I've just built a PC based on the specs on logical increments (the exceptional tier):
GPU: EVGA GTX 1070
CPU: i7 6700K/ Cryorig H5 (fan)
Motherboard: Azus Z170 Pro Gaming
PSU: EVGA G2 750
I also have one SSD, one HDD, and one optical drive installed.
When I power up the machine without the GPU installed it starts normally, and I can look at the BIOS settings and see all of my components installed and looking fine. When I plug in the GPU and push the power button, the fans wiggle but then stop. Nothing happens. I tried it with my old GPU in the same PCIe slot (a Radeon HD6850) and it was able to again start up and go into bios (I haven't installed windows yet). I've also tried plugging in a different power connector from the PSU to the card and I've tried every VGA slot available on the PSU. Could the power supply be too weak or is there a short in my graphics card? Or could it be something else?
