Hello everybody

After installing a GFX 760 my BIOS freezes when booting.
I've noticed that the fans on the GPU are running.

When I switch back to the old GPU (a Geforce610) everything works normally.

What could be causing this issue? Any good advices on how to solve it?

GPU: eVGA GeForce GTX 760 Superclocked w/ ACX Cooler (2 GB)
Mobo: ASUS M5A78L-M/USB3 AM3+
PSU: NorthQ NQ-4775-650-FLEX 650 Watt PSU

Today I replaced my PSU with a Corsair CX750M should have more than enough juice to handle the GPU but the problem hasnt been solved.
