Hi guys.

So I've just fitted my block to a 1070 GTX. Everything went smooth and really well. Just come to try it and nonsignal so I've trouble shooted etc.

Put the original fans back on and now it just looks dead. Even the GTX light doesn't come on. Any ideas?

Cheers.

Try removing the cmos battery for 10mins and put it back in and see if that helps. Different PCI slot, try in another PC,.

If none of that helps then it spunds like you may have passed on a static charge to the card while fitting the block. Examine the pcb closely and see if you have damaged parts.
 
Just checked that link. I will inspect everything tomorrow and see of I've damaged anything. Guess an RMA may be needed. Exact reason I went EVGA. So I'm lucky from that aspect.

Always something :(
 
It depends if you've physically damaged anything or not, if you managed to knock a component off the board then they could deny the Rma if they inspect the card closely enough or they might just give it a quick visual inspection then test it and issue a replacement. Fingers crossed for you.
