Power supply is 600w. Yes, I plugged the power supply into the card. The GPU is actually the 2Gb version with a 6 pin. The 4Gb version has the 8 pin.
I have been trying to activate the m/b without the GPU, using the CPU to drive the rear port HDMI which was working before I started messing around. That too is dead. I am now thinking of replacing the B250M board with my old legacy board and forgetting all about the new GPU. That board of course will be Windows 10. When I can afford a later board, I will test the GPU on the legacy board before I install the later board and hope it will go OK.
