This is the first system I have built, with secondhand GPU and MOBO.
Specs:
-GPU: EVGA GTX 970
-CPU: i7-6700
-Motherboard: ASUS ROG b250-G
-RAM: 16GB (8x2) Ramaxel DDR4
-Storage: 2TB Hard Drive
-PSU: Corsair CV450
-Display: 144hz OC 24g2
-Case: Rotanium TG307- with 4x6w RGB fans.
I build the PC a few days ago and intially everything seemed to be going great, The Bios came up, and it started right up from my Hard drive (which I used from my old PC)
I installed new graphics drivers and browsed the web etc and everything worked. I played some GTA5 for like 3minutes (I was amazed by the smoothness of the game, I've always used a gtx 750) before the screen turned a solid orange colour and froze for a few minutes before going back to normal. This kept happening more frequently jsut while watching videos but just for a few seconds. It turns a random colour, but the PC still works (I could pause and unpause the video). The monitor also kept showing no signal after a few minutes of not using the PC and would only reconnect after I turned the PC off and on again.
This morning the minitor didn't detect anything from the GPU even after restarting so I tried to diagnose the problem by using different cables and monitors. I even put my old gtx 750 in and the monitor didn't detect that either.
Now, when I turn on the PC with the original setup that worked for a day or 2, The GPU [fan] only spins for 10 seconds while the computer starts and then stops. There is no signal from the GPU or the MOBO hdmi.
The top of the GPU is also very hot to the touch, but the fans don't spin.
Also worth noting: when I turn the PC of the Fans on the GPU jump for a second before stopping again.
The lights are on on the MOBO and everything else that has a fan is spinning as it should.
