Hmmm okay.
I suppose that makes sense, the cards would draw considerably more power with the proper driver installed.
Last night I also went from 32bit to 64bit ubuntu.
Interestingly, now when I connect a 5th or 6th card I get a kernel panic with AMD Vi: IOTBL_INV_TIMEOUT and sync errors - this happens pretty much right after grub boots kernel. I know thats vague, I'm omw to the office and I don't remember the specific error at the moment - I'll post more details later.
I'll try and have only the 1 7970 connected to the 750W PSU as well to see if that changes things. I've had it not connected to the mobo, but I haven't actually tried disconnecting power from the 6th card when I try and boot just the 5th.
Thanks for the continued advice.
