Hi.
I was playing gta 5 about a week ago on my old pc build when my computer suddenly shuts off and wouldnt turn back on. I thought my psu killed my pc and I bought my new pc build which I was planning on for some time. I bought every component except graphics card and hd's. I didnt buy a graphics card since I had 1 year old gtx 970. With the graphics card installed in my new pc build I had the same problem. The pc wouldnt turn on. When I took out my graphics card the pc would turn on and booted. I went to get my old gtx 570 and the new pc was working perfectly. I tried my 570 in my old pc build which I thought was dead and the pc worked perfectly.
What happend to my graphics card?
The temps were normal and had a low gpu usage when this happend. I've never had a problem with this card.
I should mention both the new and the old pc starts with the graphics
card connected to the PCIe slot but both wont turn on the power when I connect the PCIe power cables to the card. The fans start on the card if I dont connect the power cables.
The psu in my old pc is a seasonic 750W 80+ gold.
Why did my gtx 970 die and why?
I bought a new gtx 980 ti for the new pc build. I just want to know why and how it died.
