My betas were aborted by server.

Yes they will all be aborted by the server if you don't beat them to it. There were a general issue with the batch of Betas.

The H60 is a no go. It does not line up with the hole patten on my MSI 990 FXA -GD80 mobo. The backing plate and the pump itself are a lot wider patter that whats on my board. I have never had this problem before, I thought they were all the same.

That's the square unit right? All you should have to do is use the AMD clips (2x) on the stock cooler mounting hardware...

Like this:

My board does not look like that it is version 1 and they have changed it in V2

I don't want to order another cooler and have the same problem. May just have to get another H50 since I know that it works.

Yup. I checked the results page on WCG, and the 6 errored out after 13hrs. The 2 on the i3 were sever aborted.

You need to put the stock cooler mount back on the board to use an H60- if you don't have the stock one anymore then I may have one or likely @ThE_MaD_ShOt will have one for you

AMD install demo at around 12:20 on this video

I found the brackets and got it on and back together. Now this problem started when I shut down and blew it out with some air. I powered back up and after a minute or 2 it shut down. I noticed it was really hot at the pump and the lines were also hot so I figured the h50 died. I just tried to power up and it shut down again. and now the H60 is hot and the lines are also hot. is it the cooler again or something else?

Are you on a 3 pin fan header or the 4 pin PWM/cpu fan header? iirc that cooler needs to be on one of the 3 pin headers (i.e. it needs to run at full speed). The alternate is to run it off off a molex to 3 pin fan adapter...

 

[Bow]

Its plugged into a 3 pin.

 

[Norton]

Its plugged into a 3 pin.

Try it on one of your case fan headers or a different mobo header

I think I got it working but now my GPU is not working....GRRRRRRRR, about to sell the damn thing.

About those WU's that take a long time and are errorring out: ( I think, anyway)

The "-131 (file size too big)" error should be corrected on any work units sent out by the server from this point forward (including resends). Any work units that have already been downloaded may still encounter this problem though. Thank you for your (continued) patience as we work through these issues.

Edit: If you have your buffer set for several days of work, now may be a good time to dump it, that is if I'm reading and understanding this correctly.

It's nice to know that my system is okay.....

You don't have to tell me twice!

DUMPING ENGAGED!!!!!

Thanks for the info!

H60 is working fine but now my GPU is not, Fans work but it is not sending a signal to the monitor. this is just not my week for the pc. I purchased it from a up standing member last year, but I see he has not been on since June. Any way to RMA a card that you got second hand? I may take it to the local pc guys to look at but they are bunch of crooks. I tried it with the HDMI and VGA and got nothing. I would even send it to a fellow TPU member if they wanted to take a crack at it and tell me what the deal is.

 

[stinger608]

Damn Bow, it just hasn't been your week for that system brother.

Have you tried a second PCIe slot yet? Bios could be set to the second slot as primary? Just grasping at straws here but may be worth checking........That is if there is a second PCIe slot.

Depending on brand of video card it might be possible to RMA. I think EVGA is one that goes by serial number and not purchaser. I know XFX has to be done by the purchaser. Not sure on some of the other brands.

 

[Bow]

Will try second slot tomorrow. It's a sapphire card I'll have to check with support at work and see what they can do.

Make sure the card is fully seated in the slot first, what brand is the card?

*Update- the cpu could have popped up and bent a pin too... that may affect the slot

Had to rma my first d3h board for a bad x 16 slot. Same scenario, fans were spinning up but no signal. Any chance of firing it on another board. It wasn't until I took it to my local guy that we found out it was the slot and not the card. You are in need of a test bench my friend. I would be glad to test for you but N.S. is quite far. It took me three days of before I said screw it and had it benched thou. I feel your pain. A bad pci was the last thought in my head.
Edit: Thing is I have had Two sapphires 5770 v-x and a Dual x 7870 xt both are monsters for taking abuse clock wise never had a single prob with either over the last hmmmm..... 5 yrs now.

Sorry for the double post but found this on Sapphires site.
RMA/Warranty

Sapphire VGA products carry a 2 year warranty* with all enquires carried out through your initial place of purchase. This can only be carried out by the original purchaser Please contact your Dealer/Reseller for Warranty / RMA service. They will require proof of purchase which includes the original invoice/documentation.

1. Product Warranty will not be valid even if returned after purchased for the following cases:
   • Products that are defaced or physically damaged and modified by customer.
   • Products that become non-functional due to customer improper use.
   • Products that cannot be verified as Sapphire products.
   • Products that do not have a matching serial number between the product and the original receipt.
   • Products not sold from our official distributors or resellers.
2. GPU or ASIC device (VGA) is sensitive to thermal (heat) issue. The heat sink or fan is designed to meet the requirements for reliability of the product and the warranty is rendered invalid if the product is dismantled or the heat sink or cooler fan are removed as this may causes damage to the GPU or ASIC device . Non-compliance will cause the warranty of the product to be void and repair will be at the users cost.
   
3. Currently Sapphire does not directly provide any warranty extensions. Please contact your reseller or distributor for any 3rd party warranty extensions that may be available through them. Any extensions provided by the reseller are independent of Sapphire.
4. All replacement product may include new, reworked or refurbished product and parts.
   
5. Any repaired, replaced or exchanged products will be covered for the remaining period of the original warranty.
   
6. Sapphire reserves the right to change this policy without advance notice.

SAPPHIRE products built with AMD Radeon technology are Consumer products. If your application is of a professional or commercial nature you should consider using AMD FirePro products also available from SAPPHIRE.

General Card Specifications can vary due to component availability.

*NB: Warranty may vary from Country/Region and the customer must verify directly with the Sapphire Authorised Dealer/Reseller from where the product was purchased..

For any overseas return on RMA outside their normal warranty with their local supplier, the local RMA centre will apply a basic administration fee to cover the logistics return of the RMA items back and forth from Hong Kong.

I had an issue with my kids' Biostar board where the top PCIe slot (where the video card is) stopped working with that card. I moved the card down to the next x16 slot and it was working again.

I am curious if it will beat my g1620 celeron dual core that uses 8w.
