Hi People,

I have the following spec:

Asus P8P67-M PRO Intel P67 (Socket 1155) DDR3 MicroATX Motherboard ** B3 REVISION **

Corsair XMS3 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit (CMX8GX3M2A1600C9

PC Power and Cooling Silencer 910W Power Supply

Intel Core i7-2600K 3.40GHz (Sandybridge) Socket LGA1155

Asus VG236HE 23" TRUE 120Hz 3D Widescreen LCD Monitor - Black

OcUK GeForce GTX 580 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card

So was planning a new build for a while but before I bought everything new, I thought I would get the graphics card and check out the performance on the existing rig. So I recently took delivery of a :

KFA2 GeForce GTX 980Ti "Hall of Fame 8Pack Approved Edition" 6144MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card

Trouble is, i cannot get it to display BIOS output via DVI or HDMI.
I have updated the MB drivers, have removed the CMOS battery, have chopped and changed the power connections (two 8 pins) and still nothing.
I have tried the extenders that are included and still nothing.
I have tried all PCI-E slots and still nothing.

The card lights up even without the power connections and all fans spin up but nothing.

There are no error codes on MB and no beeps that i can hear.

Replacing the original GTX580 it boots fine.

My thoughts are that its either knackered or that the power is insufficient but it only has the GTX980 and H10 cooler on it. No overclock on CPU or RAM.
Cant be power can it?

Anyone have suggestions as to the cause or have experience with a similar issue? Any thoughts on silly settings in the bios that could be causing it?

Suggestions welcome! :)

Thank you
 
No, nothing I can test on but I am tempted to proceed and purchase the rig i was going to originally. Was hoping someone may have some other ideas as I have too much work at the moment to mess about with it. :(

I agree, cant be dead.

Anyone have any suggestions for silly BIOS settings that may cause this? I tried the legacy/EFI one but no joy.
