Sorry I can't help because I still haven't finished up my new computer build yet. There should be others who will probably respond to your request though.

I installed a Nvidia GEForce but the box said it needed a 500 watt power supply. Rather than risk it, I replaced the power supply also. Adds another $60 to the expense. But, it's working.

Check to make sure the board is in a compatible slot, try a different slot and make sure the card is all the way seated in the slot. Did you change anything else? Are you using the same monitor or a new one? Try powering up in safe mode. If none of this works then the card may be bad, try returning it for a replacement. FYI: My card worked right out of the box.

you should have min 350 watts ps, the total power draw is 65watts. anything less your taking a chance with you system crashing or worse also PCI-E power connector is is used for more info go to http://www.evga.com/support/manuals/files/EVGA_Manual_EN.pdf this the manual and may give a better ideal

Sorry for the basic question but did you plug in the molex power? It will not work correctly without additional power. If you have another pcie slot to try then do that. Mine is okay

My bet is still a power issue. While it came with the upgraded power supply I'll bet they also added upgraded the video card. When I ordered mine I also ordered a 700w power supply.

Per the EVGA website you need a "Minimum of a 350 Watt power supply".You didn't mention what type and model PC you have. If it is an HP they come terribly under-powered. I would upgrade your power supply. Do not try and use that card with anything less than a 350 watt power supply. I'd get a bare minimum of a 450W power supply.

sorry it took so long to get back, just make sure u got all the connectors plugged in and have a good power supply. try to test the power connectors if there not a name brand on something u know that works to rule out a fault power connector

Yes, i have a 500+ power supply inside this puppy as we speak. It was extremely tricky and seemed impossible for me to get my power supply in so i like ziptied it and that caused it to bluescreen, you need to make sure you get it in correctly and screw it in properly, though i didnt know how until i had a repair guy check it out.

Check connection types and motherboard type. If you can't figure those things out. I probably wouldn't by. But I will tell you this is the best power supply I have ever owned. I have built over 10 machines for myself.

I am actually using a 300w PSU and everything works just fine for the past week (i7-4770, 8G ram, two HDs). But don't try to take my word and keep a 300w psu for long bc it's supposed to be dangerous to your equipment. I've ordered a 500W PSU and will replace as soon as it arrives.

I'm not quite sure how you would go about doing that but I would say check your CPU and GPU temperatures while under stress first and make sure nothing's overheating. As far as PSU failures go you should rule out everything else first. A defect in the PSU is always possible but unless it's really old I would say chances are very slim.

Technically, it should be higher, but it may still work well. There was some sort of incompatibilty between my card and PC (wasn't able to determine the cause), so I traded with a friend. He's now running it on a higher-end medium performance pc with only a 350w psu and it's working perfectly for him. Granted, he only buys high quality brand psu.

I've got two EVGA GTX 760's and they "should" light up but they dint for me. They are supposed to though. Sorry I can't help more.

DavidLJ48- do you have the 780i motherboard also? If you do then you shouldn't have any problems running the cpu. Have You tried upgrading your bios before you upgrade the cpu?

Your card should have a fan on it already. If that is not enough just turn the computer off and let it cool down. Check with the specs on your computer. You can only upgrade so far. I wanted a stronger one myself but EVGA has not made an upgrade for my computer for some time now. But shop around you may find one that I have not seen yet. Let me know if you do. I may just upgrade to a new computer with a dual or triple slot graphics card. Hope this helps you out some.
