Hello.

 

I've been trying to resolve this issue that I'm having.

Here's my PC specs.

 

CPU = A4 6300

Ram = 8 gb (2x4GB) rip jaw DDR3-1866

PSU = (Not sure with the brand (cant look at it im not home)) but it is 80+bronze 550w

GPU = RX 570 4GB

MOBO = Asus A58m-E

*Major bottleneck I know. :) I'm planning to upgrade to Ryzen 5 3500X soon. I just bought the GPU first so I could at least game better than just using the A4-6300.

 

The issue is that whenever I put in the GPU, it will not boot. I tried the basic troubleshooting steps like, reset bios, unplug all connection from the MOBO, etc, Sometimes it will power on (Will light up/fans spin) then power off right away.

 

When I remove the GPU and reset the bios again, it will boot with just the APU.

 

The weird thing is that am able to make the whole system work by hot plugging the RX570 to my motherboard and I am able to use / game without any issues. Until I turn off the PC and it's the whole ordeal all over again. I have no issue when I just do a restart though the whole system boots back up like normal.

 

I suspect that the PSU not giving enough power to the GPU to boot correctly. I can't confirm it since I only have 1 PSU available (the one installed)

 

I appreciate any help that you could provide.

 

Thanks in advance!
