Hi Omnious thanks for trying help. yea check all that. Yes AMD is PCIe 3.0. After RMA My original EVGA Geforce RTX 3070 Ti FTW3 Ultra and send it in to EVGA. NEW GPU I received giving me same D6 Code. Really and yes different serial number I already check it out make sure same one was not sent by mistake. What is this out the frying pan than into fire again. What the heck EVGA. I made sure I set everything just right and HDMI cable is new and none that cheap crap eighter.
I have interesting experience with the D6 error code
The I discovered how much easier things can be with a little patience... :)
I have a Z690 Dark sitting in a box because of D6 error code.
I decided to reconfigure my fans after getting a thermalright contact frame and made multiple mistakes which led to no display output
I was impatient and stupid by rushing to get it all put together so I could get back into the game on my only night off while working a lot of overtime
Put it back together and power on to error code-D6 (no input device/no display output device) \
I could tell the CPU and RAM were fine because windows booted after D6 post code and and was running as normal
I could tell because the RGB and AIO LCD display would be turn on after ICUE started with my saved profiles
I know I over-tightened the contact frame screws
I also dropped a 3070 ti FTW3 on the PCI slots while having to wiggle it out because I didn't use the included PCIe release tool. Gosh I should have just played my game
I literally used a drill with 1 good-enough sized bit for 80% of screwing. I could have flaked metal into a slot or socket so easily
I either concluded I either broke the 1700 Socket, the PCB traces, my RTX 3070 ti FTW3 or all three
I bought a cheap Geforce GT 710 which is PCIe 3.0 and it worked, but after being on for a half hour or so, restarting would cause D6. leave it alone a few hours it would not D6
Had to be something related PCIe 3.0 and less lanes or being a SFF GPU and seating differently...
This made me think what was wrong was primarily motherboard related
I was very busy with work so I put the Z690 Dark in its box to forget about until...
A week later, EVGA started their winter sale with the Z690 DKP 50% off. I was so happy to get another for a price I could somewhat reason. THANK YOU, EVGA!
When new Z690 DKP arrived, I swapped HW to the new Z690 Dark and everything worked
Z690 DKP is an amazing board
I've been doing my research and want to see if I can fix it but I don't want to use my working rig's CPU
I should just get a 13900K so I can have a LGA 1700 CPU to troubleshoot
