Msi geforce gtx660 ti monitor wont leave sby mode

[Strikeeagle08]

I just purchased the above card and my monitor wont leave standby mode, my psu is 500w max full model is fsp500-70ep. Part number 9pa5008000 I was told by the retailer that my psu would be enough so idk what else the problem could be, please give me some guidance on what i should do, thank you.

well, first off, your psu is terrible. it's got 3 12v rails if my googling is correct?

its either your psu, or the gpu is bad.

set your bios to initialize pci-e first
