Since I am forced to post in the newb section Smiley

I have a rig running with 2 7970s on a 890fxa-gd70, and I'd like to fill the other 2 slots with a couple 5830s I have sitting around.  The PS is an antec hcp-1200, so I think it can handle those 4 cards.  However, I can't seem to get bamt to recognize 58xx and 79xx cards at the same time.  It will recognize the 5830s if the 7970s are gone, and vice versa, but all together, it doesn't see the 5830s. 

Has anyone been able to make the 5 and 7 series successfully coexist in one box, preferably BAMT?  I'm just trying to maximize those open slots on the gd70s, and I'm pretty sure the power supply won't handle 4 7970s in there.

I have a few rigs, all the same MSI mobo and AX1200 PSUs.  The 6990s are from MSI and the 7970's are from XFX.  I can't get the BAMT to run when I have a 7970's in it.  How did you get it to work your rig to run with just the 7970s in it?

What brand 7970 do you have?
What kind of error are you getting?
Have you updated the drivers?

It took me awhile to get the 7970s working.  I can't remember exactly what I did, but I'm pretty sure I updated the drivers based on info I found in the forums here.  Sorry that I can't remember more details!  I have msi 7970s.  The error I get now is just that it doesn't recognize the 5830s when the 7970s are in the machine.

I just spent a week trying to get 5970s and 7970s to play nice....not happening.

I was trying to help another person set up 7970 on linuxcoin https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=50732;sa=showPosts this could help you. Yesterday, though, AMD changed all their APP-SDKs to include an installer and the process is now a little different. It should be easier since you just run the installer, but I have yet to test it.
