so i have had a issue with my PC #1 and think its my GPU, this PC was made back in 2019 and has done a great job and still works until I believe I damaged the GPU while cleaning. so I decided to grab the GPU from my PC#2, made 1 week ago with all new parts. i opened a ticket on this forum about how to swap the GPU and was told to download DDU and I went through a tutorial to uninstall my PC#1 GPU drivers. it uninstalled all and then shut down like normal,
I then turned the PC off and swapped out the GPUs, I was met with a white VGA warning on my motherboard, the PC turned on but there was no display. I tried unplugging, and replugging, cleaning the PCI port and everything and still the same issue. However, once I put back my old GPU in it, it works fine.
So I was wondering why my PC is rejecting my new GPU?
PC#1
Ryzen 5 3600 AM4
gigabyte 2070 8gb oc
Asus ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING
3 fan AIO from TT
500GB SSD
4TB HDD
16GB ram 3200mhz g.skill
PC#2
AMD Ryzen 5 7600 AM5 3.8 GHz
Gigabyte Geforce RTX 4060 AERO OC 8GB
NZXT C Series 750W 80+ Gold

is there a possibility that my new GPU is formatted to AM5 and won't work on AM4? or is there another possible compatibility issue?
