I assembled my initial PC with all components except the graphics card. The specifications include an i7 13700k, 750W PSU, 32Gb DDR5 RAM, ASUS z690 motherboard, Wi-Fi 3070 Ti, and a graphics card from JAWA. The system operates smoothly without the graphics card, though integrated graphics perform poorly for gaming. No major issues have arisen. When connecting the display to the graphics card, it functions without drivers. Updating the driver caused the computer to fail to boot into Windows. After flashing the BIOS on the card, the same problem occurred—no boot beyond BIOS, frequent crashes, and restarts. The returned graphics card claims it works perfectly.

Could the PSU be faulty? It appears to exceed its rated capacity, possibly supplying only around 300W before failure. Have others experienced similar problems? What steps should I follow to test the PSU’s condition or decide whether to replace the GPU?

Did the wires arrive properly? I combined them with the PSU cables, but they didn’t function. I used the 600W GPU direct cable straight from the PSU instead. The GPU started working fine then.

The PSU model isn't specified, but I can help you check its details. Regarding the seller, it's best to verify their reputation through reviews or contact information before proceeding.

I removed the GPU and repositioned it numerous times; I even replaced the thermal paste assuming it was overheating. If the issue stemmed from the power supply unit, it might have been an internal problem.

I found this item at Best Buy in new condition. It might have been helpful to specify the model, otherwise I assumed it was a Corsair product.

Recommended approach is to test your GPU on another machine to confirm proper operation. From a quick look, it seems your PSU might not provide enough power for the 13700k and 3070ti, though this shouldn't be a major problem unless you run both under heavy use. Expect the system to boot into Windows at least. Clearing drivers with DDU and reinstalling could assist, but running a live Linux USB stick would likely give more accurate results. Good luck!
