   I'm gonna try that too and podt the results here, but right now I am using my friends motherboard and it's working perfectly with the same PSU. Will try to get one and try soon.

	Try a different PSU, preferably one with a single 12v rail. I didn't even notice that you are using a BeQuiet low wattage unit (sub 700w). That thing is only 500w and splits that 500w over more than one rail which means the GPU is probably not getting enough power from that single 8 pin. It literally can only provide 18a per rail which means it basically can only provide 200w per rail. Not good enough for a 1070. The board with the 8pin power is likely as you suspected providing a bit more power through the PCIe slot but the single 8pin on the GPU should be enough to run the card if it's getting enough amps and the board is providing it's required 75w (which is the spec so it should be).

	To clarify, my RX 570 needed an 8 Pin and a 6 PIN to power it. My GTX 1070 only needs one 8 PIN for external power even tho it has a higher TDP, maybe ot relies on the PCIe slot for most of its power draw.

	The only noticable diffrence between the two motherboards is that mine has only a 4 pin connector while my friend's has 8 pins. Maybe the power delivery on the DGS is capped at 75W while the GPU needs more? This is the only plausible reason I can come up with.

	Yes I did that too. I have no idea why it isn't working. I traded my motherboard with my friends and it worked just fine.

	Have you tried taking the motherboard out of the case and try the 1070 and see if you get a display?

	I tried DP and HDMI, I don't have a DVI cable, so I might get one soon to try. But my PC just doesn't POST which doesn't happen with any other GPU. It's like the GPU doesn't get recognised.

	Have you tried different display outputs? If you have tried HDMI then try DP or DVI.

	Yes my RX 570 still works too. I made sure to push it in until I heard a click but with no success.
