So today I bought a new graphics card from Best Buy, I bought a EVGA GeForce GTX 950 SSC for around $200
When I came home to install it, there wasn't away to connect it to my CX750M Corsair Power supply.
Computer turned on just fine, and displays worked but I was greeted with "please connect pci-e cord" or something.
I couldn't figure out away to connect it to my power supply so I went back to Best Buy to talk to some tech dude (not geek squad)
And he told me I needed a new power supply that could support the new graphics card.
He looked through all the power supplies and picked a cheap one out for me and I was on my way.
Came back home an hour later and hooked up the power supple to my MSI mother board, plugged the now "pci-e" cord into the graphics card, hooked up the courage cord,
Plugged in the cord to the ssd that had Windows 8.1 installed, and plugged it into the disk drive.
The computer turned on, the Mobos lights came on, and fans started up.
Everything expect for lights on keyboard and mouse and the displays are working.
I unplugged the power supply and put the old one in and sure enough it worked again.
Displays and all.
Then I plugged in the new power supply and sure enough displays won't work.
I've even hit the reset button and power button thy are ON my Mobo.
Nothing seems to work and I'm kinda pissed off I spend $300+ today for what seems like nothing....
So monitors work fine,
And Mobo isn't fried, wtf is going on with this new power supply???
My new power supply is a ThermalTake 600wat TR2
Please help me!!!
