KN8 sli graphics card

Just built new system and all seems ok, apart from no graphics ( no signal on monitor)
I have a PCI-express x16 geforce card in slot PCI-E 01 and in non sli mode
The card is brand new and cannot test on another board.Have no other
PCI cards to try.
Card is connected to monitor only by vga cable.
Where do I start fixing this? Have I missed anything crucial?
I have switched memory - no joy.
Also I dont get any beeps when powered on,but maybe just have speaker wire on wrong.
Please help.

have you connected all power cables to the mainboard? (check for 4pin power cable for the CPU. ensure its connected to mainboard)
what show your D-Bracket?
try to pull out(disconnect D-Bracket from mainboard), and leave only one stick of your memory into DIMM slot closed to CPU socket.
pull back power cord from the PSU and Clear CMOS
pull back power cord and try to boot.

  • Qosmio X300-11W - SLI graphic cards in future

    Hi,
    Im thinking about this laptop. I want it as a replacement of desktop. It seems to be very very good but I have a question.
    There is now 9800GTX - does any one of you know if would be available to buy another SAME card to make it SLI?
    Also - speed of HDD. It doesnt say what speed is it. 5400 or 7200.
    Is there even some one who has some experiences with this laptop or do you know some websites which says something more about this one.
    Thanks

    Hi
    The X300 series is new on the market so I didnt find many sources which provide detailed infos about this notebook but I found some details. Thanks to google and to the Toshiba User Manual website (you can find it on the Toshiba European support homage) ;)
    > Also - speed of HDD. It doesnt say what speed is it. 5400 or 7200.
    There are 2 HDD installed and both seems to work with 5400rpm
    I didnt find any details regarding the SLI option and about the possibility to upgrade the notebook with the second GPU chip but I doubt this would be possible.

  • MSI Eclipse Plus, SLI, PCI and double hieght graphic cards.

    I'm intrested in building a system with the Eclipse Plus and 2 card sli setup.
    The manual states that for a 2 way sli, graphic cards should be placed in slots top 2 pci slots. MY graphic cards are double height so placing them in these slots would block out the only pci slot available which I need
    Is it possible to mount the graphic cards in the first and 3rd slot and still achieve sli?

    Are you sure about that PD?
    syrus will just have to give it a try. Please let us know if it works.

  • Can I use ATI graphics cards in SLI in MSI-7100?

    My stupid-question-ometer is going off the scale, but I don't know the answer; can I use ATI graphics cards in SLI in my machine?
    Also, whilst I'm at it, according to my knowledge, AMD are considered, in general, the lowest cost per unit power. Is it the same with ATI or nVidia - which generally offers best value?

    And can you refine your other question, please. For one, ATI and AMD is one company now. Intel and AMD/ATI mostly have processors that in normal run are equal, but Intel has more refined top-end processors. In benchmarks Intel's normally score higher.

  • Premiere Pro, Photoshop & Graphics Cards in SLI or Crossfire

    Simple question for those who are hardware knowledgable,
    Can a computer system that has dual graphics cards setup in SLI or Crossfire run Premiere Pro and Photoshop CS5.
    I am not looking at whteher it will get bonuses in editing or anything, just can it run?
    According to some on these forums it cannot at all but I am currently running both PS and Premiere Pro on a system with dual GTX 460 without issues.
    Do anyone else have dual cards in SLI or Xfire running these programs?

    Hi,
    I've tried this week installing two 6850 graphics cards with crossfire and using the latest Catalyst Control Centre (ver 13.something) and after effects worked fine but Premiere kept crashing big time. I then tried one graphics card with CCC (ver 13.something) and it still crashed. I had to use the CCC version 12 something that came with the graphics card in order to even get one card working and that doesn't seem to support the crossfire.
    Ouch is my response, anyone got any ideas?

  • MSI P7N SLI - PC Wont Boot - Video error code but changing graphics card no help

    ((Apologies, I think this should be in the forum for Intel Core 2 Duo/Quad boards))
    Hi. Brief description of the issue.
    Last Saturday there was fan noise. I ignored that, left the machine on, went out. By Sunday morning the machine had turned itself off. I opened it up, identified the problem as the graphics card fan, failed to fix but put the PC back on figuring I'd have to see about a new card soonish.
    Later on it had turned itself off again. Got to bios with a system32 config error. I figured that was why it'd been shutting off and went through the long process of manual recovery from that. Turned the computer on, all good, played games.
    Until I thought to check the GFX temp... 133 degrees Celcius. Turned it off right away, ordered replacement card - which has now arrived.
    But the machine won't boot at all. I get one long tone then two short. This is the same with both the old and the new cards. Blue light comes on, all the fans come on, then the beeps.
    But the 'long' isn't long like if it was a RAM issue. I'm googling AMI bios post codes and seeing 1 long + 2 short is a video error, but also that '3 beeps' is a memory problem.
    I've swapped my RAM sticks around and tried each stick individually and get the same beep code.
    I've reset the CMOS by holding in the button on the back for 5 seconds, with the power cable unplugged and after discharging the capacitors.
    The only other suggestions I've found is that it could be a failure of the PSU to power the card. But it should be giving ample power.
    Now I am stuck for ideas.
    MSI P7N SLI, MS-7380
    Intel Q6600
    Antec Neopower Blue Modular PSU
    Zotac 8800GT [OR Asus GTX 260 212]
    OCZ Platinum 2GB (2*1) DDR2 800
    Western Digital HDD
    LiteOn DVD Rom
    Windows XP

    With a 94000GT (no power connector from PSU) the machine is now running.
    But there's still a problem somewhere (and that's a pretty poor graphics card I don't want to be stuck with) so I'm still keen to find out what to do, or what's wrong.
    My 650W Antec with 2 12 volt rails should have no issues powering the other cards.

  • Msi p6n sli v2 graphics card compatibility

    Dear all,
    i have an P6N SLI V2 and a 9800GTX installed in it.
    I wana upgrade the graphics card but to do it i wana know if there is any incompatibility with the newer card or what cards will be compatible.
    Another question, wath is the version of my pci-e slot? v1.0 or 2.0.
    Thank you for you support
    Best Regards
    Pedro Alves

    It's a Gen1 PCI-E slot. Go for a NVidia card as AMD cards of Gen2 or 3 are known for compatibility issues when used in boards with a Gen1 slot. Any Nvidia should be fine. Newest GTX7xx vgas might cause issues though as those need a quite current bios even on current generation boards.

  • The Crew –Racing with Your Coolest MSI Gaming Motherboard and Graphics Card

    Most gaming fans are crazy about racing games, and there is a new game title just launched to fulfill gamers’ dream. We want to share with you the experience from Taiwan user who assembles a rig with a brand new MSI Z97 Gaming 5 motherboard and 960 graphics card, along with a hardware and game (The Crew) benchmarks. You may find the original article from:
    https://forum-tc.msi.com/index.php?topic=113352.0
    The Crew - Launch Trailer
    PC configuration:
    CPU: Intel i5-4670K
    RAM: Avexir DDR3-1600 8G*2
    VGA: MSI GTX960 GAMING 2G
    SSD: Kingston HyberX 3K SSD 240G
    CPU Cooler: SilverStone AR01

    Overview of the motherboard: Black and Red color scheme, it’s also the favorite color combination from MSI’s user reservation.
    The PCI-E slots and bandwidth are enough for a two-way SLI setting.
    Killer Ethernet, outstanding performance on internet access, especially reduce the lag issue.

    3DMark Fire Strike Extreme score: 3384
    3DMark Fire Strike Ultra score:1262
    The excel performance proof the brand new 960 graphics card comes with good a high Cost/Performance Value.
    Now, check out this test benchmark score of the renowned game “The Crew”.
    The game presents an ultra-quality display, 60 Frames Per Second (FPS)
    FPS: Average frames is at:
    Frames: 3859 - Time: 76828ms - Avg: 50.229 - Min: 43 - Max: 56
    The comments of the game for your reference:
    There are many types of missions that can be chosen from the America’s map.
    Street racing, high-speed collision, breakaway from police, sky jumps, zigzagging, etc… make the game quite dynamic.
    Now, when it comes to multi-player matches, the performance has exceeded expectations. Perhaps, it is the killer Ethernet that’s working the magic. Thus, this game is highly recommended if you have the right rig.
    The downside is that the display intricacy is not as refined as GTA V and in addition, the game FPS is limited at 60 FPS. However, the overall gaming flow and performance is better than good.
    The user's comment for using MSI Gaming 5 motherboard and 960 graphics card:
    (The following commends are translated from user’s article, does not represent the viewpoint of MSI) ^^
    Recently, MSI GTX 960 just launched so the initial price tag is still adjustable.
    According to the current product line, it seems like this GPU is going to replace 750Ti. So once all the stocks (750Ti) at the store empties, we are most likely to see a price drop on GTX960.
    Once the price hits the sweet spot, it’s time to try out GTX960 SLI’s performance.
    The CP value on MSI GTX960 and GAMING 5 MB is pretty high. But the XSplit software that comes with the product is a bit annoying since the authentication steps are divided into 2 parts to go through for using it.     
    Enough said, anyways, GAME ON!

    NVIDIA 960 card  + GAMING 5 motherboard = best bundle for budget gaming!
    it would be nice to see more testing of hardware-demanding games!

  • PCI-E graphics card and system memory conflict.

     
    Hello,
    I have a bit of a strange problem with my new system build.
    All my parts work fine when used by them selves.
    MSI KN8 diamond.
    Athlon 3200 64bit 939 Winchester.
    Crucial Ballistix PC4000 memory.
    Inno3D 6800GT PCI-E
    Thermaltake purepower 680W.
    The problem arises when I try and use both the memory and graphics card card at the same time, the system does not post stating a memory problem.  I know both work as I’m able to post when either is removed i.e when running with a standard PCI graphics card or when the memory is swapped. I’ve checked out a lot of forums over the last 2 weeks and I know there are a lot of people out there running with the same memory.  I’ve tried under clocking the memory with no success. Can anyone shed any light on this problem as I’ve never had a conflict between a graphics card and memory before.
    Thanks John 

    Need to make a couple of changes as there appears to be a possible issue with the loading of the Optimized Default setting in the bios, and I quote from MSI:
     Quote
    After loading the Optimized Default, the memory setting values will be optimized to achieve better performance. It is, however, likely to cause problems of compatibility.
    Which seems to be the exact issue you are experiencing.  First thing I would do is to manually set your vdimm to 2.8v in the bios.  This will make sure that your memory is getting the correct voltages as the AUTO setting usually sets memory to 2.5v.  This alone could eliminate your problem, but I think you'll have to comb through your memory timings and reset them, (Crucial lists 2.5-4-4-8 @ DDR500 speeds, so I'd try 2-3-3-6 or 2.5-3-3-6 for DDR400 speeds).
    There is also an official bios 1.1 for your board, and a beta (5.01) from the Diamond Club.  I'd stay with the official releases for the time being (until you get your board up and running properly).

    I am trying to upgrade my graphics card.  I recently purchased a  Zotac GeForce GTX 760 AMP Edition 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 DVI HDMI DisplayPort SLI Ready Graphics ...  .  I also installed the above mentioned power supply.  I installed both and when I went to start the computer, I got the HP logo blue screen with a message saying to press ESC key for start up menu, however the keyboard was unresponsive.   I updated the bios to this using this link  http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=cp-114777-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
    The hp logo screen changed but that was about it.  Using the new card, I could get to the first boot screen, and to the hp logo, but then it would stay stuck on the hp logo.  Also if I tried to press f10, ctrl + f or any key, I would just get a black screen and nothing would happen.  I've read that this seems to be a common problem with the HPE models and the 700 series cards and have seen no solution.  I have already arranged to return the card figuring it's either defective or not compatible with my system.
    So after all that, I've tried for the last hour to get a list of compatible graphics cards to upgrade my system, and have not found such a list.  I've found lists in the forums for other similar models, but I want to be absolutly sure before I make another purchase and have to go through all this trouble.  
    Any help would be appreciated and if more info is needed don't hesitate to let me know. 

    Hi,
    There are graphics card solutions posted on this forum. They may be hard ro find but they are psoted.  It's good that you checked the BIOS settings in the posted HP links as sometimes they get changed thinking that this will work better. However,  in the case for Windows 7 it's just the opposite.
    You issue is not a driver problem. Check with the graphics card manufacturer for a remedy. If that particular card is video BIOS enabled for UEFI then you are stuck. You can either return the card or install Windows 8 in UEFI mode.
    Another choice would be to try one of the below video cards that run in legacy or UEFI mode.

  • Premiere Elements 9 crashes with multiple NVIDIA graphics cards under Windows 7

    I've just installed Premiere Elements 9 and found that it will not run at all with multiple NVIDIA graphics cards active under Windows 7.  Per all the other discussions, I updated the NVIDIA drivers and Quicktime support to the latest versions.  (NVIDIA version 260.99).  I have both a 9400 GT and an 8400 GS installed, to support multiple monitors.  They both use the same driver.  The PRE 9 organizer will run, but as soon as I create or load a project it quickly crashes.
    On a long shot I disabled the 8400 GS card in the Device Manager and now I can run PRE 9.  Of course this means giving up one of my monitors.  Any other ideas?

    Over in the Premiere Pro area (or maybe it was in the Hardware section... didn't pay a lot of attention 'cause it really didn't matter to me) I read a message about using two nVidia cards with no problems (other than no dual-card SLI support)
    I **think** that was with two SAME model nVidia cards
    And, of course, PPro is completely different code, so PreEl may simply not work with two nVidia cards

  • How large of a performance difference between two different graphic cards

    Hey I am in the middle of upgrading my system and I am looking to spend my tax return on0 graphics cards. I am going to run an SLI with either the Nvidia GTX 660 or the GTX 680. Now I realize the 680 is hands down better than the 660 what I want to know is, is it worth the price differance proformance wise. I plan to get two of these and SLI them, here are the two I am looking at
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127699 - the 660 GTX
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127723 - the 680 GTX
    I am running CS6 so I want to stay in the 600 series of Nvidia's cards which are on the white list for CS6. I want to choose between these two cards because I am running eyefinity right now and I cannot go back, these support Nvidia Surround out of the box with no adapters needed. Also MSI's heatsinks are fantastic with these cards.
    So basically what I am asking is the proformance I will get with 2 of the 680s worth the $500 price differance?
    Here is my system as it stands now:
    CPU - AMD Phenom II X6 3.2 GHz   -> Will upgrade to AMD 9590 x8 5GHz after I buy the graphics cards
    16GB Corsair Dominator 8-8-8-20 RAM
    Samsung 840 EVO 250GB SSD (main drive)
    Corsair 64GB SSD as a scratch disk
    2TB WD Black HDD as mass storage
    AMD Radion 6790 -> Will upgrade to one of the cards listed above
    Windows 8.1

    For After Effects, there is no reason to spend the extra money unless you are using one specific feature: the ray-traced 3D renderer. If you're not using that feature, and your focus is After Effects, then spend your extra money on RAM and SSDs.
    See this page for details about how After Effects uses the GPU:

  • Can I use 2 graphic card for optimisation in adobe?

    Hi, I am using Adobe CS6, Premiere pro, After effect, Photoshop, InDesign.
    Current set up is Dell XPS 8700, GTX 650 Ti, 128gb Plex SSD, 2TB 72krpm HDD, 16DDR3 non-ECC ram.
    I am looking to build a LGA 1366 dual xeon processor workstation.
    Plextor M5 Pro as main hardisk for application cache
    2x Intel Xeon X5570
    16ddr3 10600Registered/ECC ram
    SAS 10k rpm HDDs support 6gbps but I only using 3gbps controller (media drives)
    Graphic cards:
    1x Nvidia Geforce GTX 650 Ti
    1x Nvidia Quadro FX 1800
    Need advice on the possibility of using both graphic cards in my upcoming set up.
    eg, ulitilising the Cudas on my GTX while still enabling the use of quadro fx 1800. (not sure if Quadro fx1800 can enhance the flow..)
    If able, pls share some light on how to go about enabling both graphic to use in adobe
    My work is mainly, photo and video editing.

    Hi Stormancer,
    You cannot use two different graphics cards in SLI which is the main benefit of having two cards.
    As far as I am aware the FX1800 is optimised for CAD use when you state mainly editing photo and video so I can't see that card being particularly beneficial to you.
    If you can afford it why not just buy a better spec single card either the Quadro or GTX? 
    I currently run a Windows 7 64-bit system with an i7 3700k, three SSD 6/Gbps, RAID 6/Gbps and 2300 Mhz memory with a recently upgraded GTX 680 and find it more than capable of both photo and HD video editing plus some After Effects work.  I would class myself as a serious Hobbyist (with 30 years PC experience) and suspect that yes you need the latest kit if you are editing professionally because of the deadlines and high quality required but once you reach a certain level, the gains are very negligible.
    While I was looking to upgrade my card, people on here suggested the Quadro K5000 mainly because I have a 10-bit NEC PA301W (25th anniversary present off hubbie) but this card was out of my budget so I settled on the GXT680 and find it more than capable for my needs.  It is much faster than the old Radeon 5770 I had.  However, while researching I came across this site which explains the way Mercury GPU is utilised, you may find it helpful:

  • Now I need a new Graphics card for CS4

    Hi -
    So I took the plunge and upgraded to CS4 - then discovered to my annoyance that Matrox aren't bothering ('corporate decision') to write drivers for their AVPE card to support WYSIWYG with CS4. Great, so a £200 card is now on the ebay pile and my 10 year (expensive) relationship with Matrox is over.
    Now I'm faced with a problem, I've always had Matrox graphics cards in all my edit machines, the WYSIWYG plugins make things easy and they do work well- or did.
    Please can anyone advise me if there's a card out there which will give me the ability to run two monitors as a desktop, and have a feature monitor showing my edit.(all VGA connected) With Production Premium CS4 I'd like 1GB of memory as I'm planning on editing some footage from a RED camera (or trying to) - with the Nvidia or ATI cards - is there software that allows you to set up which monotor does what - and does this plug in to Premiere After Effects Photoshop etc?
    I have 2 PCIE slots, and don't mind I suppose having two graphics cards in the machine, will this work, if I insert a for example Nvidia GTX 260 alongside the AVPE will that work, letting the Matrox handle the desktop and the Nvidia the Feature monitor, or would I be better having two GTX 260's ??
    I have asked the boffins at PNY if they think this'll work and they say - maybe, though the card will only support certain codecs.....really? they're getting back to me on what those might be.
    My system is
    Supermicro X7DWA N 16 gb ram
    XP pro SP2
    PSU 600watt
    monitors are Benq - analogue all VGA
    Adobe Production Premium CS4 with Cineform 4K
    This is an area that is quite hard to research - none of the manufacturers websites answer the questions that come up and so I have to keep calling up tech support in various different countries, then wait while they go and find out.
    I'm hopeful that someone out there has an answer - thanks for reading - any help appreciated
    Billy

    Hello Harm
    Thanks for the reply, I was hoping you would, and also hoping that wouldn't be your reply.
    I don't want to tie up my camera and have it on full time, just to get less quality than I was getting on the computer monitor as a feature monitor I was getting last week. The quality is really good, and I find it much easier to see for drawing masks etc and for colouring and grading - I guess die to having loads more pixels.
    I can't accept that there isn't another solution and so I'm looking for one, even if I have to buy two GTX260's, I'd rather spend the £175 twice (or the extra £175) than have the camera in and out of it's box every time I want to edit and then the cables everywhere, I went tapeless to get away from that and sold a couple of cameras that I could have used.
    I'd like to find out if having one nvidia 260 and my lovely obsolete matrox card will work, or if two 260s will give me the result I need, and so in the absence of any person who can tell me, I'll just have to give it a try, annoyingly, my mobo isn't SLI capabole, so I'll be wasting some of the potential of doing this, but may get the system to work again.
    Can't express here how annoyed I am with Matrox, if they produced a card tomorrow which could shoot edit and composite award winning material which would keep clients happy from now to eternity for $1 - I wouldn't buy it.
    I'll post the results as I go along.
    My alternative is to go and buy a 6 foot monitor to use as a desktop.
    Can't believe I'm the only person to have fallen foul of Matrox's failure to provide service.
