well i got a problem lately, it's because the pc won't power up when i tried to open..
but i also got a problem before that. pc's run but theres no display..i don't know what to do..could it be the videocard or the pci e slot?my card was over 2yrs old i think its 56-60 something on idle and 70-80 on full load..
it works fine when i use the integrated videocard but hell i can't play games smoothly

If im getting this right your PC wont power when you have the card in the PCIE slot ?

If that is correct then i would suggest the card is bad. I have had a similar problem in the past. I sent the PC off and they said the Graphics card was bad.

well the pci-e slot works the only problem is when i plug in the videocard the pc wont power up and the fans arent spinning leaving a noise .

If the PC works without the card but dosent work with the card then its probably the card thats bad.
