GPU is not appearing?

[medyobano]

I had a 1050 mini in my hand to put in my PC. When I put it in, I checked task manager, my gpu is not there. Even before I inserted this GPU, I had a tab for GPU. I had a Ryzen 3200g running its integretaed graphics. But now, I am not able to see the 1050 mini in my PC.

were you electrically  grounded when you inserted the GPU?

Windows doesn't put "un-drivered" GPU's in task manager.
Windows should have however, installed drivers if it sees it, you may have to do this yourself..https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/165686/en-us

Before wasting time downloading that...suss if its seen by Windows (not task manager style)
Rightclick the Startmenu button, click DEVICE MANAGER - What's under Display Adapters?

There could very well be a BIOS option you need to manipulate if its set to integratedGFX as primary.
