Hey there, so long story short, I got myself a second hand PC that was rocking a 980TI. Components: 7 2700x, b450 MSI, 16gb hyperx ram 3333. I got it without the GPU though, and to make matters spicier, I bought myself an EVGA 1080 at a London Auction house for 120 quid. Although it's a respectable AH, they couldn't guarantee it worked.
So now, when I instal the new GPU in the PC, the red VGA led turns red and stays that way and I get no signal and no gpu fans spinning, like I see many people do around here.
First guess is that it might be BIOS related, but without having a spare GPU, or the old one, how am I suppose to update it? Also, how am I suppose to figure out if the GPU is done with without trying it in a new pc?
I tried most of the things people recommended here, but can't do much if I can't even get into Bios.
Thanks!
