Hey guys,
I have an ASrock 880GMH/USB3 mother board I purchased new about 6 months ago and I've upgraded my PSU from 275 watts to a full PSU at 500 watts. The PSU powers components fine up until I add a graphics card to its single PCI-e 16x slot. Regardless of the card, it won't power it. I put a measly nVidia G100 graphics card that doesn't take any external power cables (like a PCIe 6-pin - can't be anymore than 75W) to power it. None the less, even when I put in an nvidia 8800GTX with external power, it doesn't start up, the fans twitch for a millisecond and it dies. Not quite sure what to do...
