Hi! Recently I bought ASUS GeForce GTX 1050 Ti OC Strix and the card did not work with my motherboard. There was no signal from the GPU at all (card worked well on other PC). I will not explain this issue as it was already raised here (http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-3615201/nvidia-geforce-gtx-1050ti-recognized.html).
My question is: does anyone have same motherboard and uses a different GTX 1050ti card which works without any issues. There are many types and manufacturers. I already gave back Strix and I am wondering what can I buy so that I won't have any problems.

Specs:
MB: AsRock Z75 Pro3
Porcessor: i7 2600k (LGA 1155)
RAM: 12 GB
PSU: 600W

Hi again. It seems that the problem is solved. Although I gave away the Strix I bought other 1050 ti (Low Profile version from Gigabyte) and the initial effect was same: no signal from GPU. I gave another try and inserted the card into the other PCIE slot (as there are two on the motherboard) and... It works!!! So I am pretty sure that Strix would work as well. The problem was that I gave my PC before to the computer shop and guys there did not figure same thing out! Also my previous GPU was working well with the slot that GTX 1050 ti did not like :)

There should be no issues at all with any GTX 1050 Ti and that motherboard. I suspect something else is the problem. Not compatibility.
Be sure you haven't inadvertently plugged your monitor into the motherboard's video port instead of the gfx card's port.

As noted It's not only me who experienced this issue. I connected the monitors to the card port's and there was no signal. What is quite interesting there was signal from MB ports but the card was not showing up in my devices. Also there was no BIOS update available until very recently (30th May) but the new update is beta and I was a bit afraid to install it without being sure that it would fix the issue. When I used my previous card (which I am using again after returning Strix) when card is plugged in, there is no signal from MB ports and only card ports can be used. The card that I am using again is Asus GT 740 2GB. Now I am looking for some feedback from someone that is using As Rock Z75 Pro3 with quite modern and not too expensive card preferably 1050ti so I can get the same...

There is something wrong with either the card or the PCIe x16 slot, because (as you rightly suspect) the iGPU ports should be disabled when there is a card in the PCIe x16 slot. Be sure the 1050 Ti is fully and firmly in the slot and that the 6-pin connector is firmly in the card's header.

Thanks for the replies. I appreciate. But the thread is not about fixing the issue with Strix (I already returned the card to the seller) but to get a feedback from someone who owns same motherboard with any gtx 1050ti card that works. As for the last reply The answers are:
- card was connected correctly and checked also on other computer
- both motherboard and card are working - MB with a different GPU and card with a different MB.

Well... that's the problem. The AsRock Z75 Pro3 works with any modern PCIe x16 card. It should have worked fine with that card if all is well with the system. Is it possible that the 6-pin wasn't firmly into the card's header? Or that your PSU's 6-pin wasn't providing +12V as it should have?
