Long story short. Anyone around Dublin who would like to help me test graphics card ? It's a Sapphire 5850 and it just doesn't work with my system. When I start it up the fan goes on like crazy and the monitor goes in power save mode. Now I've stuck an old Gainward 6800GS and it works like it should. If someone could help…

Long story short. Anyone around Dublin who would like to help me test graphics card ? It's a Sapphire 5850 and it just doesn't work with my system. When I start it up the fan goes on like crazy and the monitor goes in power save mode. Now I've stuck an old Gainward 6800GS and it works like it should. If someone could help me that'll be great, if it still isn't working then I'll have to RMA it.

Specs are:

mobo: asus m4a89td pro
psu: xfx 650w xxx edition
vga: sapphire 5850

Thanks
