Is my GPU causing my PC to not start?

[bowephos]

So the issue was when I was playing a game the PC shut down, I restarted it and then it turned off within 1 second of powering up. Took out GPU computer would turn on like normal.

Fast forward a could of days.

I install a new PSU (EVGA 1000W GQ) with higher wattage thinking the old PSU died. Initially it turned on but did make a weird buzzing sound which I believe came from the GPU. Then my computer started doing the same thing as before and immediately turned off. Again, took out GPU and it works, plugged in monitor too the onboard MB graphics and Display and everything works like a charm.

Is my GPU dead?

Specs :

GPU - Amd 7900 (3gigs) - old
CPU - 4790k Intel (Liquid cooling) - semi NEW
Memory - Patriot viper 3 2x8gb
MB - msi z97 - semi NEW
Psu - EVGA 1000w GQ - brand NEW
oldPSU - 900w altec (worked for years even dual GFX cards) - old

OLD = First built computer 4 years ago
Semi new = Within last year
brand NEW = days old.


Note: MB and CPU brand new and worked before and still works.

Sounds about right for a burned GPU. Did you try in anther slot, just in case that's a problem ?

that wold be my first guess but as mentioned above you may have a bad PCIe slot as well.

Yeah I tried both slots.

Yep, tried both slots available.

It's probably a toast but if you could try it in another computer and does same thing it would confirm it.
