Major problem

[TipToe]

Hello I bought most of the system parts to upgrade my PC and I have some big problems
I bught this:
- AMD X6 PHENOM II
-Sapphire RADEON 6950 ATI
-ASUS M4A88T-V EVO
-KIT CORSAIR 16GB(1600MHZ)

My Power supply is weak only 400W


I assambled the PC it has power but nothing appears on Monitor please someone tell me exactly what is the problem....I mention that the frequency that the motherboard supports is 1333/1066 2000 over clock and the Ram MEM is 1600 MHZ...it may be this?

Buy a PSU with more power. I suggest you get at least a 750W. Your problem is with your graphics card not having enough power. The ATI Website suggests that 500 Watt or greater power supply with two 75W 6-pin PCI Express® power connectors recommended if your going to be running a 6950

Your power supply cannot power your card, hence it's not turning on and you have no signal on your monitor. I'm surprised it hasn't gone BOOM yet.

Get a new PSU, like this Antec Earthwatts 650 and your PC would be fine.

I've just applied to return the Motherboard ,cause I think the motherboard is the problem .... can someone help me what to do.

you might have fried it because your tried to turn your pc on with a 400w PSU

.............it's...i'M..A........ I don't know,.

so the frequency wich the motherboard supports RAMS is not the problem for sure?

 

[itsbighead]

yes, all new motherboards 1366, 1155 and 1156 Motherboards would support up to 32GB DDR3-1333/1600 without any problems so it was your PSU that screwed your PC up

 

[TipToe]

I don't think is screwed already,I mean i think if i'll buy a new PSU it will work right?

 

[itsbighead]

hmm you could try but dont get your hopes up?
