gtx 1050ti problem

[gezz60]

Hi Guys, i have an Acer Aspire T3 - 710 with an intel i7-6700 cpu @ 3.40ghz with 16gb of ram 64 bit & a GEFORCE GTX 1050 gpu 2gb MSI which is working fine, my problem is i now have a GEFORCE GTX 1050Ti 4gb MSI which i decided to install as i run a flight simulator and the extra memory on the gpu would be a big help but on installation i get no signal at all to the monitor,.

The gpu is installed correctly i even changed the cmos battery on the motherboard but i get no signal at all,when i re-install the 1050 all is ok,i have tried the 1050Ti again but still no signal,the computer boots up ok but no signal at all,i have had the 1050Ti tested & all is ok so i am really at a loss what to do next, i read somewhere online that the Acer T3 - 710 will not produce a signal with the 1050Ti,any help is greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Gezz

do you have enough power to power your 1050ti? some 1050ti needs a 6pin connector to run, if you don't have the 6pin connected, card would not turn on.

It's a low profile gpu so takes it's power from the motherboard,my PSU is a corsair HX750w.

honestly that TI should fire right up. try a different monitor input and GPU output. if that isn't working then try the card in a different PC to see if it's DOA. At that point, I'd be looking into getting a refund/replacement.
