Hi I just bought a Sapphire Radeon 7750 to go with my Gigabyte GA-Z77 mobo.
With the Radeon 7750 locked in place, the system runs (CPU fan and HDD) but the VGA fan doesn't and I get no screen display.
After taking out the card, I do get monitor display.
I am certain that this isn't a power issue as my PSU supports up to 500 watts and the Radeon 7750 isn't supposed to be a power hog.
So that leaves me wondering what else could be wrong. Maybe I'm just unlucky to get a faulty card?
I'm using an old Lenovo LCD monitor and I plugged the display cable into the mobo instead of the VGA panel. Does that cause the card to not run at all?
I'm not sure if I should send it back to the retailer as I don't really know what's wrong with the card itself.
