System powers up fine with on board video. I connect it to my x16 slot in my z87m-plus mobo and my pc won't even power on. It has nothing to do with bios because I am not getting power. Once I remove card system works fine. I have 8 pin and 6pin pcie power connected to it as per instruction manual. Faulty card?

according to EVGA the GTX760 needs 170W. SO....  ( Power = Volt * current <=> Power =  12volts * 14amps = 168W)
 
So by the numbers you need at least 14,5 Amp Per each 12V rail ( if you PSU is multi Rail) but that is cutting it to close...   15Amps per sure with no doubt
 
(if your PSU is common-rail you need at least 30amps on the 12 V rail according to EVGA)
 
PER example my psu has an output of 56Amps but as it is multi-rail it outputs 18Amps on each of the four 12V rails witch gives me 216W (or little less given my psu is 6 years old) - BUT still more then enough for a GTX760 that needs 170W.
 
But as bcavnaugh said you should tell us all your system specs.

That PSU has enough amps, providing you are spreading equally across the two rails. Although with the watts you are cutting it close.

Requirements
Minimum of a 500 Watt power supply.                        
(Minimum recommended power supply with +12 Volt current rating of 30 Amps.)                        
                An available 6-pin PCI-E power connector and an available 8-pin PCI-E power connector                        
                Total Power Draw : 170 Watts
 
You need Both, Don't Run Without Both Connected.

I assume that a 6+2 pcie plug works fine for the 8? I went and bought a new cable since I do not trust the one that came with mobo since it did not work to begin with although it could be other problems. I'm going to refer to the manual, and make sure the power is split amongst rails as instructed. Hoping to have this resolved by the end of the weekend, if so I will make sure to post that it is solved. If not I will see if best buy will swap cards for me or go straight through EVGA since I know they are good with rma's.

Thanks for all the prompt input and responses it is wonderful to know what a strong helpful community there is here. Battlefield 4 looks decent with my on board, I'd say ps3/xbox 360 quality. I can't wait to have it look better than a ps4 and have max setting! Have a good weekend and happy gaming!

Just wait until you get the Dedicated Graphics running :-D  


Solved!

Faulty pci-e cord was shorting it out. Seasonic makes Corsair so the PSU is fine, quality matters a lot in my opinion especially if it is close. Haswell chip and the rest of my system dont use much i bet there is juice to spare...in regards to rails i found out it can be misleading, mine says 2 rails on box but after researching it, it is only 1("sumulated" 2 rail, fine with me")

And as you say it looks amazing with dedicated graphics, image quality is much better but the biggest thing for playability is how smooth it is! I am only running a 2gb gx 760 and it runs on max everything for settings in battlefield 4!

I am very happy with this card and my i7 4770k! I had planned on upgrading to a $500+ card after several months but with the performance of this one I think I'll keep it for some time! Funny how what is considered a middle of the road or entry level gpu to gamer friends blows almost every PC out of the water.

Glad you have it figured out..  Maybe I will shoot you by accident on BF4...  O.o  LOL!  Have fun.
