Computer won’t turn on with new graphics card

  • Ryzen 5 1500x
  • 650w psu
  • MSI 1660 super (with 8 pin running to it)
  • Prime B350+ Motherboard

im crushed. After saving up new graphics card (and replacing said one because I thought it was dead) my computer won’t turn on, after seemingly correct instillation. Any tips? Mother board lights up and old graphics card works when replaced back in.

Correct. Odd right? Old gpu didn’t need an 8 pin, which I think is part of the issue.
