Black screen after chaning video cards - Page 2

hmmm... 2 power connectors? Wow. You probably need a more powerful PSU, maybe a 850 watt PSU. If you don't feel like buying a new PSU or trying a different one, there's other solutions. Give me some time to figure this out. My friend had this same problem and I was able to fix it but I forgot how. Give me some time.

No. That's just a circuit chip.

From the information you've provided, it sounds like your GC (Graphics Card) is in-operable. Since the others work and not this one, I think we've ruled it down to the one problem: the new GC.
