Question Black screen after gpu installation

[Abadartist]

I have a 1050ti and just got a 1070 and I’m getting blackscreened. I’ve uninstalled and 1050ti drivers, updated bios, booted in safe mode and it’s still black, I’m using a 6pin to 8pin adapter for my psu but that’s about it. I don’t know what else to do nothings working.

YOU NEED A NEW PSU, a 6 pin to 8 pin adapter won't do the job.
What PSU?

You shouldn't need adapters if this is your PSU ^

I looked at the wrong Pulse PSU , I looked at a Gigabyte , the one in your setup is very poor , I wouldn't use it to run any build.

This is your PSU , I wouldn't even use it , could harm your components.

Because shouldn’t my pc st least come on with my current a setup a day it should work even if poorly

You need to change the PSU , it is horrible quality.

PSU of bad quality and adapter 6->8 pin can be an issue but...

Did you check the card elsewhere? Was it working fine with another PC?
If yes, then maybe You can lend for a while some other, better PSU to test it with Your mobo and GPU?

Maybe the card itself is broken?
Also, do You have some other screens attached or only one? If yes, check the second screen first, maybe it displays data there (TV for example)

Before buying new psu, You should exclude other possibilities:

• damaged card
• damaged PCI-e slot
• card not properly put in PCi-e slot
• all cables plugged where they should be

etc etc

EDIT: If I were You, i would take my rig to some computer service or some friend and ask them for 2 minutes of their time - plug 8 pin connectors from other psu to Your graphics to check if it works. They should do that much for free.
