I'm having an issue with my brand new Gigabyte Z170X-GAMING 5.
The first time, I used a 1200W Antec power supply from my older workstation which I knew worked.
The motherboard would faintly let out a chirp, but nothing happened. there was no power at all except the PSU.
The second time I tried another 1000W Power Supply.
This time, it powered on and POSTed.
But once I plug in my R9 290x or R9 280x, the motherboard would do the same thing. It chrips faintly and powers off.
Could this be a Mobo issue? It seems like a premium product with good reviews.
The onboard video works just fine, it will boot up into a drive.
