Question 1

Is this a good card for a Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 MOBO?

Accepted Answer

Hi Fritz,

I purchased this card brand new about 2 years ago and that one is working fine. I had it cross fired with a 4850, and wanted to upgrade that card, so I purchased this one.
So far it's working fine.  I have a ASUS WS 64 (It's Old).
I wasn't really happy with how it looked at the cost 139.99 est..  My current card looks better.  Looked like it was rode hard and put away wet.  It's still working.  Performance is good.
I'd rather get it for 109 than 139.  With the surge of people wanting to mine lite coins, your'e going to see more ATI reconditioned cards come available, when they're ventures go south.
All in all, it's a decent card and has treated me well.

Regards,

Bill

Question 2

im assuming 1 6 pin? for this card ? my psu only has one thats why im askin before i buy

Accepted Answer

System Requirements
500 Watt Power Supply is required
1x75 Watt 6-pin PCI Express power connector is required.
2x75 Watt 6-pin PCI Express power connector is required for CrossFireX system.

It's in the specifications.

Question 3

If i use 2 of these for crossfire config whats the min size power supply i can use ?

Accepted Answer

I'm not sure what the minimum wattage is to be honest. As long as your motherboard supports crossfire and you have 2 available 6-pin connectors, then you should be okay. I am currently using a Corsair TX-750 and I am having no problems running two of these graphics cards.

Question 4

I need a jumper for the set of radeon 6850 cards. Would you please give me a part number.?

Accepted Answer

i dunno what jumper you would need but i would suggest looking into a crossfire cable or what ever the other form of crossfire is i do not run more than one card at a time so i am not to sure how to respond did you look under videocard adaptors ??? or excesserys ???
