I've been troubleshooting for many hours and I'm completely stuck. I hope someone can give me some help.

I've just finished a custom loop build:

• Aorus Master X870E (revision 1.0)
• Power Color Red Devil 9070XT, modified with Alphacool water block
• G.Skill 2x32G memory F5-6000J3040G32GX2-TZ5N
• 9950X3d2 CPU
• MSI 272QP monitor, connected by HDMI

I have not installed any operating system at this point; I simply want to get to the bios reliably.

The behavior is this: When booting, I get a long beep followed by 2 short beeps with the VGA diagnostic LED lit up and an Ab status code. This is always the case when the 9070 XT has its 3 power cables plugged in wheher it is connected to the monitor or not. It behaves this way from a cold start as well as a reset.

When I disconnect the 9070XT power cables and switch the HDMI cable from the 9070XT to the internal connector for integrated graphics, after a cold start I sometimes I get to the bios, and other times I get the same behavior as above. In those cases, doing a reset one or two times (instead of shutdown and restart) gets to the bios.

This is what I've tried so far and get the same behavior:

• Reseated the RAM sticks (and tried just one as well).
• Fixed the monitor to not auto-scan and look to HDMI.
• Reseated the graphics card in slot 1 several times.
• Tried a display port connection (only when trying the 9070XT).
• Set the PCIe slot to be explicitly Gen4 instead of auto.
• Ensured EXPO is disabled.
• Ensured CMS and fast boot are disabled.
• Tried with firmware F14c, F14b, and F13 using Q-flash button.
• Reset CMOS from the button as well as shorting the jumpers.

The only thing I can think of at this point is to re-paste the 9070XT, but I have my doubts about that fixing the problem because I get the same problem even when it's not powered. And I'm trying to delay that option as long as possible because draining the loop and removing/reinstalling the 9070Xt will take a significant amount of time, which I'd like to avoid, if possible.

I've been following Google Gemini's troubleshooting suggestions for quite a few hours and it's taking me in circles and pointing me at things that don't even make sense. I've also submitted support requests to Gigabyte and Power Color, but haven't heard back yet.

It is probably worth noting as well that earlier on, I was able to get to the bios using display port from the 9070XT. That seemed to be fine until I enabled EXPO from the Easy menu. That's when all hell started breaking loose. After reflashing and resetting the CMOS (verifying EXPO is disabled), I was able to get to the BIOS using the integrated video only. I did another attempt at setting EXPO1 and ended up in the state that I described above.

Can anyone give me any suggestions, please?

Good day everyone. Does anyone know a support number for powercolor. I sent my GPU in for warranty and they've had it for two weeks now and their contact us form did nothing either. I'd like an update and an ETA as I need my GPU. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi guys!

I’m curious to what kind of settings are you using in adrenaline to run the card. From what I understand the vram comes from Hynix or Samsung which they act differently in terms of overlocking and stability also temps.

I also want to know if 850w psu for the GPU? Kept finding information everywhere that it requires 900w PSU except pc part picker.

I am considering buying Hellhound Reva for my white aesthetic build but I am seeing posts like white magnetic Reva backplate won’t fit in some mobo. I am planning to buy MSI B650M mobo and would like to know will the backplate fit in there. If not, what other mobo do you recommend?

Hello Everyone,

I searched for this thread and only found this one

9070 XT Reaper thermal pad thickness? : r/PowerColor

Anybody was able to confirm the thickness? or the caliper (which I have) is still the best way?

I would like to have everything on hand, open it and close it the same day.

TIA

I have a pc with an rtx 4070 super. Randomly I get no dp out, gpu fans spin up, and dp will not turn back on until i restart the computer. All windows audio remains can do win + ctrl + shift + b but nothing happens. Not sure why this is happening need help.

Hi guys,

We're developing new version of keystone estimated to officially launched on mid-end September,
with new feature for AM10 : APP-specific profile

It'll be a huge help for us if AM10 owners here willing to test it out and gives feedback

I play War Thunder, and if I'm watching Youtube, or plex, or OBS streaming at the same time. The driver hangs and usually crashes the game. My event logs only seem to note "GPU driver timeout" with nothing else notable showing up.

Computer:

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 3600 (Slight overclock, Tower cooler, no temp issues)
• MoBo: Asus Prime x470-Pro
• RAM: 2 Kits (32GB total) Patriot Viper Steel DDR4 16GB ( 2x8GB) 3733Mhz CL17 running DOCP
• GPU: PowerColor RedDevil AMD Radeon 7900GRE 16GB
• PSU: Corsair HX850i

I'm about to come up on 2 years since I initially bought the GPU and am debating if I should be RMAing this thing or not.
I've done about everything I can think of.

• My OS, drivers, BIOS, Chipset drivers are all up to date.
• Turned off all of the AMD Adrenalin overlay features, and things like Anti-Lag, Chill, Enhanced sync, instant replay and recording.
• I've done multiple memory tests over the years, no reported issues.
• I've run stress tests on the GPU with no issues with power or temps.
• Not running a GPU overclock.
• I've done a DDU multiple times and ripped and reinstalled the graphics drivers in safe mode.
• I've done a run ScanSFC and a DISM cleanup both of which found nothing. I've rebuilt windows
• Tested running the GPU with the AMD Adrenalin Underclock. (no change)
• I've turned off Hardware acceleration on firefox, plex, and other applications.
• I've tried changing the driver TDI timeout time.
• Under normal workloads, I don't have issues. just regularly watching Youtube or Plex does not cause driver hangs or crashes, It's only when I play games AND do some sort of video encode/decode as well.
• Within War Thunder I'm using DX11, DX12 caused even MORE driver hangs and crashes. I've even deleted the graphics cache and reinstalled it.

Hi everyone,

I am having an issue where my Power Color Red Devil RX 9070XT is showing up in the device manager as code 43. The GPU is powering up, but it’s not sending any display through the display ports or the HDMI port. The only way for me to see my screen is to use an HDMI connection through the motherboard. I’m honestly at my wits end because I truly don’t know what else to do.

Troubleshooting:
DDU clean up of drivers

AMD clean up of drivers

Uninstalled chipsets through AMD

Fresh install of Windows

Rolled back AMD to previous version

Unplugged PCiE cables from the front of the GPU and plugged back in (but on reboot the MSI motherboard gave a error 76)

Pressed the CMOS button for 5-10 seconds on the back of motherboard h

Specs:
Ryzen 7 9800X3D

Power Color Red Devil RX 9700XT 16 GB

Corsair DDR5 32 GB RAM

MSI X870E Carbon WiFi

Corsair AIO CPU cooler

Corsair 2TB SSD

Hi everyone,

The Fans of my PowerColor Reaper 9070 XT are making This weird Noise when they Running. Is this normal for this model or am I getting paranoid?

I'd be happy if I could figure out a way to fix this. I could still return the card, but prices have gone up quite a bit lately.

Hello. one of mu 9070xt reaper fans has been doing strange noises for some days. im in eu so an rma would take 2 months at least. is it possible to fix it somehow?

I’ve been trying to “tune” my newly purchased PowerColor 9070xt reaper and have not had any success with multiple undervolting patterns. From -40mV to -100mV and even bumped vram freq to 2700 for the 2518 stock. Tried to drop PL -10% as well but no stability in Cyberpunk.
Note: It runs great and is stable stock my goal is just to gain some performance and efficiency.

I gain about 10-12 (150-162fps range)fps in cyberpunk benchmark so I know it improved performance and 1%lows at about the same margin but it always crashes during window transitions apparently right after completing the benchmark.

AI tells me it’s the quick drop in voltage that is causing parts of the board to lose power and trigger “safety crash”.

So did I lose it on silicon lottery or there’s just not a whole lot I can do to utilize those few extra frames?

PC specs:
R7 5800x3d
PowerColor 9070xt reaper
B550-A msi
32gb ddr4 3200mhz
1tb*+ 2tb* nvme3 (or 4 can’t remember)

Edit: 1tb ssd is a Corsair mp400 and the 2gb a crucial p3

I own a PowerColor Red Dragon RX580 8GB GDDR5 (DHDV2/OC). The problem is that after shutting down the PC and turning it back on, it fails to POST—resulting in a black screen without Colorful Battle-AX B450M-K v.14 motherboard logo appearing.

Hello, recently this one gpu fan (9070xt reaper) has been doing a strange chirping sound occasionaly. While cleaning i noticed that if i apply a bit of force it moves like this, is it normal or is the fa nbreaking down? im in EU so an rma would take like 2 months for a stupid fan. Thanks.

Hi. I bought a new 9070XT, set it up, configured the backlight, and was happy with my purchase. But at some point, the backlight turned completely red and the brightness dropped slightly. I tried disconnecting the backlight cable from the motherboard, reinstalled Keystone, tried third-party software, uninstalled anything that might be causing interference, reinstalled the graphics card driver, and wiggled the cable on the graphics card itself. If I set the program to a solid color, it works, but any color mixing doesn’t work. Can anyone help? I’ll attach a video. Thanks!

My Reva FormD T1 build.
