I've looked around, but so far no other solutions have been of any help.
I have a Gigabyte 970A-UD3 mobo, 8GB of RAM, 3 HDDs (1TB, 500GB, & 250GB), 700 Watt Coolmax PSU, and a XFX 7850 2GB GPU.
Problem: I bought a MSI 7950 3GB card (used, but taken care of) and when I tried to turn my pc on after plugging it in, I heard one long beep followed by two short ones. I let it run for a minute but after nothing coming up on the monitor I shut it down. I then plugged a second 6-pin cable thinking it was a power issue, but then the only thing that happened was my LED fans flash on then turn back off. After that I put my 7850 back in and the pc works just fine. Using to type this actually.
My rig is less than a year old so I don't think it would be my PSU losing its max output, but I'm not an expert on PSUs so I could be very wrong on that. Any help is appreciated.
