Need help setting up MSI gtx 980 ti g6

[megatronends]

I just bought my first gpu ever, msi gtx 980 ti g6.

But when I installed it in my new system, it not booting up, light on the mobo lights up but nothing is showing up on monitor.

Also if i remove the gpu system boots via onborad gpu.
Can anyone help me if I am missing something.

It came with 6/8 pin convertor. I hope we have to use it for inner 8 pin connector, while using 8 pin connector for outer one.

 

I have 650 W EVGA power supply I hope thats enough for this card ?

You must connect your monitor directly to the graphics card.

Clear CMOS. Does your motherboard have a button on the rear I/O specifically for this?

do you have it in a pci slot with all power connectors filled and connected to the monitor?

No it doesn't. They system is not even booting to bios .

Yes it it on the primary pcie slot on the mobo. with 6 + 8 pin power connector

Remove the CMOS battery from the motherboard then re-insert. This will revert the BIOS to default. If you've changed anything in the BIOS it is best to write them down in order to apply them again.

Could be a silly question but have you got two 8 pin power connectors plugged in? The MSI is non reference and uses 8+8 not 8+6 like the base 980 Ti.

But the instruction manual with it said use the 8 to 6 pin converter provided. Thus i am using 8 + 6(8 to 6) pin connector.
