Graphics card troubleshooting.

[Jimmy Pritt]

I am building my own computer for the first time, and am having some trouble. I have got everything hooked up and ready to boot, but when ever i turn it on. The graphics card will not start up.
My specs are:
CPU: AMD Athlon II x4 760k
RAM:G.Skill sniper 1600
MOBO: fm2-a75ma-p33
GPU: Gigabyte r9 270x
If there is anything else you need to know about then ask me.

Is the gpu hooked up to the power supply?

If so, what's your wattage.on your PSU?

Do u hear any sounds, lights coming on the gpu?

Make sure the card is in a fully supported pcie express slot X16 and plugged in all the way in.

Everything is hooked up correctly. I contacted one of my friends, and they said it could be the drivers. What do you think?

I don't think it's a driver issue. In order to update the driver the system has to detect the card. You just might have a bad card. I would contact gigabit for more troubleshooting assistance.

Ok so I unplugged the card and tried to boot into the bios. It will not even boot.
