Hi all, I recently had to sell my 970 due to a financial bind, and so I'm trying to go back to using my GTX 580 3GB. However, the fan on that card died, and so I have an aftermarket cooler on it, and it has a backplate, so I can't use it in my first PCI slot, due to the backplate hitting my cpu cooler.
However, I can't put the card into any of the other PCI slots, because I just get no signal, nothing. I've checked the jumpers, tried turning them all off except for the slot I was using, tried turning them all on, tried using the extra power connectors on the board, but I still can't seem to get it to work. Anyone happen to have some advice on how I can get my 580 to work in my other PCI slots?
Thanks. :)
