Why not just go with Asus and save yourself the trouble? Grunion is our resident guinea pig with the DFI boards.

Mine is for sale if you are interested.

No signal, period.
I used another card to flash the bios.

Found a vid on youtube of what my card did, mine was worse.

Is this with Tri-fire enabled Grunion?

I assume you tried the X2 on another system?

Initially yes, but I pulled the 4870.
Yeah, tested the X2 on 3 boards.

So did most of you dump your 4870x2s already? I see signatures change too quickly. Was just about to look at getting one.
