    I have an unusual, and frustrating problem

    Tested the video card in my coworker's PC and it worked just fine with his Crossfire HX1050. Thanks to everyone that provided advice.

    Yes I might upgrade it a little later. When I've put more time since my $700ish PC payment behind me.

    I inserted 2 of the remaining 3 chips and managed to get my RAM up to 20GB with windows telling me 16 of it is useable.

    No one that I live with has a desktop. But I might be able to get a friend from work to try it out for me.
