I posted in another thread similar to this in cooling, but couldn't figure the solution. My pc died a week ago and after some tests, I can run an old GPU on the PC, with problems granted drivers and such. But some people said it could be an issue with the PSU somehow frying the GPU by accident and since I don't want to brick another 200$ card, can anyone help me determine if it is the card or PSU, or how to figure it out with testing? It runs fine with an older card model I have laying around, something that looks like a GTX 630 ish, and so I think it probably is a GPU issue but do not want to risk the PSU being wack somehow. Thank you for any answers. Also to note, the supposedly "Bad" GPU, it can plug into the MOBO and have the 2pin connector plugged in and the system boots, yet the GPU has a RED LED display, indicating a power issue because the cable isn't properly connected obviously. Though once fully plugged in, the system won't even light up, no fans will even spin.
