Brand new GPU code 43

I just bought a brand new XFX Radeon 6750 XT. After recieiving it and install I quickly ran into a code 43 error. I tried everything I could find until I ultimately replaced it for another one thinking it was a hardware issue. I have spent over two days trying to get the replacement graphics card to work. I have tried everything that I can find and nothing seems to fix the issue. I have used DDU. I have updated the BIOS on my GPU as well as MoBo. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling drivers multiple times different ways. I have tried unplugging it and plugging it back in. I've tried taking RAM sticks out. I've unplugged USB and RGB things as well in case it was a power issue. The GPU has power (as in the fans spin and it runs) but no display for HDMI and gives me a Code 43 after reboot. Every. Single. Time. I'm open to any other suggestions to try and get this to work properly.

PC specs:
MSI Z390 MPG
I7 9700k
64 GB RAM
850W PSU
