I've had a 1060 running in one of my R4's so it should be plug and play. If the BIOS is up to date then there must be something wrong with the card.

Try reseating it and making sure the power cables are plugged in right.

I had a look around and fiddled with the power plugs, everything seems fine as Im using it now but the card is a low profile card so its got no power plugs and my old card had two 6 pin plugs.

Is that why Its not working?

Bad card.

Fake Card

Card not seating all the way down into the slot.

There should be zero issues when card is inserted after turning secure boot off and legacy option roms and CSM ON.

Bios may need update

R4 Driver ID = fkcd8

 

AuroraR4_A11.exe

 

Best CPUS for upgrade

Core i5 4690 3.5 GHz
Core i7 4770 3.4 GHz
Core i7 4790 3.6 GHz
