     @syzygy the thing is, the display doesn't work at all. It won't even go to BIOS, I have to use the VGA port in the motherboard just to get in.

     So is there any display from the motherboard's VGA?

     You don't need the GPU, actually, people were rendering graphics on z80 just fine, surely your AMD64 rig can too.

     @MK2boogaloo Have you tested it on another system to see if it's borked? Never had any problems with the RX470 on Linux so the GPU problems are odd

     @syzygy okay kitten, put your ears because daddy is going to simplify it to you.
     
     I bought a GPU, tried it on my Arch PC. It works for a couple of days but then it stopped working. I tried fixing it but it just won't work, when I installed it I had to use VGA display on my motherboard. So I thought this must be a BIOS problem, then I bought a new motherboard. I installed it in, Arch doesn't work because grub is fucked somehow. I tried it with my GPU too and it won't boot.

     @lina @MK2boogaloo @syzygy feels like a driver issue. if the old card is different architecture it could be simply a matter of loading kernel-module or trying to run some strange amd thingy. although about of the box rx5xx cards i've had in the past work on some really old linux kernel versions. :thinking:

     Yeah, I was thinking that but he's saying there's no display from the motherboard with the new card (there should be), I'm thinkin' it might also be PEBKAC

     @lina @MK2boogaloo @syzygy if the GPU doesn't have a video signal even while booting, it's not a driver problem. Either the GPU is fucked, or the Motherboard slot is fucked.
     But he already tried with another MB, and the other GPU works fine, so this GPU might be fucked.
     
     What I would try would be another PSU. Sure, the GPU may not need a six pin power connector, but maybe the PSU is not delivering enough power for the RX560, but is delivering enough power for the other GPU.
     
     If that also doesn't work, then I'm sorry, but the 560 is dead.

     @MK2boogaloo @lina @syzygy

     mk, here's what i would try in order

     • shutdown machine
     • pull the card
     • install old gpu
     • boot with an ubuntu live usb
     • if graphics work proceed
     • shutdown machine
     • install newer gpu
     • boot with an ubuntu live usb
     • if graphics work then it's not the mainboard, gpu, psu, or rams
     • you've likely got kernel modules missing or not being set to load at init/boot
     • if everything works then stops working later document what you are installing (libs, software, drivers, etc) and start an elimination of adding/removing until you find the culprit
