My new build have had vertical bars starting from the first boot. First not in every boot (usually if cold boot) but now it is constant. When no bars, Windows was working and I could get games working until after some time, vertical line crash (logs are not saying much anything).
See attachment image: BIOS screen with bars
It is probably the video card? It is now already being checked for RMA in the shop, but that takes time 😞 But could it be other component?
Power supply should be enough (high quality 41A for 12v etc.). Main memory test passed without errors. Bars stayed also with 4GB stick only (tried both). BIOS is most new F8 (there is a new beta though). Video card was tested with Furmark (no crash yet) and Valley Benchmark (crashed after some time, one time right away, usually took time). Next day after testing more, vertical bars stayed all the time. I tried DVI-D and HDMI.
Specs:
Asus R9280X-DC2T-3GD5
Gigabyte B85M-D3H 1.x
Super Flower - 500W - 80+ GOLD (87% 90% 87% Efficiency At 20% 50% 100% Rated Load)
Xeon 1230v3 (no GPU)
PNY X8R SSD 240GB
2x4GB G.SKILL Ripjaws 1600Mhz
+ 2 x hdd
I had no way to test with other video card (too old 8800GTS320 didn't work with new one) or try in different computer (too big to old computer)... Another old card failed to show anything when plugged in (HD2400XT). Got long beep and two short beeps wich mean graphic system failed. Should old ones be compatible also with new mother boards (both are from 2007 and working in bit older computers)?
The other shop, where I bought the mother board from, said that there might be small change of faulted PCI-E port in mother board if video card is OK. Anybody had similar symphons and PCI-e port was the reason?
Any ideas? Thank you.
