HI guys

I recently bought a new psu for my pc since my old one was too weak and a bad brand. After installing that and my new gpu (MSI R7 370 4GB) the PC doesn't start up. It turns on, but the keyboard, mouse and screen doesn't and it also shuts down after a minute or so.

Specs:
CPU: intel core i5-3330 quad core 3.00GHz
GPU: MSI R7 370 4 GB
2 x 4GB DDR3 RAM
Motherboard: ECS H61H2-M12
PSU Seasonic M12-II 620w 80 PLUS Bronze

I lent the gpu to another friend who's psu is weaker than mine and it works perfectly on his. My previous gpu was a Geforce GT 240 if that helps.

Drivers would not cause the system to just shut down like that. Make sure you have all plugs in the card, as well as to the motherboard in properly. Re-seat the RAM also. Remove the card, update the BIOS if it's not on the latest, try it again.
