Ram is all the same, so my pc just turned off for no reason and now it wont start with the card in but its fine without it, it was working fine i dont really know what to do i tried switching the ram and so on. Any info will be appreciated. Update : so i went to the shop i got my gpu from and it was indeed dead, but im affraid it might have affected the pciex16 slot, i will try another gpu to see if the mobo is messed up the rest is good im currently on the integrated graphics and its fine, the gpu is still on warranty so thats good.
 
Solution
There is a led indicator in GPU, does it lit up when you power on PC while it's connected?

-Try the card in another PC and see if it's working in that.
