Helli dear PC Help Community, im hoping someone can help me at this problem im having with my PC.
So i was thinking about upgrading my GPU to be able to play games at higher graphics settings (and to be able to play them in the first place) from my GTX 1050 Ti to a RTX 3060 Ti.
And so i did, but after connecting it to my mainboard it just does not get recognized by it.
The LEDs on the Graphics Card are shining whenever i am starting up the PC and the GPU Fans are also spinning, but after the inital startup they just stop spinning (LEDs still shining tho) and my display stays black.
Ive already updated BIOS, did clear CMOS, deinstalled drivers (and also installed newest drivers) changed the PCIE speed from Gen 3 to 2 to 1 and to Auto (wich are all Options)
Im using a Z490i Aorus Ultra Mainboard
and my PSU has 750W Power which should be more than enough.
Another important note is that im connecting my GPU through a Riser Cable since i cant connect it directly because of the small size of the Mainboard.
The Riser Cable only supports PCIE Gen 3, but since Gen 4 PCIE is compatible for lower Generations that shouldnt be a problem, i still bought a new Riser Cable which supports PCIE 4th Gen just in case to try if thats the Problem, but it will arrive here at probably Monday - Tuesday.
I hope someone can help me figure out what im missing. Id be more that grateful!
