
@@d4nith3 I can say from my testing it did not hit 80, and I played with everything bumped up to Max at 1080p, the card was not hot and I don't remember the temps hitting 80. Not sure what card you had but this card kept it's cool nicely. I wish I could have finished the review so I could give you some more scores , temps and power consumed. Who made your card and what was the model?
Try using DDU to uninstall your older drivers, if you had NVIDIA in iyour machine previously, use the same method to remove the nvidia drivers as well, you can follow my guide in the link below. Then, download and update to the latest drivers and let me know if that helps. th-cam.com/video/clLYbBywhAg/w-d-xo.html
hi, im building a computer for my niece, and i have a question, the cables you connect to the video card are from the power suply?, mine dosnt have cables and i have to buy one i guess
I would be more than happy to help you my friend. Could you please let me know who makes your power supply and the model one?

@@keikakudoori good morning my friend, looking into the specs, I see that the power supply brings 6 x 6+2-Pin PCIe cables, so if you still have the box, they might be inside,if you lost them, then you could probably order new ones from corsair, just email their support site: help.corsair.com/hc/en-us/requests/new. its a good power supply, but its not cheap: geni.us/LKZy.

@@akmalahmad1349 ahhh that is great news to hear my friend, I am so very happy I could help. Have you considered then potentially going with a 1070, 1080 or a 2060, 2070, might those be easier to find, those will perform just about this card? Not trying to push you away from AMD/Sapphire at all, but these might be better solutions for you and maybe cheaper too
@@akmalahmad1349 haha, well thankfully since most of those card are RGB, you can light them blue another option I see many do is spray paint, but I am personally not a fan of it
i had the same graphic card, i want ask something, so i just plug 8pin without the 6 pin, but it work well. now... what is the worst case could happen ?
no, you need to plug in both. The worst that could happen is when that card reaches 100% use, the machine may shut down, you may receive artifacting, blue screens and the likes.
@@pancamaingame6610 a dual 6+2 or a single x8 PCIE connection, yes that would be it. it should already be part of your power supply. What manufacture and model number power supply do you have? Be careful, because there is a CPU 8Pin cable as well.
hey do i really need to plug in both the 6 pin and the 8 pin connector? my psu which is a coolermaster 600w has only one 6 pin and i have an adaptor to 8 pin so will i have a problem if i only plug the 8 pin?
yes, you will need to plug it in. it may work without it, but once the power thershold is met where it requires the 2nd connection, it will bluescreen or worse. what is your power supply manufacturer and model number?
@@soukos39 awesome, thank you so much for letting me know you got it working. Thank you so much for your kind words, I truly appreciate it and I also wish the best for you and yours.
no my friend, that is for NVIDIA cards but you can Crossfire them for sure, check them on out my Amazon affiliate link: geni.us/CWSOO8N. Now, while this is a great card, have you see then RX 5700, I think that might be better for you, check out my review here: th-cam.com/video/JNxiv21qcLs/w-d-xo.html, much better performance than a 590, for only a little more, and you don't need to crossfire them.
Well, what kind of power supply do you have, manufacturer and model name and what are your PC specifications? Do you have both the 6 Pin and 8Pin connector installed?
sorry my friend, I am not sure what you mean? You haven't inserted the 6 and 8 pins? If you did not, the card would not work. Please rephrase your question.
I have a question my friend bought a new rx 580 8gb and he got a PCI-E Dual 6pin Female to 8 pin Male Video Card Power Adapter and i bought the same card but it was used and i didint get it... do i need the adapter or i can plug it straight in to the psu

hey man, i have a really stupid question, the hdmi cable from the monitor need to be connected to the hdmi port of the graphics card and not the motherboard right?
Not a stupid question at all. You would not believe how many people do this and get upset because it doesn't work and don't ask about it. So it may work if you plan on using both onboard graphics and another gpu together but if you want to use the power of the add-on card you will want to plug the monitor into the graphics card, not the motherboard.

@@franklittle5945 It looks like that card has a x6 connection, you will also need a x8 connection. What is the manufacturer and model number of your power supply?
Hmmm, I wouldn't know where to go with that, retail machines usually have lower end power supplies. Can you tell if it is a regular sized power supply or is it smaller?
Not sure if you still respond to comments but, I have an RX 580 Sapphire Nitro+ but I've been running it by plugging in an 8-pin PCIe connector only, I haven't used the 6-pin, silly question, but does that greatly affect the performance of my card?
If TH-cam delivers the notification, I always respond my friend, from my very first video till my last, I always respond, will be making a video on that shortly as well. Yes, it can affect performance, you may not be getting the full performance of your card and even worse, you may be experiencing bluescreens, lowered performance and more. If your card has 1, 2, 3. 4 PCIE connectors, ALWAYS plug them in. I hope this helps you my friend.

Not sure why people fight this so much, check out this video, I talk about why it's important, even though it's an nvidia cards: th-cam.com/video/ouG8c-lBgV4/w-d-xo.html
yes, download and use DDU in safe mode to uninstall the APU drivers then shut down the machine. install the GPU, then turn on the machine with the monitor cable connected to the GPU and enter the BIOS. Disable the APU in the BIOS, then save and exit and install the newer GPU drivers in the OS. There are times that the APU will need to be used when entering the BIOS as the auto detect may not be selected, but you will surely know if you are not getting video. Please let me know how this works out for you.
It's bottleneck imo, I have Ryzen 5 1600. Got 60fps on CSGO while 200+ on R5. CSGO/DOTA are cpu-intensive games though. But if you want to get the most out of your 590, consider upgrading your processor.
@@Kenjn_DJ any game is cpu intensive if the resolution is set low. You will get over 60fps if you have your vsync is on, turn vsync off. Its not a bottle neck for the video card, I promise. I recommend using DDU to uninstall all of the older drivers then installing the latest and greatest and make sure vsync is off and your onboard gpu is disabled
What about Vega 8? do i have to do what you did or do i just uninstall drivers and add a new one? u said to restart and download ddu if i have a previous graphics card but i don't have that just the integrated graphics that comes with ryzen 3200g
It sounds like you have older hardware, normally I would always recommend to DDU the system, but with the current issues with the AMD drivers and windows, I would say go ahead and update from within the software.
Mate i had an old gigabyte card. I didnt even had to connect it on the power supply. Now i got a nitro rx580. Does evrry power supplier has 8 pin connections?
Hello my friend, no not every powersupply has an 8Pin connection, some don't even have 6 Pin connections. Can you let me know the power supply manufacturer and model number?
Friend, want to ask you something i wanted to buy this card this or 580 sapphire nitro thats kinda same, but i heard that they are noisy and temperatures are pretty high, did you encountered some problems with this card and should i pair this card with r5 2600 or gtx 1660s?
no issues with this card or the 590, I had one issue with the newer driver, but I resolved that and created a video on it as well. I would probably go for the 1660, above the 580 though.
@@ThisBytesForYou I heard that people would go for 1660ti rather 1070ti, cause its newer tech, i cant really decide, but used 1070ti Is much cheaper than used 1660ti Price tag Is around 200$.
@@voste2093 yes, it is newer tech, the 1660 and a TINY bit slower than the 1070, so just see which one you can get, a 2060 would be so much better to get though if you could.
hey i know this video is a bit old but I'm here to tell a problem I had on my rx580 nitro +. When I installed the drivers my card just shut down and then the screen started turning on and off. It runs fine without the driver but when I install it, it does that.
Try running DDU to remove all of your old drivers, and then reinstall your latest driver, you can see my video on how to do this, let me know on how it goes. Also, you never have to worry about how old a video is, I reply to all my comments: th-cam.com/video/clLYbBywhAg/w-d-xo.html
Hello there, I just bought a rx580 and I was about to install it today but I noticed my PSU has only one 8(6+2) connector. It's 500w and on the box of the rx580 it says it's enough so is it ok to just attach a Y splitter 8pin to two 8(6+2) pin?
yes, 500 watts is the recommendation for the card, but rather than split the 8Pin, which may consume too much power, why don't you get something like this, so you can use your molex connections: geni.us/sVDjbp. I would recommend you plug one of the 2 molex connections (one adapter brings 2 molex adapters) into one strand of molex cables on your power supply and the other molex connection on another strand, to make sure the power is distributed evenly, then plug that into the video card.
Hello i would like to ask can i install this video card in old Motherboard X58 which is using processor Intel I7 920 first generation i currently use radeon HD 5870 2GB
Just got confirmation from sapphire that it will work, the card does not require uefi which the x58 chipset does not have, that was my worry but you are good my friend

Have you tried to see if the fans are working with the Sapphire TRIXX fan tester to see if the fans are working? If they are, you can always set a FAN curve and the fans at a level you are comfortable with. After I think 60°C, the fans turn on. Please let me know if any of this helps.
with any video card you purchase, if it has 2, they both need to be plugged in, if it has 3, all 3 need to be plugged in, all of them need to be plugged in.
Hi , sir . So i have an rx 580 8g sapphire edition , and im wondering if im supposed to place both 8 and 6 pins, or 8 pins alone ?? because i only used the 8 pins , but i faced a problem which is the pc reboots whenever i start a game . Do u think that this is the problem and i have to use both 8 and 6 pins together to fix my it??
If you see 2 or 3 or 4 on a card, they always need to be connected. As for the crashing, that could be it, not receiving enough power, make sure to get the VERY latest driver, it fixes a bunch of issues.
i need this tutorial but with a new boot. my rx590 wont connect to any monitor or tv with hdmi or vga and im using the tomahawk. nothing will connect so i cant even run the boot drive
ok, so when you install the card, then insert the 6 Pin and 8Pin PCIE cables. After that, you connect the monitor/TV using the HDMI/VGA cable to the video card,... not the motherboard. I know it sounds dumb, but this is a VERY common mistake.
@@ThisBytesForYou uh i have not been using the motherboard hdmi. It might be a monitor problem here, im getting a display port to hdmi instead of vga now. Currently on 3rd trip to walmart

I just finished my PC build and while everything works great I’m curious, should I run two individual cables for the 6 & 8 pin connectors or using a single cable with two connectors 6+2 & 8 work fine? I have a EVGa 750w G3.

Let me know how everything turns out when you are done, very curious and of course, if you are running into any issues, let me know I will try my hardest to help.
Yup, they spin up when they hit about 60 degrees or so, so yeah, you are good. I like to set a higher fan curve so they are always on. I made a video on this as well, different card but same effect.
you might want to look a little closer, I am seeing that power supply has 2 x 6+2 connections. If anything maybe this would work for you: geni.us/oTB2G2
thank you so much for stopping by, checking out my video and commenting, it means the world to me.

Trust me this video is so helpfull for me i have changed my gpu from 1050ti to rx 590 and i am so confused but this video helped me alot
Always a pleasure my friend, so very happy you stopped by, trusted in me to help you, liked and subbed as well as took a moment out of your day to thank me. It means a ton to me and I am so very happy I could help you.
Is it a good upgrade? I have a 1050ti
As a mechanic with 5 years experience i was like: oh my god how over detailed is he demonstrating the install to the mainboard.. But as he came to the part of installing the software i really had to concentrate to understand what he is doing but i think that dudes with windows experience feel vice versa to how i felt haha 😂 To be honest i didn't even know that you had to do that.
I ordered a pc 4 days ago wich is kinda good but has a poor gpu and it didn't even arive yet so i already ordered the amd rx590 nitro+ so i can get started right away.
Good video
so, I get kinda mixed feelings on this, I think you liked it haha but I am not sure. Yes, I like to go into a lot of detail as to make sure not to miss anything, I know some people don't have experience while others have tons, so I try to help all and I try to take it to basics, so I am happy I could help you installing the drivers. You mentioned you had to concentrate on a portion, was something I was going over too complicated, I will be doing another video like this very soon (this weekend, and I want to make sure I cover it all.).
Thank you so much for your compliment on the video, I really do try hard and I want to make sure I get it perfect, so any input you could provide would be great. Thank you my friend.
@@ThisBytesForYou oh no need for mixed feelings the video was great, i just have no idea yet how to deal with this stuff in general but you explained it very well.
And yes for me it is to detailed but as you said, that way everyone gets it :)
@@jdmweeb1203 that's awesome, thank you so much my friend, for your kind words, it means a ton to me and I am so happy I could help.
@@ThisBytesForYou ur welcome
I legit thought there were water drops at first on the fan blades of that 2080 when you turned it over. That's a funky fan design.
nice, I didn't think they were water drops, I thought they were rips of 2 plastic pieces being assembled together then pulled apart, but when I looked closer it was part of their design, very cool of you to notice it too. Thank you so much for stopping by, checking out the video and even more for commenting, it means a ton to me. Thanks again my friend.
@@ThisBytesForYou Absolutely. Though I don't necessarily need help installing a card (I'm a computer forensic examiner), I did just buy an RX580 Nitro in blue (personal use, I have a quad 1080Ti setup at work to assist in password breaking operations) and wanted to comment on the fan blades. Maybe it's for aesthetic reasons only, but maybe it helps the overall CFM of the fan. Regardless, interesting video. Well done.
@@Pavewy I would think it would overall create more noise (dba), breaking apart the air which still may not be a bad thing, I am sure they researched it tons. Very nice rig at work CUDA is working out for you nicely. I built 2 VERY high end workstations for the CDC in 2012, each had 8 Tesla 2080's in (maybe they were 2050's) and I got to run one of their simulations for testing, CUDA destroyed that applications (I can't speak of what the test was) it ran VERY smooth. If your application for password breaking is written for CUDA, it is tearing apart those passwords in very little time, very cool. So very happy you liked my video my friend, thank you.
@@ThisBytesForYou The application I use is a very high end (and thus expensive) suite specifically written to utilize all CUDA cores on the operation. You are correct.
Have a good one my friend.
@@Pavewy ahhh very cool, CUDA is awesome, glad you are taking advantage of it. i hope you have a good one too my friend ;)
Thank you! Exactly what I needed for installing my Sapphire Radeon Nitro+ RX 590! I haven't built a computer in 15-20 years and things have changed a lot!

I just built my first PC using this GPU. Can you explain more about the bios switch. thanks
The BIOS switch allows you to switch between Boost and Silent operation modes. Boost allows it to run as fast as possible and Silent, powers it down a bit, making it quieter but slightly slower.

You'd recommend me this card for a few years like 2019-2021 in fhd maybe 2k ? Thank you
2019, (which is when this was filmed and tested) at 1920 x 1080 yes, all day long, anyone that recommends any card passed 2019 is lying to you, no one knows what tomorrow brings, what game tomorrow will be released with AMAZING graphical accomplishments. What game are you looking to play and at what resolution?
@@ThisBytesForYou i'm very interested in play Cyberpunk77 but right now i have a Lot of games that i can't play because my graphic card is too old, it's the 660ti so i don't know either buy this one the 590 or wait until the 2020 umm 🤔😣 i'd like in fullhd
@@jeisongarzon6066 so the 590 is a great card, but the highest it will do playable is 1920x1080 with just about everything on. If you want to play at 2K and above, you will need a better card. For Cyberpunk, it should work, here are the system specifications
Minimum Requirements, Predicted
OS: Win 7 64
Processor: Intel Core i5-2500K 3.3GHz / AMD FX-8320
Graphics: AMD Radeon R9 380 or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 2GB
VRAM: 2GB
System Memory: 8 GB RAM
Storage: 70 GB Hard drive space
DirectX 11 Compatible Graphics Card
Recommended Requirements, Predicted
OS: Win 10 64
Processor: Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz / AMD Ryzen R5 1600
Graphics: AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 Nano 8GB or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070
VRAM: 6GB
System Memory: 16 GB RAM
Storage: 70 GB Hard drive space
I would recommend 1080ti and above, sadly the Vega 64 is currently the highest and it performs on par with a 1070 at times with a standard 1080 (non TI). If you like I can recommend a 20xx series card if you are looking to buy now.
@@jeisongarzon6066 Wait for the RX5500XT
You can only wait for so long, this was 3 months ago my friend
I’m about to install following your guide thanks!
You are so very welcome my friend, I. So happy I could help you. Thank you for letting me know, it means a ton to me. Please let me know how it goes for you.
so how'd it go my friend?
You started out wrong. First things you do are to turn the PC off and then, unplug it from the wall. I'm not trying to be a smarta$$ or confrontational. I only mention it because your vid seems to be meant for those who have little or no experience with any kind of PC assembly. I actually wanted to see how the card looked in the case I'm buying with it as part of a new build. Nice rig btw.
yeah I guess you are right, I do make my videos for those who do not have experience and maybe to help some that do have experience but might be confused about something, so I will mention that on my next one. Thank you so much for checking out the video and for commenting, it means the world to me.
@@ThisBytesForYou Thank you for understanding that I wanted to be helpful, not critical. I saw the way you corrected yourself in the vid concerning locking down the vid card with the screws before inserting the 8 and 6 pin connectors. That and the camera shots of how the retainer tab reacts to the video card insertion told me that you wanted to be as detailed as possible. Forgetting to power off and disconnect is sooo common, but can be so important. I work on factory equipment and LOTO (Lock Out, Tag Out) is a way of life. It says good things about you as a person that you care enough to be so detailed in your examples and explanations. Wish there were more like you frankly.
@@cy2087 thank you so much my friend for being so well thought out on your reply and for helping, I take everything as helpful unless there is not possible way for the message to be construed as helpful, haha. Yeah one of the main reasons I started doing videos is out of frustration and out of life lessons. I used to train people how to build PC's and use them so that got me interested and when I watched a video to do something, they would skip so much, because they knew how to do it, and didn't think about the reason they made the video, to show others, so I try to be as detailed as possible and show angles if possible but being that I don't go off of scripts or anything like that, it's easy to forget things. I will try my hardest to do this for the next video because you are right, it is 100% necessary to power down when doing this.
Actually last night, I was replacing an M.2 PCIE SSD doing some testing, and while the system was completely shut down, but not disconnected, as I was swapping the card, my system decided to turn out, I freaked and quickly flipped the switch off, but that was scary. So yeah, next one ;) I will make sure to mentioned you... if I can remember haha. Thanks again my friend.
@@ThisBytesForYou Lol, thanks for the compliment. Given that you used to train others and I haven't done my first build yet, (trying to get the cash) I'll be watching for your 'training vids'. Glad that mishap last night didn't lead to an injury or equipment loss. I've also heard that you should alwys wear an anti-static bracelet or touch the case frequently to discharge and make sure you don't short out components while working on your system. Anyway, glad to hear back and hope to see more vids in the future.
well thats great to hear my friend, thank you. Since you are starting off, you may want to look into 2 series' I have recorded, one of which (The Darkest Light build) I am still working on. These play lists provide unboxings of each product in the build as well as how to install each piece from the ground up, it might help you.

As for the anti static wrist straps (I may have mentioned it) I don't ever use them, the are uncomfortable, I do always ground myself by touching the case, I mention it in most of these types of videos,... though I may not on all.
Thanks again my friend, I so appreciate you stopping by and the conversation is great ;)

you are so very welcome my friend, very happy I could help you. Thank you so much for stopping by and checking out my video, and even more for commenting, it means the world to me.
I have a gtx 1060 3gb card and I’ve decided to upgrade to this card. My 1060 3gb has lower performance than id like and had stuttering at high settings. I also love to take care of my components so i never put the settings too high due to its low VRAM. The 8gb would help a lot and the smart fans on this system would help my cards fans last longer. Do you know if this card is powerful enough to do little streaming? I stream with 720p 30-60fps and a few small icons. I havent set up my stream yet but i dream is to one day become a “influencer” Its a dumb name for a internet streamer/ overall content creater.
Also when i change cards will i have to delete my Nvidia drivers, updates, and apps like my g-force experience app?
Oh, and I subscribed.
Edit::::Oh, i got this card and hated the experience. Im getting a 1660 instead now.
Another edit:::: things haven’t gone as planned sadly, i think the original card i got was defective. I’m still using the 1060 but hope to upgrade eventually.
Hello my friend, thank you so much for stopping by, checking out the video, commenting and subbing, it means the world to me.
Upgrading to this card will provide you with more performance, but it would be a miniscule performance increase, to see a better improvement, maybe you might want to think about a 1660ti the cost will only be slightly more. You can find one here on Amazon: geni.us/ayWQB
If you have purchased it already, no problem the increase in VRAM will help, but again you will see a better improvement with the 1660TI.
Both cards will allow you to stream at 720 or higher, I would try to get to 60fps, at 30fps you vidoes and viewers will experiences chuggy videos.
Please let me know when/if you do upgrade to any of the card, i will definitely sub to you and I congratulate you and wish you the very best in becoming an influencer, its a rough road and takes a lot of commitment but if you set your mind to it, you can do anything.
As for drivers, yes, you will need to remove everything , use DDU like I showed you here and it will take care of it all, of course you will ned to changed it form AMD to NVIDIA. DDU is amazing.
Thanks again my friend and I wish you nothing but the best.
yeah the 1060 is a good card but 4 gb is necessary
@@JHorse508 JHorse508 yeah it is, but he already has a 1060, so I recommended instead of him wasting his money (waste in my opinion) getting the same card only slightly increasing the RAM, to get a 1660 instead, then he will see tons more performance and double his RAM. So it would be the regular cost he was going to spend on the 590, but get more performance and only pay about $30 more.

Hi, i have two questions.
1) Is it still good for 2020 ?
2) Do you need to have both 6&8 pin connected for it to work or you can connect one and it will work slower but work ?
Hello my friend, yes it still is a good card and the instructions are good, but there are much better cards obviously, this would be good for 1080P gaming.
As for the cables, yes, you always need to connect all the PCIE connections they hard PCIE connections for. It may work without it, but there will be a point that you have issues, a game may crash, your system might reboot while gaming when the card requires more power than you have given it. Not that it will work slower without it, just that you will have issues.

Hello, I know this is an older video but I purchased an RX580 used recently, to my surprise after plugging everything in and turning on it immediately started to work and i downloaded the newest AMD driver for it and installed on my system. I was gaming for a couple days on it going easy with graphic settings playing APEX. Everything seemed fine until I adjusted the graphics in-game up just a bit to see how it handled and mid game the entire PC went black dead no lights from tower except ONE flicker of led when I completely purge power and attempt to turn on. I thought it may have been power issue since temps were not at a crazy high level (around 71 C) so I replaced with new EVGA 650 BQ psu. Hit the button and got nothing still. so I Removed rx580 and put back my nividia and it powered up, but no video from GPU PCI slots in BIOS all say empty. I removed the NIVIDIA and reinstalled the RX580 and this time it the system did power up, but bios still doesn't detect any GPU. After watching your video to try to figure this out i realize I only plugged in the 8 pin PCIe power cable and not the both the 6 pin and 8 pin but it was working for days. My question is could this have damaged the RX580 GPU altogether or my PCI port since the NIVIDIA isn't detected either the computer still works perfectly using the internal Intel VGA port. This is long i know but I just dont know which step to trouble shoot now. thanks for your time.
No, I doubt it would have damaged anything doing this, it just would not have provided enough power and not work correctly. I would think maybe it got zapped by esd if maybe you were on a carpet moving around a lot or maybe the card was already dying. Another thing is maybe you did not push it in enough into the pcie slot? And no worries my friend, so very happy I could help.
@@ThisBytesForYou Happy New Year! So I'm guessing since bios say nothing is in the PCIe slots with the rx580 or the gtx 1050 that the damage has happened to my MOBO PCIe slot? My gtx 1050 was perfectly fine before I made the swap.

Why did u choose AMD gpu on ddu to clean the drivers? I'm upgrading from 1050 ti to AMD and this is confusing me so when I come to this point I should choose Nvidia drivers to be cleaned right?
I might have chosen it in correct, but if you had an AMD before, and you are installing NVIDIA now, you want to uninstall AMD Drivers, you want to uninstall the previous drivers but it would not hurt if you did all 3, Intel, AMD and NVIDIA. So in your case, since you had a 1050TI, you would uninstall NVIDIA, but again, all 3 would be good too. So what card did you end up getting?

hello my friend, sorry it took me so long to reply, I usually reply within minutes but it looks like I missed this one. The suggested power supply is 500Watts, and you need to make sure you have both PCI-e connections to plug into the card, the 6 pin and the 8pin. As for your card, if the card you have in the machine now, that you are removing to install this card, you have to select NVIDIA to remove the older NVIDIA drivers you had installed. I don't see that they are giving away the games anymore though sadly. Thank you so much for the compliment, I do appreciate it, I hope I helped you in this reply.

Have you tried to see if the fans are working with the Sapphire TRIXX fan tester to see if the fans are working? If they are, you can always set a FAN curve and the fans at a level you are comfortable with. After I think 60°C, the fans turn on. Please let me know if any of this helps.
or do you mean ANY fan in your computer?
Does gtx 1660s and 1660ti requires both 6 and 8 pin or just one 8 pin?
with any video card you purchase, if it has 2, they both need to be plugged in, if it has 3, all 3 need to be plugged in, all of them need to be plugged in.
Hi , sir . So i have an rx 580 8g sapphire edition , and im wondering if im supposed to place both 8 and 6 pins, or 8 pins alone ?? because i only used the 8 pins , but i faced a problem which is the pc reboots whenever i start a game . Do u think that this is the problem and i have to use both 8 and 6 pins together to fix my it??
If you see 2 or 3 or 4 on a card, they always need to be connected. As for the crashing, that could be it, not receiving enough power, make sure to get the VERY latest driver, it fixes a bunch of issues.
i need this tutorial but with a new boot. my rx590 wont connect to any monitor or tv with hdmi or vga and im using the tomahawk. nothing will connect so i cant even run the boot drive
ok, so when you install the card, then insert the 6 Pin and 8Pin PCIE cables. After that, you connect the monitor/TV using the HDMI/VGA cable to the video card,... not the motherboard. I know it sounds dumb, but this is a VERY common mistake.
@@ThisBytesForYou uh i have not been using the motherboard hdmi. It might be a monitor problem here, im getting a display port to hdmi instead of vga now. Currently on 3rd trip to walmart
@@ThisBytesForYou just got a display port adapter instead of vga, still not working. The only thing i haven't tried is the dvi to hdmi but id have to take another trip to the store again. Might just need a new monitor
@@thefreshvince879 aside from that monitor, do you have another you could be testing with, just to see?
@@ThisBytesForYou yeah ive used 2 diff hdmi tvs and a monitor
I just finished my PC build and while everything works great I’m curious, should I run two individual cables for the 6 & 8 pin connectors or using a single cable with two connectors 6+2 & 8 work fine? I have a EVGa 750w G3.
if the power supply provides a single cable that splits into 2, it can handle it, so you should be good. I am running the 1000W G3, and I love it. Let me know how everything turns out when you are done, very curious and of course, if you are running into any issues, let me know I will try my hardest to help.
Awesome Thank you!!! Everything works great no issues thankfully. I just noticed in some videos multiple cables vs one.
you are very welcome my friend, happy I could help.
So it’s normal when you’re fans don’t spin right off the bat and if it is can i play when there not spinning
Yup, they spin up when they hit about 60 degrees or so, so yeah, you are good. I like to set a higher fan curve so they are always on. I made a video on this as well, different card but same effect.
i have Trendy SRM PSU 650watts and has only 1 - 6+2 PCIE Connectors. what should i do?
you might want to look a little closer, I am seeing that power supply has 2 x 6+2 connections. If anything maybe this would work for you: geni.us/oTB2G2
Hey bro can you help me plz?
which power supply should I buy for i3-7100, rx590 8G
is 500w is enough?
thank you so much for stopping by, checking out my video and commenting, it means the world to me. SO this video card requires at least a 500Watt, so you are good, but you will also need an 8PIn PCIE connection as well as a 6Pin, you need both of those connected. If you are not sure if you have those, I can help, if you let me know the model number of maker of your power supply. I would be more than happy to help.
ThisBytesForYou is it possible to send you a photo of my power supply?
I don't know exactly what should i check
ThisBytesForYou golden tiger g&t atx-500wce-p4
this is the name?
sally, I cannot find good information on it, but I do see a pictre online, and it states that it is 450Watts real total output, but 500Watts Max, Max usually is only for a few seconds and then it shuts off. Here is an affordable 500WAtt, that has all the connections you need: geni.us/6wI9A, I hope that helps.
ThisBytesForYou Maybe should i buy with more watt, bcz that i have also a cpu etc?
what do you think?
What is your power supply does it come ready 8+6 pin for video card?
at the time, I was using the Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1200W PSU: geni.us/7hdBk, now I am using the beQuiet! 1000Watt Power Supply: geni.us/jEYLM79. Yes, all of my power supplies have multiple PCIe connection. You will need the 8 + 6 for this card though.
@@ThisBytesForYou I'm building a mid range pc(rx580-Rzen2600-16gb3200hz). But i think 1000w psu i thnk is too much for my rig. The only thing that i dont have is Psu because i don't know if it has 8+6pcie for my rx580. Is this Psu have 8+6 for my build amzn.to/2EQtHPi EVGA g3 750w(gold)?..
THANK YOU for reply. I'm just afraid buying the wrong hardware. LOVE YOU from PH 🇵🇭. Sorry my bad english.
Anytime my friend, always happy to help out where I can. A great reason why I always buy more power supply than I need is in the few years I have had it, I have not need to update it, the 1200 which still works today, I have had for 8 years I think, and the only reason I dont use that one is because bequiet sent me the 1000watt to review, and it is much better. Anything that comes my way, I should be able to handle and you only use as much power as your system needs, you dont use the 1000, or 1200watts until your system needs it, which it has never, but its there. The EVGA 750w gold is great, but if you could, please use my link, it will help me tons: geni.us/4MBz
Thanks my friend, and please let me know how the build goes for you and if you have any questions, i would be more than happy to help.
I only have 1 power port, a 2x8. I can’t find a 2x8 in my computer, would I have to buy a cable?
you would, you would want to get something like this: geni.us/oTB2G2, this would take an available SATA Power cable and make it 2 x 8Pin cables, I hope this helps. Also, how many watts does your power supply provide?
110 I think
@@thenitrit4298 its a 110Watt power supply... please make sure because that for sure will not work. Please if you can read to me the manufacture and the model number of the power supply.
Nvm. It was 550
@@thenitrit4298 haha you scared me, ok then you are fine... It's been eons since I have seen a 110Watt power supply, and I have been working on computers since the IBM 5150 haha. Thank you but you should be good with the adapter I linked up. I hope I have helped you my friend.
Hello friend! I've got the same GPU and I have some issues, I like to play a lot Batman Arkham series and, for some reason, Arkham Knight always crash. City and asylum don't have any trouble, but Arkham Knight I played only 10 minutes and my screen gets black... Do you have any suggestion for this?
So that I can help, please list the manufacturer and exact model number of the following components:
1. Motherboard - manufacturer and exact model number
2. CPU - manufacturer and exact model number
3. RAM - manufacturer and exact model number
4. Video Card - manufacturer and exact model number
5. Power supply - manufacturer and exact model number
6. Monitor - manufacturer and exact model number
Redundant I know, but many people forget to enter manufacturer and exact model number
7. Do you have ALL of the PCIE connections plugged in, and not daisy chained or pigtailed, each coming directly from the power supply?
8. Are you running through HDMI, DP, DVI, VGA, any adapters?
9. UEFI in the BIOS from Legacy. If it was set to Legacy, you will need to reinstall windows to get correct support.
10. Disable CSM in the BIOS
11. Installed latest supported chipset driver?
12. Have you disabled Fast Boot within Windows?

Hello good friend! Do you believe that I've format all my legacy system to UEFI and still arkham knight still drops? LOL! Instead, the other arkham series works... I don't to know what to do, my PC is not so weak to play games like that...
You don't need to format it, you can convert it like I show you in this video I linked above, and set your bios to uefi, you will need to update your driver's too and a bios update if possible.
Hi, I want to ask you if you know this.. I have this card, I have a 144hz monitor, I connect through a DL DVI port that it has, you know..
and to the monitor with that cable. but I get into the monitor menu and I check and it says that the monitor is running in 60hz.. Do you have any idea how to solve that problem? My monitor is an Asus 27 144hz, I think the exact model wouldnt change anything.. I heard in a video that nothing can be done inside the monitor, it has to be set up from the video driver.. do you know anything about that?
DVI can do 144 at 1080P, but you will need a Dual Link DVI cable, the exact model number might change something if we don't know for sure, so if you can get that, it migth help. Display Port will let you get 144Hz
@@ThisBytesForYou Hi, I solved this problem with this video: "Fix 144hz Monitor Only Showing 60hz". Now I will see 144hz for first time... lets see what happens.. will the video card get higher temperature?
@@capsuleboy cool, very happy I could help. No, you should not see higher temperatures, if anything 1 or 2 degrees.
