HELP. I tried upgrading my gpu and now neither of them work

[treppo]

Mother board is a asus b-350 plus

cpu is  ryzen 5 5600

psu is evga 430w

 

Hi there, I’m upgrading from a 1050 to to a 2070 super (both pictured). I have a 450w non modular psu. It worked just fine with the 1050 ti, but once I tried to use the 2070 super it didn’t display anymore. I used this daisy chained pci power cable (pictured) from the psu to power it. I then took out the 2070 and put in the 1050, which now also has no display. Please help!

Does the PC give signs of life?

Yes, the lights and fans spin up and it posts.

Just to be on the safe side, are you plugging the monitor into the motherboards output perhaps?

I made sure that it was into the gpu, and I tried other cords

I would say your a little light on power and quality in terms of the PSU.

Should still power it, and besides the old gpu dosent even work anymore

Like others have said I would definitely look into upgrading your PSU. At least a 550, but a 650 preferable

 

Only thing i can think of is reseating the cables on your PSU end. Also making doubly sure the cables are plugged in all the way on your GPU. You could also try unplugging you PC from power for 15 seconds and pressing the power button to drain caps and then plugging in back in and turning it on.

The 2070 is going to demand a lot more power than that 1050. Time to upgrade your PSU.

Clear the cmos, retry.

 

When changing the GPU, did you do anything else like replacing the thermal paste, reseating the RAM etc?

The 1050 probably doesn't need a power plug, most don't, even a 1050Ti I own gets all it's power from the PCIe slot, so the power supply wattage is not the issue here.

Try a second PCIe slot if there is one just to see if the 1050 works.

Tried it

This is a new one, where did you get that 430W PSU Relic ? Should be in a museum not your PC.

What you want is a minimum 750W PSU from a good name brand like: Corsair, EVGA, Thermaltake, Antec.

[Mark Kaine]

That psu is indeed too weak you need a *good* 500w psu minimum for this card, so A or B tier

honestly i would recommend to *not* use your current, now most likely faulty psu at all anymore. 

 

 pretty much everyone recommends a good 500w psu for this gpu... anyway,  your current one is not safe to use anymore *at all* imho.
