    GPU HELP!!

    I just got a new GTX 465 I installed it into my number one gpu slot. I put my old GTX 280 in the number 2. Powered up installed new drivers for the GTX 465 but windows does not see the GTX 280. I checked all power connections they are hooked up but the fan on the card is not turning.

    Anybody have any suggestions for me? I was going to crunch with both cards untill I sell the gtx 280 and replaced it with another gtx 465.

    What MB do you have? Doe's GPU-Z show just the one card? Have you tried uninstalling the drivers, running Driver sweeper and reinstalling them?

    Make sure that you have actually extended the desktop onto that GPU. That's the number one culprit. What is the OS?

    From what Max has told me, Nvidia cards dont need dummy plugs.

    yeah the fan should be turning whether windows recognizes the card or not. Bad slot possibly?
