You need a bigger supply. My limited experience with RTX cards so far is what they list is the BARE minimum, Id probably aim at 550 minimum. I mean I could be wrong, you didnt list the rest of your system so its hard to say what your total power draw is but the symptom matches the diagnosis of to little power.

I recently just bought a new EVGA RTX 2060 XC Ultra Card. I had a GTX1060 prior. I put the new card in after removing the old one and plugged my pc back in. I turned it on and the system posted but the graphics card didn’t come on at all. I was wondering if it was because I have a 450 watt PSU and the instructions say 500W psu is needed. (Dumb question but I need my nerves put to rest!)

What are your systems specs and exact model of PSUs? Some bad quality PSUs can't deliver their full power on 12V rail

Yeah that’s what I thought. I’m going out to buy a 650 or 750 tomorrow! I have an 8 core@3.6Ghz ryzen 7 cpu, 16GB of ram, and a b350 Thomahawk mobo

Which Corsair PSU? Just wattage doesn't say much.

I'd say that 450W is enough for system like that, as it doesn't appear like you are overclocking your CPU. So most of power draw comes from video card

Are the power cables fully plugged in? 

Can you test the card in other PC? Could be DOA

there are at least three models of CX450M as far as I know so I don't know which one you're talking about. Your 2060 has a power limit of 190W, while 1800X draws about 120w power at stock. That's not enough to overload the newest generation of CX450M by quite some room.

@Twixxyy read my signature. I have some doubts that your system is pulling more than mine. 450 is more than enough, there's something else amiss.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Yeah I just got my new power supply hooked it up and it didn’t turn on ): I’m pretty sure the card is bricked

I think the card is bricked I got a new power supply 80+ bronze rating 650 watt and it didn’t turn on. I re installed the gtx 1060 and it came on so there’s something wrong with the card
