I just bought a graphic card GTX 550Ti, and attempted to start up my PC with PSU (I assume this brand not so good and familiar) of 500 wattage (true watt unknown) though it has 6 pin and 6+2 pin on the PSU itself. It failed to start up my PC, the PSU seems to be struggling to power up the PC and shows no display. However, the CPU/GPU fan are spinning, keyboard powered up, but no display on the monitor.
What I have tried :
- Replacing CMOS battery
- Removed unnecessary peripherals from starting up the PC.
- Reseated the memory stick
- Ensure all cables plugged in
But, since first time I swapped the PSU, the PC managed to start up the PC and lasted for an hour and got me into this problem.
The graphic card is working well on my friend PC. Moreover, my previous GPU (GT630) runs perfect on my PC with the same PSU I'm using to start up GTX550Ti.
I'm not sure about considering new PSU since I've changed PSU for the third time. But if my current PSU really causes this problem, maybe I'll get better PSU to install.
