Hi guys, i'm having a big problem, and i can't solve it. Hope you can help me.

So, i built a new system, and it works great and all, but when i put  a PCI GPU in (GTX1060 6gb) i get a black screen, the computer turns on , but nothing on the display.

At fist i though it was a driver issue, so i went in to the bios, and set the integrated graphics as the default, and if i do that, then the screen starts working, on the device manager it shows up as well. I installed the drivers, went in to the bios again and set the PCI graphics as the default, and again i get a black screen. What am i doing wrong? Can the GPU be damage?

 

Thanks for the help.

Make sure every cable is connected and the PSU delivers enough Power.

Hi mate, it is connected, and the psu has 700w :( it’s probably dead right? The GPU.

Yeah, it probably is, sadly. See if you can RMA the gpu to get a replacement from the manufacturer.

No Problem!

P.S. If the item was labeled as "working" in the listing, you may be able to get a full refund from PayPal (if you used it to pay for the gpu) by emailing them and saying the item you received was not the item described in the listing.

Actually you can plug the same monitor to both of them and set up each display and just cycle through the inputs. May help diagnose the issue.
