Hello,
the title explains the main part.
I study Computer Engineering so i think i can communicate.
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z77X-D3H
PSU: Corsair CX600
So, i have this machine for a few years now. 1.5 years back my AMD Sapphire Radeon Hd 7800 died on me. Screen turned on but no image (just black). I made sure windows were not actually running in the background. The PC couldnt boot correctly with the gpu on.
So i did the trick as a last resort to heat it in the oven and got one more year of smooth play out of it knowing that eventually i'd have to buy a new card.
Now it's beyond fixing so i got the gtx.
I uninstalled all AMD software from my PC. Shut it down. Switched cards but now i get 1long2short beeps (failed POST?) and the PC gets stuck in bootmenu giving me a short beep once every few seconds. I get the image through the GPU. Then after a minute the screen goes black.
At this point i dont know what part to blame. Any Ideas?
Update 1: I tried again to check if i explained it correctly and it seems to me that the gpu is actually
struggling with the power. The fan is working but i can hear it accelerating for a moment, dropping and trying to accelerate again.
p.s. this gpu drains power directly from the motherboard, dont know if it's relevant.
