Hello. Today I installed a Tul Powercolor HD7850 into my PC after my GeForce GT440 left me.
With that broken geforce i get the usual powerup-beep, with the hd7850 i dont. Everything is plugged in correctly, i think, but i can provide photos if you like.
System specs:
- psu: 500w apx switching sps-500xpe-p
- gpu: tul powercolor hd7850 1gb
- ram: 2x1gb ddr2
- cpu: intel core2 duo e4300 OC'd to 2,4ghz
- mobo: ms-7293vp
- 2 case fans, 1 psu fan, 1 cpu fan, 1 gpu fan (basically this thing has become a ventilator with some computing capacity to it
)
What i tried:
- 350w psu, 460w psu, 500w psu
- removed all components except cpu and put them back in one by one
- removed cmos battery
- tried with x amount of fans (they dont draw much power do they ?)
- umplugged all psus for 30min and tried again
- tried gpu on different motherboard (which might be broken, scrap pc lying around for a while, no post, but no post with that broken gt440 aswell [it's an asus abr mvp mobo])
- im using a 4pin to 6 pin psu pcie adaptor and tried that in all possible combinations
I reached a dead end here. I cant even get into bios. Ill try to get a spare trash gpu from somewhere to test the mobo (which is working i suspect) and ill ask around if any of the prople i know are still using a desktop to test the gpu (most are on laptops or.. Even.. Macs. Meh)
Any suggestions? Im not that hardware literate, unfortunately. Help me chaps! thanks in advance.
