Hello!
After recently putting together a computer it just wont pick up the damn card!
the card itself is powered by a 6 pin and a 8 pin which is connected to the psu and the card is active (spinning) when the Cpu is on

Cpu  - i7 2600k
Gpu - Asus 6950 1Gb direct cu
Psu - Ocz 700w Modular
Ram - 4gb 1333mhz kingston

This board does support Intergrated graphics though when looking through the bios the Default graphic adapter is set to PEG
there is also a 4 pin connector on the board which is for powering the on board graphics (not in use)

:think: Double check the power connections to the VGA & mainboard. VGA auxilliary mainboard connector is a 6 pin. If the PSU doesn't have enough PCI-E 6 pin cables, use molex to PCI-E adapter. CPU power is ATX/EPS 4+4 or 8 pin. BIOS setting 'PEG' is correct when using a discrete card & it's cabled to your monitor.
