    New PSU not powering graphics card

    I recently installed a new PSU to get more wattage for my GPU because it kept crashing games and my computer on graphic intensive games.

    So I installed the new PSU and EVERYTHING ELSE IS GETTING POWER EXCEPT FOR THE GPU

    I thought I broke something during the process of switching them out so I decided to switch it back. Sure enough it powers it on just fine.

    So is my PSU faulty? That’s the only explanation I can think of.

    PSA: I’d give my specs but I currently have the computer out of commission. If you have questions about my specs I’ll try give them accordingly to any questions

    SOLVED!!! I don’t know how to mark this solved but.

    All I had to do was flip the cables. The wider lips on top of the cables were plugged into the PSU instead of the components
