So I got a Ryzen 2600x and an Asus X470i mini itx motherboard for a small form factor case I bought in japan. I installed the cpu correctly, attached the wraith spire cooler that was included, put in my Corsair vengeance 16gb 3000 kit and attached my Asus Strix 1070 to it.
I POSTed the system, and the white light indicating a GPU problem came on. I tried it again and the same thing kept happening, even with 1 stick of ram. It turns out my sfx PSU has died 5 minutes outside the box. I started using my old EVGA psu for testing, and the same thing happened except the PSU wasn’t dead. I got my old R9 380 from my old computer and plugged it in and it worked flawlessly. I put my 1070 in my old PC that the R9 380 was in and it and it worked flawlessly too. I don’t know why but my 1070 will not work on my new X470 motherboard but my R9 380 works on it flawlessly. I even put the 1070 in the pc I’m upgrading from and it worked. I have no clue why it does this but maybe one of y’all can help. I appreciate any input.
Edit: found this scratch on the pcie connector to my 1070. It still works in all the pcs but the X470 board. Here is the image
