I'm building my wife a "new" pc using some of my old parts, all of which I know work. TheGPU I'm using is my old GTX 980 ti, which has a 6-pin and 8-pin power connector. Problem is when I plug in the pcie power 8pin into the GPU the PC won't boot. If I only plug in the 6pin the PC will boot just fine.
I have tried just the 8pin without the 6pin and still will not boot. All parts I know work and the PSU is brand new. I've tried resetting CMOS, reseating the gpu and the other PCI slot. Could it be something related to bios or chipset since I'm using a preexisting ssd with windows already installed on it? Any ideas?
