    [SOLVED] GTX 970 - No video output - Showed up in hidden devices once then never again

    What do you mean by putting in 4x slot? my 970 has 2x6 PCIE-E pins so it wouldn't work I am pretty sure, cancelled my order gonna buy a new PCI-E cable first just in case.

    [SOLVED] GTX 970 - No video output - Showed up in hidden devices once then never again

    I have no PC to test it in, not for 3 weeks at least, but I don't think it is the rest of the PC because it happened when I had my old motherboard, processor and ram but same GPU and still happened after upgrading ram processor and motherboard.
