Hi:

There is nothing wrong with your PSU.

The RX 570 will not work in your PC because the BIOS only goes up to v7.16.

You need a PC with a BIOS v8.xx or newer to run that model graphics card.

Basically, your PC is limited to a Nvidia GT(X) 6xx video card, or an AMD Radeon HD 6xxx video card.

Ok , tnx for you reply , i am really sorry to hear that , but  is there any way to do a custom bios for my motherboard ? 

[Paul_Tikkanen]

You're very welcome.

Unfortunately, there isn't.

Ok , thank you for everething , is it good idea to now use a gtx 960 2gb ?

[Paul_Tikkanen]

Anytime.

Glad to have been of assistance.

The  gtx 960 won't work either.

Nothing newer than a gtx 6xx model will work.

Actualy I tried it at a friend and it showed me a blue hp loading screen , i later saw on youtube a video on how to fix that , i can borrow it from a friend , worth a try , this is it from me il try to sell it or something , once again tnx for everything and bye until i reach my next problem !!!

[Paul_Tikkanen]

Good luck.

If I whant to use the rx 570 , will this mobo do the trick 

MSI H61M-P22-B3 ?

Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to help you with any modifications to the original configuration.

Also when you install a different motherboard, you will need to buy a new windows license which adds additional costs to the project.

You are better off buying a newer refurbished PC with an Intel 4th or 6th gen processor in which the video card should work just fine.
