Hello, I recently build my first build without its case. I seem to be having an issue with the GPU fans jiggle when I turn the motherboard on and when I go onto windows, it does not show up under device manager not can I install drivers because apparently no comparable hardware is found. I currently do not have a case (this is temporary for a week and all parts are nee except the GPU)

My specs go as follows

EVGA GeForce GTX 950 Superclocked+

CPU Intel Pentium G3258 3.2GHz Dual-Core Processor

Motherboard MSI H81M-P33 Micro ATX LGA 1150

Crucial Ballistix Sport XT 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory

Storage - Some old laptop hard drive

And a NH-L91 CPU cooler


I can confirm the GPU works with my laptop using the external GPU adapter

The motherboard has a 4 pin connected, 24 pin connected and the GPU had one 6 pin at the top


Any ideas on why the GPU could be playing up would be appreciated

Here is a photo of what the build looks like if it helps

Thanks to anyone who can help

don´t you have warranty on the 950?
RMA it, return to shop or evga

baking could revive it, if heat and solder problems over time would be the problem.
But I doubt that it would help in your case. I think some chip or other component failed and to repair that, you would have to replace this particular one.
