Here is my build http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1E6S6

To start off I installed all the hardware properly. When i do the first test to see if everything works my cpu fan spins for maybe 2 seconds and stops then nothing happens when i hit the power button again until i unplug the psu and plug it back in. So i wondered what caused this then i ended up removing piece by piece to see what the issue was. Finally, I removed my GPU from the PSU and the pci slot then my system worked. The light in front of the case was on, the fans were spinning on the cpu and the psu.

So my question is. Do i have to replace my 430W psu or replace my GFX card?

P.S I had no monitor or peripherals connected at this point.

Is this system brand new and this is the first power On problem or
you have being using it NORMAL for an while and now you have this problem ?

No matter what you answer for 7850 i`ll go for 500W minimum so that`s my suspected module - try with other PSU for testing !

All parts are Brand new maybe a a week old ( Sitting in the original boxs/packaging ) They were opened yesterday. But I was thinking of replacing the gpu ( With the same one ) and getting a 750W psu.
