[SOLVED] GPU Upgrade Isn't Working

[JacobGiles]

Hi! I just upgraded my GTX 1060 3GB to a Zotac GTX 1660S AMP. When I installed the new gpu, the pc would not boot. None of the leds turned on, including power, but the cpu and gpu fans turned on for a second then turned right back off. I do have a prebuilt, but I did a lot of research into the upgrade and everything should have been fine. I'm pointing all of my fingers at a BIOS issue here, because I am now using the 1060 again. I am mostly wondering if a BIOS update can fix this, but if it's a different problem feel free to mention it.

Here is a link to the pc info:

https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c05577988 (I actually have an i5-6600k)

Here is the current BIOS info:
Brand: AMI Version: F.26 Date: 10/25/2018 (SoftPaq# was not listed)

BIOS I can update to:
Brand: AMI Version: F.27 SoftPaq#: sp96779 (no date was listed)

I used a 6-pin combined with a 2-pin to make 8. Also yeah, that HP Omen looks like it's closer to mine, but the motherboard is different. Mine is an Odensense2-k (IMP17-DD2). Other than that everything is the same

Edit: Everything works now, I just reseated it, tried a different 6+2 pin set, and it's fixed
