Check power and make sure everything is plugged in correctly. Also try to troubleshoot by taking out all components one by one to try to narrow down the issue.

Reinstalling the original CPU and see if the system comes to life would be a good troubleshooting step. I know IBM/Lenovo have played nasty whitelist games with peripherals in the past (including memory), so CPUs wouldn't surprise me either.

I don't hope so, I bought the computer as a server witch im now upgrading so it can hopefully handle more than half an app

The FX-6350 is about 18 months newer than the FX-4100. What is the motherboard make and model, and have you updated the BIOS? Fixing this might be as simple as updating the BIOS.

Huh. No idea why?

Not to be a downer but... my experience is that problems that go away for no reason will come back for no reason.

To add to others' suggestions, make sure that the power supply can support the added consumption requirements. Remember that in all standard operations, boot draws are among the highest. If your power supply can't handle the boot draw, it just won't boot, even if it can more than handle other operations.

Check the power specs for the new card and the old card. Are the the same, if so, that's not the issue. If not, does the new card fall within the limits of the old card. It's hard to know for sure, as you didn't build the machine from parts, so you may need to spec out every part, sum the boot consumption, and compare with the PS spec. Or, you could just upgrade the PS, like I did, and hope that that was the issue (I was wrong, my issue was a bad RAM module).

Edit: some BIOS builds keep error logs. If you could access those logs, it could be insightful. Maybe you could boot with the new card, wait for it to fail, then install the old one, boot again and check the BIOS logs. I'm not sure if the logs would survive that power loss though, but it's worth a shot.

It doesn't even boot to fail, it just doesn't do anything, not a sound and not even a light

That's a tough one. Used to be NewEgg, but they've gone to garbage in the past several years. eBay or Amazon maybe?
