Hello all.
Recently my old PSU failed me so I bought a new one, specifically the corsair CS650M to compensate for my build, and I ran into a problem.
First of I would like to say that I have no case to fit the motherboard in so everything is outside of the case. I am using my screwdriver to jump the power buttons on my motherboard in order for my computer to work.
As I plug in everything in the correct spots, I ran into a problem where my GPU would not display anything on screen. When jumped, the fans would spin for 30 second before stopping. I have connected a DVI and HDMI cable to 2 of my monitors and none of them seem to show any display.
If I am getting this right I have attached a 6+2 PCIe cable to a 8 pin card (MSI Armor GTX 1070) and have attached the 8 pin end of the PCIe connector (labelled type3) into the back of the PSU labelled "6+2 PCIe" just under that is a "4+4 CPU" slot.
I am unsure if it the wrong cabling into the card that it is not giving it enough power or something else that I have done wrong.
I can also tell you that the PSU is semi modular therefore the cable that is labelled "CPU" is a 8 pin connector that goes into my 12v 4x2 connector at the top of the motherboard.
My motherboard is also a Gigabyte Z170-K3.
I am also typing this on my PC using the onboard graphics from the motherboard by my HDMI cable, confirming that it is not a motherboard issue but GPU.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
