Welcome to TPU :toast:


Apart from the wrong/missing data your bios version looks.... weird...

Which is the bios that you are using right now?

Here's how a gpu-z screenie of a 4890 should be looking like:



Btw it'd be lovely if that card of yours really had 4GB of vram and a 512 bit bus width ;)


Edit: Hey could it be that gpu-z is reading the chipset's data? With 4GB ddr2 ram and the lower clocks? :confused:


Please go into your forum control panel and fill in your system specifications, and tick the box to make them visible. That way the readers of this thread will know what is the rest of your hardware and might be better able to solve your problem. :)

its either driver corruption,or you borkd it when you flashed it. like flashing a refrence bios to that card. email sapphire and ask them for a bios version for that card. they will email it to you. if it dont work rma it.

have you done a full driver sweep?? also it could be some sort of power malfunction but any time my old 4890's did this it was solved by a simple driver clean and re install
