My current specs are as follows:
Amdfx6100-6 core processor-OC to 3.7ghz
Nvidia gt640
Cooler master 460 watt psu
Gigabyte GA-78lmt-S2 motherboard
16gb ddr3 ram @ 1600Mhz
Windows 10 64 bit
My issue is that my pc fails to boot only when I insert a gtx 1050ti into the pcie slot. The gt640 does not cause this issue, but due to how poorly it performs I desired a significant upgrade. Given the model of my motherboard, I was told that the BIOS was incompatable with more modern gpus but was told by a different source that it should have been a non issue. I am okay with having to settle for less than a 1050ti
Ultimately, is the psu faulted? (Nearly 4 years old) is the gpu DOA? Or do I need a new mobo altogether? The card does not require a power connector as it draws all power soley from the slot. Thanks so much.
