[SOLVED] GIGABYTE 2070 Super suddenly crashes whenever computer is slightly moved

[walroos]

Hi, I just purchased a 2070 Super from Gigabyte and after putting it into my computer, it powers on fine and my computer boots up normally. However, upon slightly nudging the computer or moving it to the upright position causes the display to suddenly artifract and the computer to power down. Is the card defective? Could it possibly be so heavy that it falls out of the port slightly? Has anyone experienced anything similar? I havent heen able to download drivers yet, could this be a result of no drivers? Any help is needed

Keep the case open, and move it into and upright position and see if there is any physical changes when you do so. It might be the graphics card slightly moves, you know your issue. If it slightly moves, it means the gold doesn't meet the gold causing it to crash. These people on the overclockers forum had the same issue https://www.overclockers.com/forums...uter-freezes-when-the-case-is-(gently)-bumped
