I updated my GPU to a newer model and immediately faced booting issues. I initially believed it was due to the MOBO 24pin power cable, but now suspect something else is at play. My MOBO’s backplate seems to be drawing power when pressed against the motherboard. Additionally, I’ve been encountering overcurrent errors frequently. I’m running out of ideas and would really appreciate any advice from someone more experienced. Thank you in advance!

My MOBO’s backplate is causing power issues when pressed against the motherboard. I’ve also been experiencing overcurrent errors for a while.
It might be that your system is getting shorted—try breadboarding the setup to check if the problem continues.
