Hi guys.

My gpu ( GTX 1050 ) shows no signal, but when I plug the cable into the onboard graphics port it works, even when the gpu is inserted in the pci express slot.

I reseated it multiple times. The fans are spinning. I tested it in another machine and it works great. I even tried a RX 580 in my setup and it works first time. Tried all the different ports on the card. Tried going into the motherboard (ecs h61h2-m3) settings and changing onboard vga settings, and it pops back to auto everytime I switch it to pci express. I did a cmos reset and removed the battery.

Anyone got any advise? Can it be that it doesn't send enough power to the pci express slot?

I also haven't tried updating the bios...
