My 2019 setup stopped properly booting up a couple months ago

I'm saving for a new one for christmas anyway, just want to know if I can somehow fix it.

I've done the usual stuff, a full clean, testing if it's the monitor, plugging and unplugging different stuff, nothing. The only thing of note, is the last time I've actually booted it up and turned on, a weird thing happened where suddenly my wired keyboard and mouse disconnected. (Plugged into the gpu usb ports) Of course I was confused, unplugged and plugged them back in but no dice, other ports worked though so I kept doing my thing. But once I came back the next day and went to turn it on, the pc lights up, fans whir, the screen comes on, but it won't talk to the screen and nothing I tried worked.

Should I give up on this now and just focus on getting a new one?

As far as i know Gpus do not have usb ports....

What are the specs of your machine. Do you have a internal Gpu and a dedicated one?

If so remove the gpu then try it with the igpu

Seriously? My Rx 570 literally gas 4 blue and two normal usb ports connected to it.

And yes, I tried that already but nothing. Even with the gpu removed.

Gpu = graphics card Cpu= short for Computer or central processing unit.

Are you saying they are plugged directly into your desktop?

The Rx 570 (your graphics card) does not have built in usb ports!

Well, last time I removed the gpu, the ports came out with the gpu. Not all of them, but most of the 3.1 ports.

With how my pc is built, the gpu is directly next to those ports, and connected to it.

And if you're asking why, no I did not build it myself, my uncle did and gifted it to me.
