PC fails to start when the graphics card is connected
I've just assembled a nearly brand-new PC with these specifications:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X
GPU cooler: Cooler Master 212 spectrum v3
Motherboard: ASRock B650M PG Lightning WiFi (bios version 3.06)
RAM: Silicon Power Value Gaming DDR5 32GB
Storage: Patriot Memory P400 Lite M.2 PCIe Gen 4 x4 2TB SSD
Hard Drive: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1 TB 3.5" 7200 RPM Internal Drive
GPU: ASUS dual gforce rtx 4070 super
Power supply: Corsair RM750 750 w 80+ Gold (~2 years old)
Case: Deepcool TESSERACT BF ATX Mid Tower
Operating System: Windows 11
Display: ASUS VS228
The only components that stayed are the power supply, case, and monitor.
As long as the GPU is installed it won’t boot, but it does work with no GPU or an older NVIDIA 1070.
I suspect the power supply might be the issue since it’s the oldest part besides the temporary GPU.
I’d appreciate another opinion before purchasing a new one, especially to confirm it can handle the workload.

what components were transferred from an older setup?
Moved the thread from the Systems section to the Graphics cards section.
If the graphics card output shows a black screen or unusual display while using it, start by verifying if the LED light at the power supply cable connection remains continuously red.
By curiosity, how were you plugging it? I mean, there's only one connector on the card, how is it possible to use "a wrong cable"?
