I just got a new PSU evga 750 W GA and when I hooked it up to my computer my GPU wasn’t producing any output and all of my things connected to the motherboard like my keyboard and my Internet cable were not working at all but the computer was Lighting up RGB and all so I have no idea what’s happening and the fans were running as well.

What are the specs of the rest of the system, specifically what motherboard model (though all specs are wanted)

That motherboard should have 4 LEDs on the right side, right above the 24 pin . Which LED is illuminated (if there is any at all)?

None are illuminated except for the CPU at the beginning but then a few seconds after it turns off and based on my other PSU This has happened before and normally works perfectly fine so that is probably not an issue. I think that I plugged in the wrong side of the power cable to the CPU I’m not sure if that would do anything but that’s the only thing I can think of like all of the ports the HDMI to USB and display ports they are all not functioning. This is extremely bizarre.

Is the monitor the only thing plugged into the Graphics card? I've had issues before when it sets the main display to something like a Vive and doesn't allow me to see anything on my main monitor. You could also have just gotten a bad Power supply, in which case contact EVGA support and see if they will test it for you

Well no I don’t think you understand everything I plug-in isn’t working the Internet cable usually has a light on it flashing when it shows it’s plugged into another device it’s not even showing that. I have multiple monitors plugged in to make sure it wasn’t just one and yes I did have a vive plugged in but that wasn’t the issue. it must just be the PSU I just want to make sure nothing was fried like the computer looks like it’s running fine but then when you try to plug anything in it just won’t register it it won’t show up anywhere it’s like it’s not powered. I don’t know if it be worth like I said before trying to re-plug-in the CPU power cable because I have the side which it’s supposed to be plugged into the Psu plugged in to the CPU so I didn’t think that wouldn’t make much of a difference but I guess I’ll have to try it.

If it's a fried CPU or motherboard RIP.

You have done nothing else than changing PSU?

Kinda weird to be honest, is all cables attached correctly and nothing is loose either?

Also able to use other PSU again?

To be honest I think I just didn’t plug in the CPU correctly or maybe I did I don’t think anything is fried but I can try my other PSU. Everything is operating fine it’s just not registering anything. And I’ve double checked all the cables nothing is loose everything is powered and if anything is fried it be a nice time to get an upgrade.

oof. Nice if you can check with your other PSU and do like you had it before. :)
