I recently built a new computer. I got a 750W Corsair powering a 4670k and GTX 770. I installed it as parts came. The video card was delayed so I decided to construct my computer and install windows while I waited for the video card. Windows installed flawlessly. The next day when the video card arrived I installed it with little difficulty but not even a second after booting the system lost power. After this i pulled the video card but I could never get my motherboard to boot. I decided to check the PSU by using it to power an older computers motherboard to see if the PSU was defective. It worked fine so I decided the motherboard must of been defective. I ordered a different one. The same problem as the first one occurred. It turned on for a second then died, never to come on again. Now when I flip the PSU switch on/off everything excluding things connected to the motherboard turn on. What is going on here?
Is it the video card or the PSU?
TL;DR
Computer worked fine before video card. After video card motherboard is bricked, twice. 750W, GTX 770, 4670k
