I have a rather old mainboard with a i7 2600k and 32GB Ram. Currently I am using a AMD 7970.
After installing a new RX480, the computer won't boot anymore, I don't get a video signal on any of the 3 DP / 1 HDMI ports, even the BIOS won't show, but no beeping error codes. The GPU fan starts spinning however. Putting my 7970 back in, everything works.
So do I just have a faulty RX480, or does anyone know of incompatiblities with certain mainboards? I've read about the fact that the RX480 uses too much power of PCIe, but that shouldn't keep the PC from starting?
