Question for HDPLEX 300W Hi-Fi DC-ATX owners and/or NFC S4 mini owners

[jeht]

hi SFF community (& @josh #nfc),

Problem: PSU and MB lights up but my GPU spins up and then stops spinning. No video output via GPU.

I have assembled the following for my S4 mini build:

CPU: i5-4670S (65w)
GPU: EVGA GTX 1060 SC (06G-P4-6163-KR)
MB: Asrock Z97M-ITX/ac
RAM: 1x8GB DDR3
SSD x 2: 120GB Samsung 830; 128GB Samsung 840 pro
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-L9I
Power: HDPLEX 300w DC-DC PSU + DA330PM111
PCIE Riser: NFC Systems 16x PCIE Ribbon Cable

I confirm the components work when I power it using my current Corsair HX650 but the GPU doesn't work when I use the HDPLEX 300w. I confirm that the HDPLEX 300w (blue led on circuit board) and the MB works.

cheers!

Sounds like a faulty unit. Might wanna do a warranty claim with HDplex?

Edit: Ignore that lol I feel dumb

Hello, jeht.

With that particular motherboard you will need to switch the pcie mode to Gen 2 and it should work great.

Peace.
