Hi guys,
I just recently rma-ed my mobo, havent tested anything yet, yesterday I got a 17inch CRT and set up the whole comp. Everything worked perfectly but today, when I turn on the system, the GPU's fan cranks up to 100% and there is nothing on the crt.

Things I've tried
Clearing Cmos
Removing BIOS battery
changing pci slots for the gpu
removing everything and just leaving 1gb RAM, 1 GPU.

Sometimes when I remove all the sataports (1ssd, 1 wdblack and 1 cd-drive), the comp boots and asks me to insert a drive. Sometimes it doesnt even boot. Once or twice, with the ssd plugged in, all sticks of rams, I've managed to entered windows, but when I restart, the same thing happens.

Even when there is no video, I can still feel the hard drive spin. The sound card lights up.

Please help me guys.

Are the 6-pin plugs connected?

Thanks for the reply, I've plugged it in, and also unplug and replug, change pci slots etc.

I just realised that if I turn of the system and dont turn it on for sometime, roughly 20 minutes or so? I can turn on the system for awhile before the thing blacks out and the same thing happens.

it might be your psu, but i highly doubt it because 750w should be more than enough, do you have a different psu you can try?

Erm nope, actually I dont have any spare parts. The comp turned on for about 45 minutes without the 6pins pluged in to the graphics card, but den black out again.

Do you guys think the card is dying or the psu or even the mobo?
