Black screen when gtx 960 is plugged in.

[traxxxie]

Hello everyone

I just finished building my pc and I've got one small problem.

The pc doesn't give any input when my graphics card is plugged in (gtx 960)

I'm pretty confident it isn't broken since I tested it with another pc and it works.µ

Fans do spin when I turn the system on.

Maybe some setting I need to change in the bios?

Without the graphics card everything works fine. (Pc starts up, can get into windows and runs smoothly.

Thanks guys!

Specs:

windows 10 - 64 bit

B360M DS3H motherboard

GTX 960 graphics card

VS650 battery

intel i5 8400

Seagate 2000gb

Make sure the monitor is connected to the GPU, not the motherboard's video ports. If it still doesn't work, go into the BIOS and find 'Primary Display Adapter' setting(or something similar) and make sure it is set to PCI-e, not onboard or integrated or something else.

Also, that power supply is bad, return it if possible and get a good unit like the Corsair CX450 or CX550, or SeaSonic S12II 520 W.
