Brand new graphics card isn’t being detected by my pc

[Devin H]

I just purchased a brand new gpu - msi 1060 6gb oc edition -  and I put in my rig wired everything up correctly and had no post from the gpu but integrated graphics worked. I remounted the gpu several times and made sure it was seated correctly but still had the same result every time. If someone could help me out here I’m at my extent of troubleshooting.

brand new doesnt always mean working, if you can, test it on another pc

 

doa gpus arent that uncommon

Sounds patronizing but did you plug in the 6 pin power connector. It is easy to over look.

Some motherboards actually have a setting in BIOS to use the built in GPU or external Graphics Card.  Check your BIOS to see if you need to change it there.

I had a 1050ti in my rig before this card that was working fine but that card likewise does not work. Never had these problems before windows 10.

I have been in the bios and set the pcie as the primary video output

When you get to windows, does it show up in the Device Manager as being detected?

[Devin H]

neither of my two gpus show up in my device manager, they also dont show up in my system info

If you are trying two GPUs, one confirmed to be working, and neither are being detected it's likely the PCIE slot. Try another one, most ATX motherboards have 2.

I tried the second pci like you said but still nothing

RMA the card if you can't test it on another system.

So you installed fresh driver or not upon booting up with your new GPU ?

[Devin H]

Currently my card isn’t even being recognized by the system nor is my old one which I had working previously
