Dell Optiplex 7050 Mid Tower wont work with xfx rx6400 low profile (53w)

Hey, i just got an optiplex 7050 (i7 7700, 16 gb ram, NVME boot drive, 240w psu) and rx6400. It works normally with integrated and no gpu installed. However, when i turn it on (gpu installed), it stops very early in boot sequence, by flashing the dell logo and quickly the display dissapears but the computer remains on. I have looked at the forums and disabled secure boot and enabled legacy boot roms, etc.

Does anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks

I think you should consider the card defective and return it for a replacement.  it does not pass quality exam.

this card has some issue.  try test it in another desktop pc that has a high power psu.

also try clear cmos and replace cmos battery w a new one.

XFX 6400 is validated in 7050

@redxps630​ Thanks!

those problems have all stopped after testing, but i keep having a problem where if i restart or shutdown, even under the same circumstances, it will sometimes just not boot and hang on the dell logo, or  give no display. But other times, it works perfectly. What should i do?  If you dont have an answer, its fine because its very specific.

thanks
