I too bought it from Banggood and its running fanstastic as of now. Why don't you try it on some other laptop? Preferably a Dell one? It worked on my Dell N4050, Sandybridge fine and even on my fathers Dell 17R with Haswell i7 fine. So, try on a Dell laptop if you can.

About @haniabaya's case, I don't think its the PSU. I'm running a 560ti on CM 460W with 312W on dual 12V (18A each) and everything is running fine. On @haniabaya's earlier PSU its provides 336W on dual 12V rails, which way above than 970 will ever consume. Its either his laptop or faulty EXP GDC supposing that 970 is fault free.

It means its working (Its getting the power). All in order.

Everything is working kind of fine for me. Dell N4050, 2nd gen i3, Sandy bridge, 560Ti. First it was not working for me because I have been connecting the wrong 4 pin to the EXP GDC. I was the connecting the 4 pin in the (20+4) pin. When I realized I'm an idiot and connected the other 4 pin it booted fine and started working. But, still the PSU is a cheap 450 watts with 20A on 12V, which means it should provide 240 watt on 12v. But, PC is shutting off the instant I load furmark, which means card is consuming much more than 240 watts at peak. Thanks for the help everyone and I should try to get a proper PSU with 30amps+ on 12V, not DA2 or any cheap one. - - - Updated - - - Atleast I can play low intensive games smooth without PC shutting off.

Sorry for asking a lot of questions about power supply. Do you think a Dell DA2 can handle 560Ti? I have seen people running 960 fine (though its new architecture consumes less power I think).

Also, one more thing about power consumption. Mine is a MSI TWIN FOZR 560ti. According to reviews, it uses only 222W maximum (Which is still higher than what that cheap PSU can provide). https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/MSI/GTX_560_Twin_Frozr_II/21.html

Thanks for the reply, Helped me out a lot. So will probably wait to buy a better PSU. But, wanted to say that Nvidia says 560Ti consumes only 170 watts maximum. GeForce GTX 560 Ti | Specifications | GeForce I accidently blew my CM500 watts yesterday by setting it to 115V in a 220V country. Have some budget problem, thats why I asked about going for cheap PSUs.

Need help. A total noobie. Bought EXP GDC from banggood to use with a GTX 560Ti. The doubt is about power. How should I connect power to the GPU? Should I connect it directly from the PSU or connect the psu to the EXP GDC and use the cable which is included to connect from EXP GDC to GPU? Also, if the second way is possible, Can I use cheap PSUs like this then?
