Did my gpu die on me

Building a new Ryzen system since my old amd system died on me. When I try to boot up the PC with the gpu installed, nothing happens and the fans in my build twitch as if trying to spin. When the card is taken out of the system or just unplugged PCI-e cables, my system turns on fine. I've tried placing the card in different pci e expansion slots and I get the same results when it's power is connect and disconnected. And when the card is unplugged and I boot my PC up, the VGA light on my motherboard comes on. Did my gpu die on me, do I need a bigger psu, or are my expansions slots dead and I need a new MoBo. 

 

I have a Saphire R9 270x 

 

a Gigabyte gaming 3 b350 MoBo 

 

and a Corsair CX 500 psu

 

also any recommend cards simalar to or stronger this one would be appreciated, willing to spend $200 - $220

 

please and thank you

Sounds like a dead gpu to me. If everything works without it, and your psu is good enough for that card.

Probably a dead card. That PSU sucks in terms of quality though so it's time to get rid of that as well. You can give the card a try after replacing the PSU
