Does anyone know why all i am seeing is a black screen is.

what i have inside my computer

Msi 770 twinfrozer 2Gb oc card (upgraded from 7770 - the reason for the upgrade)

Asus M5A99x Evo R2.0

Amd fx 8350 (No overclock)

16 Gb G.Skill 1866 memory sniper edition (Upgraded from 8)

700 Watt OCZ ModXtream powersupply

2 TB Western Digital green

1 TB external which is currently internal( I have had this like this for a while)

Cooler Master V8 heat sink (dynex thermal paste)


I have a few guesses as to what it could be

1. the Mobo & Cpu because when i when to remove the heat sink from the case so i could install the ram and gpu the cpu came out with it while the socket was locked . ( This scared me when it happened so that is why i think it's this over other things.)

2. Insufficient or low quality power supply

3. Bad Dimms of ram

or finally 4. i have miss wired something

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The reason i upgraded from the 7770 to the 770 was the performance increase and stable driver . With the 7770 i had huge problems like when i tried to load a video on youtube in most greko based web browsers my screens would "spaz out" . What i mean by spaz out is the screen would have black lines going though it and large lines of what ever colors were dominate typically (black or white). Applications affected included but not limited to ( steam , Opera, Palemoon, Firefox, Lunescape (Greko mode))

Thanks for the help i appreciate it.
