Halp it's all gone wrong!

Ginga_NZ

Edit I was a fool idiot and forgot to plug in power cables.

 

 

 

Ok so I recieved my new 5700xt today. 

Got home from work and got ready to put it in.

Booted into safe mode.

Used DDU

Removed nvidia drivers with power off when finished.

System powers down.

I remove the 1050ti.

I put in the 5700xt.

I boot the system.

Nothing.

Heart attack.

Internet scrabble. 

Oh I'm an idiot supplemental power.

Plug power cables in. (After struggling with the 6+2 pin orientation.)

Power back on and... nothing.

More internets. Ok maybe I need to check bios settings and stuff.

Back in goes the 1050ti, the card I use when I originally built the system which worked with no drivers, but now nope nothing.

 

So yeah. Ideas solutions anything is welcome.

 

Rest of the system is a ryzen 1600 (not af variant) gigabyte b450 gaming 3 mobo 16gb corsair ram, two 500gb ssd, a 240gb ssd and a 500gb HDD

Like nothing happens when you power it on? no fan spin anywhere?

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Yes I'm get fan spin on the cpu cooler and case fan. ( Don't worry I'm getting a new case it'll be fans soon) gpu lights up mobo lights up hdd is spinning. Just no output to display. But when I disconnected the hdmi cable the screen knew it was disconnected from something. It's the only cable I have and was working fine 15 minutes earlier when I was DDU and stuff.

Maybe just leave the display unplugged for a while so it can totally drain, maybe 10 minutes or something while you reseat power plugs and your RAM

 

no idea what could have happened

I know what  happened, while I was being a novice fool trying to work out the 6+2 pin I disconnected the cpu 8pin, and forgot to plug it in.
