Question GTX 1060 NO SIGNAL CODE 43

[Cure79]

Hi!Luka here.I recently picked up a gtx 1060 3gb model , and like shown in the video the graphics card owner sent me he intalled the latest drivers for it , played some games and ran some benchmarks/tests.Everything was going alright and i ordered that card.The next day i got it when i pluged it in my motherboard.
I5-3450
MOBO8H61-MX
The psu is arena series 500w one which is just enough for it.
The graphics card problem is that there is no signal when pluged in the gpu.I switched to IGpu in the bios so i can see stuff.I downloaded gpuz to make sure my graphics card is there becaues i couldn't see it in task manager or device manager.
After that i went and downloaded the latest drivers for it , and after i did that finnaly the graphics card appeared in the device manager , but not in the task manager if that matters?In the device manager it had a warning sign , and when i double clicked at it it said i have code error 43? I tried multiple things like whole reinstalling windows , using ddu and downloading older drivers , but nothing seems to be working... To mention tha the graphics card fan is spinning , and its warm at its minimum ( its not overheating ).
I hope this is just a hardware issue because i was going to upgrade to a am4 socket mobo when i get enough money.

Did you use the 6 pin power cable from the PSU to the GPU?

Don't know what the PSU is. If it's a Chieftec iArena 500W, I'd try and get my hands on a far better PSU to test this GPU on than that one, which is extremely poor quality.

I5-3450 quad core 3.1 base
P8H61-MX mobo
12 gigs of ram at 1600 mhz both sticks tested working fine
Manli GTX 1060 M-NGTX1060/5RCHDPPP
PSU Chieftec I-Arena 500w ATX


If you type the code " M-NGTX1060/5RCHDPPP " or whatever is it the exact model should appear

I don't know the exact psu information , u can search it up cuz my english is pretty bad and i won't be able to tell exact information

Ideally, something of Corsair CX quality or better.

I wouldn't go below Tier B on that linked page for anything that had a GPU that required supplementary power.

Hopefully, you can borrow one or get it from somewhere that has a good return policy. The PSU is a suspect but it's not certain that it's the cause of this particular problem, and it's hard to rule out other things while a junky PSU is in the mix.

It also could very well be that the GPU doesn't work properly and whatever video you're referring to was made to rip you off. Give me a couple hours with editing tools and I can show Cyberpunk running on a ham-and-cheese sandwich.

He had a positive rating about the stuff he sold before , so i wouldnt acuse him of giving me a faulthy card ...Besides he offered me a rx 470 rog strix till i manage to fix this issue because the card was working fine at his place

Is there anything you would suggest me trying to do before putting the card in another system?And can the card damage the other system im putting in it?

UPDATE : I did get signal and the card accepted the drivers.... I don't know how and why or whatever.The thing is i ran furmark and the temperatures were just fine and the gpu accepted the drivers and everything , even played a few games but after a reset the drivers dissapeared and the code 43 came back again ?
