I’m not sure what no PCIe slot means..... it seems like you have a farely old system so it’s probably overheating in an hour. I would replace the thermal paste on your GPU and CPU and then see if that fixes the problem. If not it is likely a bad PSU or failing RAM. It could also be a corrupted OS or failing drive but I don’t think that’s the case based on what you are saying. Does your case have good cooling. One simple but effective trick to improve cooling on bad air flow cases is just to rip off the side panel. Good luck.

If there is no PCIe slot on the card, then you won't be able to install it at all.

 

What are you doing when the computer shuts off?

shutting off after sometime could be CPU or graphics card overheating, check their temperatures with HWmonitor.

 

@Crunchy Dragon @aezakmi I assume he means there's no spare PCIe slot on the motherboard to test the card with. A lot of guessing going on here

Sorry for the confusion what I meant to say is there is no 6 pin connecter or 8 pin connecter on the gpu. There is a pci e slot.

There are no power pin connectors on the GPU because it draws little power and the motherboard is enough for giving it the power needed.

 

My thoughts:

 

1. Test the integrated GPU. If it works ok with the integrated GPU, then the GT 730 might be faulty / faulty PSU (physical GPU draws more power than integrated GPU).

 

2.CPU / Motherboard temperatures might get too high and the system shuts down to prevent damage.

 

3. Try reinstalling windows, but a fresh installation, without any windows updates.

 

Most likely shuts off due to high temperatures of the system.

I took out my gpu but when was doing that I noticed my cpu fan was not put on right and it giggled a lot like there was no thermal paste.

I took out my gpu plugged the HDMI into the mother board but when my pc starts up it says the time in the bottom but the resolution is smaller and worst

Change the resolution to your monitor's native resolution. You said the CPU cooler giggled. Get the CPU cooler out and screw it tight on the cpu until it doesn't move. After taking it out check if it's thermal paste there before putting it back again.

thanks man my pc is up and running but i tried fixing the cpu cooler and there was hardly any thermal paste and tightening down the screws didnt stop it from giggling there is a weird clamp to hold down my cpu cooler and it would not clamp down with out bending the heat sinks and possibly braking a pin on the cpu. the cpu cooler is called a cooler master P80.

I've had these coolers to my AMD systems. Actually, it doesn't use screws (idk how did you used screws on it). The CPU socket must have something out of plastic put around it, where in the middle is the cpu socket (photo 1).  This is what the screws are used for, for that plastic.

 

 

watch this video and make sure you install the cooler the same like this.
