GPU fans spin for some seconds then stop spinning

[Mekkerino]

Hey guys

Recently my new Pc arrived and I had some problems with the gpu . An r9 380 from sapphire

The fans started spinning and then stopped for a sec.

I thought it was the PSU so I changed the VS650 to a Seasonic S12II 620W

Now,i built everything,set it up and it still does the same as it did before.

The gpu fans start spinning and then stop after 2 sec and I get no signal.

Here are the parts  http://pcpartpicker.com/p/VKYpxr

The mobo has ez debug leds and the vga led is turning on

what can I do?

does the gpu overheat? do the fans start spinning once you put some workload to your gpu? i mean don't worry about your gpu overheating so much that it will break, your pc will be shut down before that, and if thats the case you still gonna rma that because its defective. what that would accomplish is that for example my gtx 970 has 0db mode, when the fans don't spin when they don't have to. your might have the same

The fans should actually stop. Here is a quote from Sapphire's site:

Intelligent Fan Control II
Intelligent fan control allows one or more fans to be stopped for lower noise when the card is under light load and automaticaly restarted when the card temperature rises

But it's weird that you don't get a signal.

Intelligent Fan Control II

Intelligent fan control allows one or more fans to be stopped for lower noise when the card is under light load and is automatically restarted when the card temperature rises – resulting in a smoother, quieter operation.

Try running a game or a benchmark (Heaven, Valley, FireStrike, etc) and see if they start spinning. Monitor your GPU temp and if for some reason they aren't spinning up shut down the benchmark before temps get out of control.

can't get signal? you mean that your pc doesn't recognize that you have a gpu installed? try a different pci slot? make sure you have plugged in the right cables? also what you mean "there is nothing installed on the pc" , so you don't have os or what do you mean?

I have no os,literally nothing

As I said,the gpu fans start spinning and then stop after 2 or 3 sec

so bios doesn't recognize it? well why don't you just go ahead and install os on it? whats stopping you? if the pc boots up then all good in the hood(probably). ez debug light can be.. something. consult manual. try using only 1 ram stick, make sure they are in the correct slots, try the different pci slots.

vga signal? oh cmon man what the fuck, vga? use anything else than that. but... you just plug the shitty vga cable on your mobo vga connector, you don't need a gpu for installing a darn os

what mobo is that? + didn't your monitor come with hdmi cable? don't you have a hdmi cable anywhere in your house? your TV for example? from what i gather usually mobos have like every type of connector type, probably not DP but most likely vga, dvi, hdmi...

ok

also, make sure your monitor is connected to the gpu, not the motherboard

 

though it shouldnt make the vga debug LED light up anyway

 

try the ram method first, if that doesnt work then we'll try others
