Everything in the Radeon 5000 6000, and 7000 series should have at least one Dual-Link DVI and many cards have Displayport, since that should be a Dell U2711 monitor. Even a 5450 or 6450 will support that resolution. If you aren't going to play games on it then they would do the job.
You should be fine. Uninstall the AMD Catalyst Install Manager from the Windows Control Panel. Shut the computer down and install the 7970 and the six and eight pin power connections for it. Boot back up and then download and install Catalyst 12.3 from our site or amd.com and that should be...
I would estimate that the system listed in your profile would draw in the low 400s, possibly 500 depending on how well your CPU handles that overclock. According to 80plus.org, that PSU runs at about 90% efficiency in that range.
The fan shouldn't ever need to be at 100% and those cards run very warm but not 100C.
How long have you had the card? Those card are about three years old. It likely needs to be cleaned up thoroughly by taking the cooler off and cleaning the fin array from the inside and replacing the...
Our cards now have warranty void stickers on the retention brackets but they do not affect the North American warranty. It will void your warranty in other regions. For cards purchased in US and Canada you can remove the stickers and the cooler to replace thermal paste, clean, or use third...
You can probably get a bracket from the manufacturer of the card.
If it is from XFX then just request one through the support section of our site. If it isn't then the manufacturer should be able to get you the bracket.
It sounds like a defective card or incompatible motherboard. All that is needed is the two 6 pin connections. If the 4850 works then the slot does. Are you using an older motherboard? Some old boards need BIOS updates to work with newer cards.
We would like to apologize for any inconvenience that this revision change has caused anyone. I would like to clear up a few misconceptions about the revision 1.1 6970. The PCB used on this card is an AMD design that other manufacturers are using on their 6970s as well. It does not have an...
Treat that just like any driver crash. That is what it is. It can be caused by any system instability, a bad card, and very often by misconfigured or defective memory since so many people are buying DDR3 that runs at higher voltage than their motherboard boots at.
I would expect that cleaning the dust and lent from the cooler and reapplying thermal paste would get your temps down quite a bit. If you still have any problems please put in a support ticket on our site and send me a PM with the ticket ID.
That model does support software control of the voltage. I know that the program TriXX supports the voltage controller used on that model card.
Make sure that you keep the original cooler and pads if you swap it with another cooler. They are going to want that to be back on there if you...

Those are accurate for the most part since they are just compiling stats from amd.com and nvidia.com. amd.com and nvidia.com both list it as well...
Can you list your system specs? The most common cause that we have seen recently, especially with new builds, is misconfigured or defective memory. Most DDR3 out right now runs at 1.65V since it is for P55 and X58 but most motherboards boot at 1.5V. Make sure that your memory voltage is set...
The mains things to look at when you aren't getting display is video card, memory, power supply, and motherboard. Since you get the same thing with the onboard that means your video card isn't causing it. In my experience when a power supply fails the fans and LEDs still come on. It can...
Please PM me your ticket ID and RMA number. If your account information on our site does not have your telephone number then update it or respond back to your ticket so that I can get a hold of you.
I am a tech support rep working for XFX. I have asked an admin to change my title and given him my xfxforce.com email to verify. We are trying to make the rounds.
If you guys need anything then feel free to PM me. I can only do anything with RMAs for North America. If you have an issue then...
The adapter will have to be active. You can use two displays to any of the DVI ports and HDMI but not all three at the same time.
I would recommend using the native HDMI for the TV and then an active mDP to DVI adapter like http://www.amazon.com/Accell-B087B-0.../dp/B004071ZXA.
We would not recommend two 5970 cards on that power supply. A 5970 with a 5870 would be getting close to the recommended limit of the power supply with the rest of your components added in but it should be fine.
A 5850 or 5870 will Crossfire with your 5970.
We recommend at least 600W for two. That should be a good quality power supply and I would expect it to be able to handle two 5850s in Crossfire without any issues.
The adapters that ship with the card are most likely passive. Passive adapters can handle up to two displays because they basically piggyback off of the existing outputs built in to the processor for DVI and HDMI. Ryan Smith wrote a pretty good article about it at...
Terry Makedon from AMD put it best at http://twitter.com/CatalystMaker/status/4993839949414400
Most users are fine with 10.11 for 5000 series and back. 10.11 is not meant for the 6000 series cards. Any enthusiast or gamers should probably be using 10.10e from...
