Hey guys,
I sold my old GPU (HIS Radeon HD 7950 IceQ Boost) to my friend, because I was getting a new GPU (the one from my signature).
Now we tried upgrading his old GPU (GTS 450) to my GPU (HIS Radeon HD 7950 IceQ Boost) on my friends PC, but we came to the conclusion we didn't have enough pins and the PSU wasn't powerful enough for this GPU (HIS Radeon HD 7950 IceQ Boost).
So we bought a brand new PSU (Corsair VS550) and installed that, connected everything, everything was fitting and did some tests.
It was working perfectly, but only with the old GPU (GTS 450). The PSU installation was working, but the new GPU (HIS Radeon HD 7950 IceQ Boost) was not.
The problem was that with my GPU (HIS Radeon HD 7950 IceQ Boost) installed it didn't output a display signal.
Though, we did notice that the fan of my GPU (HIS Radeon HD 7950 IceQ Boost) was working.
Does anyone know what the problem may be?
Some more info/tests:
The display drivers are uninstalled with DDU before.
We tried to connect the new GPU (HIS Radeon HD 7950 IceQ Boost) on a monitor and on a TV, both in combinations with HDMI and DVI cables.
However, it didn't work. It only worked with the old GPU (GTS 450).
With the new GPU (HIS Radeon HD 7950 IceQ Boost) installed, the PC seems to act fine (stays on), but only no display signal.
The specs of the PC:
- PC: Medion Akoya A622 (prebuild)
- CPU: Intel Core i5-2300 (prebuild)
- RAM: 2x4GB RAM (modified)
- PSU: Corsair VS550 (modified)
- MOBO: MS-7707 (prebuild)
- GPU: GTS 450 (old GPU) / HIS Radeon HD 7950 IceQ Boost IceQ Boost (new GPU).
Pictures of the setup with the GTS 450: https://1drv.ms/f/s!AipU60UY7qygjEQQPblT0oh7Blko.
We think either the GPU (hd 7950 IceQ Boost) got stuck, or our motherboard isn't compatible Sad.
Tell me what you think, or maybe you know the solution.
