My main graphic card is the 1050 TI, but my friend gave me a MSI 1070 Gaming x 8GB that doesnt work. he used it for a short time then it broke. so he gave me it and if i can fix it i can keep.

I did some troubleshoot but didn't came far. when i put the 1070 in and start the computer it gives 3 beeps and then won't boot and just stays on. the 1070 gets warmer overtime and the LEDs work if i keep the system running but more wont happen. i tried putting a VGA and then a HDMI in my motherboard but nothing comes on screen.

So I'm asking here if you guys maybe know a fix. or if you need more information please let me know.

You can't fix it if you cannot see any visual indications of the problem -- any defects on the PCIe pins or PCIe power connectors, broken connections on the face of the card, burned looking areas? I would not be running that in anything other than one of my old test bed motherboards, as not to damage your gear.
