Hi! I have this PC
Motherboard: Foxconn 2abf
Processor: i5-2400 3.6GHz
Video Card: gtx 460 2gb
Power: 700w dunno the model
Ram: 8gb
And the problem is: i bought a new video card(rx 480 8gb), i changed the old card with the new one and my monitor doesn't work, mouse too same with the keyboard, turn on for like 2 sec all of them, and then turn off. Any solutions ?

Is the bios Legacy Only? You know, the old blue & white, or black & white bios menus?
Newer gpus require a motherboard that supports UEFI bios, a set of fancy, colored menus.

If your motherboard's bios is Legacy Only, an RX 480 will not work.
The most recent gpus you will be able to install are:
-on Nvidia's end, GTX 700 series.
-on AMD's end, Radeon R9 series.

If it does sport a UEFI bios, then you likely just need to update the bios for the card to work.

Ok, then it's Legacy Only. The RX 480 won't work in that motherboard.
You are limited to the cards I mentioned above.
