Hi All,
I recently received an Asus 1070 from a buddy who had recently upgraded his card. I have a 770, so It was very generous of him and a nice upgrade! I didn't build the PC myself, a friend did, but I figured that this is a pretty straightforward upgrade.... So I went to do the upgrade, took the 770 out and put the 1070 in. I then went to boot the PC, and it seemed to go into a "Boot Loop", the fans spin on the coolers and GPU, the leds turn on but then the PC just shuts off and continues to repeat this (see video below).
I then tried to reinstall it again, revert back to the 770 and even tried to boot with no GPU (using the cpu on board graphics) but I was met with this same issue no matter what. My PC was working fine before this, so it almost certainly something to do with my installation.... From what my research tells me it could be a MOBO issue? Please help if you can! I'd like to fix this on my own as I'd love to be gaming during this lockdown without having to go to a repair shop....
