    Solved PC won't boot with GPU connected to PSU, boots when isn't.

    Also, the brand new PSU just came in, the PC is now fully operational. Sorry for the confusion, I should have been more thorough with investigation. Thank you everyone for your time. Best regards, have a nice day.

    Yup, you are correct. I would be changing only the Hz. I will save some cash then. Thanks for the reply.

    Solved PC won't boot with GPU connected to PSU, boots when isn't.

    Hello, I'm embarrased but happy to inform you that I found the culprit. It turns out, just like you said, phill, that PSU was not reliable. I should have known better. Never skimp on the PSU, is the lesson I leared i guess. It was originally bought for gigabyte ab-350 and R3 1500x and it...

    Solved PC won't boot with GPU connected to PSU, boots when isn't.

    Hello, Phil. You are right, I should have invested time in finding the right terminology and write more accurately. I guess, "Once again the PC will not power up when the GPU is connected to PSU" would fit better. The PSU is CORSAIR CX-M Series CX750M 80 PLUS BRONZE and is not out of the box...

    Solved PC won't boot with GPU connected to PSU, boots when isn't.

    Also, i noticed after a failed attempt to power up the system with gpu connected to to PSU, when i unplug the PCIE cable from it, i'll first have to turn off the PSU before it would power up again. Dont know if this is of relevance, i'll just put it here just in case.

    I belive the 750W is way above what i need. GPU tdp is 150W CPU - 65W Think those 2 are the most power hungry and its barely over 200W.

    Solved PC won't boot with GPU connected to PSU, boots when isn't.

    Yup, I am using an 8 pin to GPU, it does go in only one way, the pins are U shaped and theres a hook on the connector. The card is plugged into PCIE16 indeed. I tried plucking everything out but one RAM stick in 2nd slot, the m.2, the SSD, also tried without HDMI cable. Still does not power...

    Solved PC won't boot with GPU connected to PSU, boots when isn't.

    A week ago, my pc stopped booting. Without much thinking and testing, I immediately concluded the PSU is dead since it was old and bad. It wasn't. Bought a new PSU, a corsair 750w. Pc still won't boot with GPU powered up. Again without much thinking I concluded the GPU is dead. This time I...
