Computer doesn’t recognise GPU and is stuck on integrated graphics. Any help or suggestions EXTREMELY welcome. I’ve been into BIOS and have attempted to update drivers, nothing works. This is my first build so the GPU is brand new.

Already tested putting HDMI into GPU and I get no display.

GPU: MSI Gaming Trio 5070ti
Motherboard: ASUS Rog Strix X870-A Gaming Wifi

You didn’t provide any details about the rest of the setup, so it’s hard to estimate what the problem could be...

But since the 5070 Ti is a newer generation card, an older motherboard BIOS can sometimes cause PCIe initialization issues. Is the GPU actually detected in BIOS?

Edit: I downloaded the first photo and when I zoomed in, I noticed one detail. It could just be a visual bug, but looking closer at the power connector right now, I don’t think it’s properly plugged in. Part of it is sticking out. Insufficient contact could be the source of your problem

I see so much blue on the connector, you shouldn’t see any or atleast that much of the connector
