[SOLVED] Need Help With Pc

[littleblock2004]

i recently got a xeon e3-1230 v5 mid tower server that has a 290w PSU i also got a evga gtx 750 ti.tho it is reccommened to have a 300w PSU.i saw people online running it on PSUS with less then 290w.when i plug in the gpu the pc starts up but the fans start spinning really fast and nothing shows up in the display.i tried this twice and only let it run for 15-20 sec cuz im not rly geeky in pcs and was scared by how fast the fans were spinning.should i keep it running,or is this a bad sign?and i should consider buying a PSU.also there was a flashing yellow light both times after i powered it down.

You might be able to adjust the fans speeds in the BIOS. I would look into that AFTER getting a GPU to work. Otherwise, it is not really worth the effort.

just a curiousity but would a rx 550 that uses 50w be gud too?.i rly want a software that can capture my game highlights.

The RX 5XX GPUs really need to be in a UEFI based system. I don't see one of those playing well with your T130. You can certainly try and see.

very late update but i managed to get everything working the pc was not detecting the gpu as a video controller so when i plugged in the vga to the port in the motherboard i got a display and then i booted up into windows and installed nvidia drivers and everything worked great!
