Graphics card causing PC not to boot

[Corn1344]

Hello, when i was casually gaming yesterday my computer, out of nowhere, shut down. All the fans and all the lights shut down instantly. After realising it was´t going to reboot i tried turning it back on without success. After som troubleshooting i realised that whenever the GPU was in the PCIe slot WITH the 8 pin connected, my computer refused to start. However, if i place the card in the PCIe slot WITHOUT connecting the 8-pin the card boots up and the system boots up just as normal (I know that can be bad so i just left it on for a couple of secs). So that makes it a problem between my brand new PSU and the 10 month old GPU, since the pus goes into safety mode and does´t start if it is connected to the GPU. I have been trying to solve this ever since it happened to if anyone has ANY suggestions please write them here. Im open for every suggestion.

i have tested 2 PSU:s with the GPU with the same results, and i also tested the gpu in another system and got the same result, no boot at all.

 

SPECS:

 

CPU: i5 6600k

GPU: EVGA 1070 FE

MOBO:  gigabyte z170x ultra gaming 

RAM: 16 GB Hyperx Fury

PSU: EVGA Supernova G3 550W

STORAGE:  2x samsung 850 EVO 250 GB

COOLING: h60 cooler + 4 fans in the system, all in all, 6 fans

you either need a second gpu or a second psu or a psu tester to sort out what parts broken

Hi, thanks for your reply, i forgot to add that i have tested 2 PSU:s with the GPU with the same results, and i also tested the gpu in another system and got the same result, no boot at all.

yep, sure seems like it´s dead, unfortunately. Oh well hopefully EVGA will be kind and send a replacement.
