Certainly sounds like a bad graphics card to me. Send it back to where you got it for a replacement.

Ayanrocks · May 25, 2016

no i go there but the graphics card is working fine at their service centre so the graphics card is good

What power supply are you using?

Ayanrocks · May 25, 2016

its a frontech 450 w psu and the gpu needs 300w

Starcruiser · May 25, 2016

I checked and your GPU is not listed in the compatibility list for your motherboard. The 620 is but not the 610.

pls read this thread

The thing about compatibility lists is they aren't always right, but often they are. If they listed the 510, 520, and 620 compatible but not the 610, they must have had a reason.
You'll often hear about people that get things to work that aren't on the compatibility list, but their success may not be repeatable.

Ayanrocks · May 25, 2016

so is there anything i can do now

Starcruiser · May 25, 2016

Possibly trade out your 610 for a 620 or a 510, but that's all I can think of.

Ayanrocks · May 25, 2016

if i goto the rma policy will they give me a 620 in return to the 610

Starcruiser · May 25, 2016

You may have to pay the difference, but that won't be very much on a low-end card like that.

Ayanrocks · May 25, 2016

ya i will pay that but will they give it

Starcruiser · May 25, 2016

They should. I don't see why they wouldn't.

Ayanrocks · May 25, 2016

well its india. they may not give it. thats the reason i m fearing.

Starcruiser · May 25, 2016

If you ask, the worst they can do is say no.

Ayanrocks · May 25, 2016

Then what should i do with this if its not compatible? can u suggest some motherboards that supports gt610

Starcruiser · May 25, 2016

I don't know of any retailers for India, sorry.

Ayanrocks · May 25, 2016

is the gpu compaitable with asus p5g41t_mlx

Starcruiser · May 25, 2016

Yes it should work on that one. Asus has much better support.

rgd1101 · May 25, 2016

and the monitor is connect to the gpu?

Ayanrocks · May 31, 2016

Hello everybody. I have gone to the motherboard service station and they checked the display with my graphics card and it worked flawlessly. My gt610 is supporting my motherboard. So what could be the problem if cpu,motherboard,ram ,gpu and monitor is ok.???

Starcruiser · Jun 1, 2016

A poor quality power supply could be the problem. While it may say it can produce enough power, low quality parts are often an issue. Try borrowing a power supply and testing.

Ayanrocks · Jun 1, 2016

Starcruiser :

Nevermind i fixed it without replacing any oarts. Basically a miracle. And btw my motherboard suport gt610. Whoever told u it may not doesnt know much. Giving up and saying not compatible is easy but fixing the problem need some guts. Anyway my problem is solved thanks everybody for replying!!!
