Hello. I assembled my initial PC today using these details: Gigabyte X870 Gaming Wifi6 ASUS DUAL OC AMD RADEON RX 7800 XT VENGEANCE DDR5 (2x16) 6400MHz in slot DDR5_A2 / DDR5_B2 AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D Crucial P310 1T (PCIe Gen4 NVMe 2280 M.2 SSD ARCTIC LIQUID FREEZER 3 240 Black MSI MAG A750GL PCIE5 750W) Fractal Pop air case Bios Ver: F5b My issue is that the GPU won't stay on. Once I power on the PC, the DRAM light appears and all fans begin spinning including the GPU. After the DRAM light turns off, the GPU fans shut down and the VGA light illuminates the screen. It's connected to the GPU and it boots. I already installed Windows 10 because the Windows 11 powered-off GPU version isn't available. When I open BIOS, it recognizes the CPU, RAM, and SSD. Under the Peripherals window in M2A it shows CT1000P310SSD8 and under PCIEX16 it lists PCIe 4.0 x 16 @ 4.0 x 16. I've tried resetting the GPU, power connectors, and RAM as well. I'm running out of ideas. Please help me.

Consider using another PCIe port on your motherboard

You're right, it might be challenging to test with only one slot. Let me know if you'd like help finding alternatives or checking compatibility!

The motherboard likely has additional PCIe ports, so you may need to remove it from the case. A photo of your motherboard would be helpful.

I located the remaining two openings (I wasn't aware they existed). I tried both and got the same outcome.
