Hello. I've recently changed my Palit GeForce GTX 1070 Ti JetStream GPU (which was perfectly fine, i thought it was broken since it was a 2nd hand deal) with an ASUS RTX 2060 RoG OC. So basically, when I changed the fan speed of the Palit GTX 1070 Ti, the PC would make an electrical noise, and then it would shut down. As it may sound like, this is actually not coil whine, nor the GPU's fault, because THE EXACT SAME F@#%ING THING HAPPENED with the BRAND NEW Asus ROG STRIX RTX 2060!!!!!! And no, it's not the power supply, I've had 2 thus far (seasonic 750w platinum and coolermaster V1000 gold) which are perfectly fine. Damn, I've spent 130 euros on a PSU i thought was broken! I STRUGGLED WITH THIS PIECE OF S@#% FOR 3 MONTHS STRAIGHT, JUST TO WASTE 500 EUROS ON A PROBLEM THAT STILL EXISTS! Please, I need urgent help.

This may sound dumb, but have you made sure everything is installed all the way. Especially the screws holding in your parts. It sounds a lot like your computer is shorting out.

 

As painful as a process it may be, I'd recommend removing everything from the PC and reinstalling everything. Especially make sure there is nothing beneath your motherboard. Sometimes cases will have pre-installed places to install screws for your motherboard but depending on your form factor, they may not be needed and can cause issues if they are overlooked.

 

Make sure all of your screws are in 100%.

 

Another side note.

If your PC has onboard graphics, I'd recommend that you try and boot the PC without the GPU just for general troubleshooting, it never hurts to be entirely aware of whats going on and limiting the possibilities is a life saver.

I just wanted to add

That a tiny piece of **** GPU (HD 7700) had no problems at all, because it required a 6 pin power connector.

On the other hand, BOTH of these GPU's have a 6+8 pin POWER connector

I'm speculating that the 8 pin is not installed as it should be

Also, the WRAITH PRISM cooler is V E R Y loud, could it have something to do with this? Because i want to murder this PC, I've struggled so much...
