Hardware and Software Installation

This chapter details how to install your graphics card in your system as well as where
to download associated software and drivers.

2.1 Installation Overview

Once you have determined that your system meets the minimum requirements,
perform the following tasks to install your new graphics card.

Detailed installation instructions are provided in the following sections.

1. If you are replacing an existing graphics card, uninstall the old graphics driver

and software.

Note: If you are using a motherboard containing an on-board graphics solution
and do not intend to use it as part of a multiple monitor configuration, disable
it.

Chapter 2

2. Turn off and disconnect your computer system.

3. If needed, remove any old graphics card(s).

4. Install the new graphics card and radiator assembly.

5. If applicable, install a second graphics card for AMD CrossFire™ technology.

6. Reassemble and connect your computer system and display(s).

7. Start the computer system and install the new AMD Catalyst™ drivers and

configuration software.

8. Restart the computer system.

2.2 Installing the Graphics Card

Before installing a card that requires a supplementary power connection, make sure
your existing power supply has such a connection available.

1. Turn off the computer, monitor(s), and other peripheral devices.

2. Unplug the computer's power cord, and then disconnect all cables from the back

of the computer.

Caution:

Wait approximately 20 seconds after unplugging the power cord before
disconnecting a peripheral cable or removing a component from the
motherboard to avoid possible damage to the motherboard.

3. Remove the cover to the computer's case.

Note: If necessary, consult the computer manual for help in removing the

cover.

Caution:

Static electricity can seriously damage computer components. Discharge
your body's static electricity by touching the power supply or the metal
surface of the computer chassis before you touch any components inside the
computer's case to avoid damaging them.

4. Unscrew or unfasten and remove any existing graphics card from the computer,
if necessary.

Warning:

Some graphics cards can get hot while operating. Wait approximately five
minutes after turning off the computer before touching the card.

5. Locate the appropriate bus slot and, if necessary, remove the corresponding
metal backplate cover(s). Make sure all internal cables are clear of the slot.

Note: If you cannot find a bus slot to match the card, you need a graphics card
with the correct bus to match the motherboard.

6. Align the graphics card with the slot while making sure that the weight of the
radiator is fully supported (not dangling from the card).

7. Make sure that all cables and tubes are moved out of the way and press the
graphics card firmly in the slot until it is fully seated.

8. Fasten the graphics card securely to the back panel.

9. Identify a mounting location for the radiator assembly. Most computer cases

have at least one location for a screw-mounted, 120 mm × 120 mm fan at the back
of the chassis.

For proper mounting of the radiator assembly:

• Select a location that has the most open grills on the case for better air flow.

• The radiator assembly must be mounted above the graphics card and in a

location that has minimal impedance to air flow.

• Do not mount the graphics card or radiator assembly above an open power

supply to prevent power supply damage in case of coolant leakage.

• The radiator should be mounted on the side of the chassis so that the tubes

exit from the bottom edge of the radiator.

• The radiator assembly must be correctly mounted inside the computer

case and not left resting outside of the case.

• Do not change the placement of the fan on the radiator.

10. Align the radiator assembly with the mounting location so that air is exhausted
outside the system.

You should be able to see the radiator through the open grills of the computer
case.

10 Display Configuration

When connecting displays to a DisplayPort connection, the type of adapter and display
that you use may determine the number of displays that can be used with your
graphics card.

•

An active adapter allows a non-DisplayPort display to be connected a
DisplayPort connection using DisplayPort signals.

•

A passive adapter also allows a non-DisplayPort display to be connected to a
DisplayPort connection but using non-DisplayPort signals.

•

Transmission of audio and video information between variants of the same
connection type (for example, Mini DisplayPort to standard DisplayPort and vice
versa) are considered to be native, active connections.

More information on the number and type of displays that can be supported by your
graphics card is provided in the following sections.

3.3 Connecting Displays

AMD Eyefinity technology is a solution that allows up to six displays to be
simultaneously run off a single graphics card. The AMD Radeon™ R9 Fury X graphics
card is capable of AMD Eyefinity technology and can support Ultra HD resolutions via
the DisplayPort connection.

As many as six DisplayPort displays can be connected and controlled independently
per DisplayPort connection using DisplayPort 1.2 multi-stream transport (MST) hubs
or daisy-chain configurations. Hubs and displays in this setup must be capable of the
DisplayPort 1.2 standard.

The following table lists options for attaching displays to your graphics card. The types
of display configurations that can be used depend on the display connections that are
available on your graphics card.

For best graphics performance and quality, always use native (or active) connections
when possible.

Note: Adapters/donglges that are not provided with your graphics cards can also be
purchased from AMD's Web site or through your local AMD resellers.
