upgraded my HD 7570 to a Sapphire Pulse RX550 2GB in my lenovo https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ASGVKE6/?tag=komponelektr-20
I have a 400W rosewill psu and it was running my hd 7570 just fine. When the 550 is plugged in, the motherboard turns on and all my fans spin, including the GPU fans. Nothing happens and pressing the power button immediately turns the computer off.
Putting the HD 7570 back in allows the computer to boot just fine. Tested this out twice and it worked both times after swapping GPUs back and forth.
Wattage requirements look really similar online for these two cards, so anyone know what's up?
Thanks.
[EDIT] I did test the RX 550 in my enthusiast build and it works just fine.
