Hello I have a r7 370 2gb edition GPU and I just put it in and downloaded all my drivers from my motherboard to the GPU itself. And I have come to the problem that my pic is not reading it. Can it be possible that it's dead. If so how can I check or know. Is there a program or u just know because the fans and light are on and moving

gpu-z should see your gpu. make sure the mb has the newest bios file on it. with the power off check that the video card is in the video slot and you did not miss it. it should have clicked and locked in. make sure the mb chipset drivers are installed and the video cable on the gpu if it on the mb the mb video will turn on. in the bios go to primany display set it to peg.pci and not auto see if the gpu comes on. on the gpu make sure all the power plugs are filled and on the mb make sure the 4/8 pin pci power plug on the edge of the mb is filled.
