Hello everyone, my GPU has stopped functioning and won’t power on after I removed the SSD card. This is clear from the fact that the fans don’t spin up on the GPU and the error code beep when I turn it on indicates there’s an issue with the GPU itself. I’ve taken out the SSD I installed and reset the GPU several times, but the same problem persists. There’s no visible damage on the card or in the connector where it’s plugged in. What should I do to resolve this or what could be causing it?

Did you connect the additional power connectors inside the card? I usually overlook them until the device fails to turn on.

I hadn’t unplugged the GPU
only removed it from the motherboard slot and didn’t disconnect it from the PSU either, since it has some slack
