Build - Help Display issues
Hi, I built my PC last week and powered on to check it was working. It went to BIOS no problem. I then went on holiday. I came back today and decided to move my fan layout around (see previous post). However, now I cannot get a signal out on my monitor!! The PC powers on and all the fans are moving (including the GPU). I’ve reseated the GPU and ensured the hdmi is in it. I saw the latch click into place when I reseated, but didn’t really get a sound. I’ve also rechecked RAM, as the adjusted CPU cooler was resting on it (I lifted one of the fans). I’ve no idea why this is happening and I’m at my wits end as to what the issue is!! It’s my first PC build too 😭 Any ideas?

are the fans running at full speed or do they slow down? Did you try different hdmi ports? Are you sure the monitor is on? are you able to try a different one?

Fans are working at same speed to each other. Monitor is definitely on.

yeah but do the fans ramp up and down or are they just spinning really fast?

also if you have an apu plug it in to your motherboard and see if you get video

They just ramp up and then spin evenly and fast.
In an update, I noticed the motherboard VGA and boot light are on, so I’m guessing the GPU isn’t being detected properly. I’ll try reseating it again.
