Hello, I hope someone can help me out
This is my story
PNY nVidia 6800 GT
(No OC, drivers updated)
One day I tried a cheap 450 W PSU and made a stress test in Counter Strike Source but suddenly puf!! the PSU went to another life. Inmediately I changed it back to my old 350W and everything was OK. Hours later my monitor went black, I rebooted and hours later the same story.
I moved the vcard to 3 different PCs to see if it was a bad configuration in my sistem or a HardWare issue that causes this, but I had the same problem on those different PCs.
I dont have video signal on the VGA neither on DVI.
The PC boots, I can hear the start up windows sound. The fan is on, but I NEVER get video signal.
Now I have to use my old video card...
Is there anything to do before I ask for my RMA?

if it doesn't work in 3 systems, then its more than likely the card is dead.

Maybe try the DVI port on the card. When ever I use the blue colored on on my Ti4200 I get a black screen. I use the DVI one and it works fine.
