I recently purchased and built a new computer. I installed all the parts and it booted up perfectly. Installed my os and updated the graphics card and bios. I screwed in the side panel and moved it to my desk. Now when it boots up the fans and motherboard all seem to function perfectly but the display will not show anything. I have tried all the basic fixes and nothing.

Parts
- Corsair 500r case
- Asus Maximus 4 hero
- Gtx 770
- Corsair RM650
- Intel I5 4670
-G.SKILL Ripjaw 8gb
- Seagate 240gb ssd

Have you tried resetting your motherboard's bios or CMOS? Have you taken the GPU out and put it back in? Have you tried a different PCI-E slot?

Yes I have tried using onboard graphics as well as reseating the graphics card and using the other slot. I have reset CMOS and checked all of my connections....Sorry for the poor formatting I'm on my phone.

That is okay. If you have used your onboard graphics as well, then something may be wrong with the motherboard itself or your graphics drivers. Is there any way you can get into the computer via Safe Mode?

No unfortunately I cannot get anything to show but a connection error. It was perfectly fine 5 minutes prior. I can't find a reason that anything should be wrong let alone motherboard failure

I was going to mention mobo failure. So when you turn on the computer, you see nothing? Not even the black and white text prior to boot?

Exactly just a connection error.

4 agonizing hours later I figured it out. The first DIMM slot on the motherboard won't register. That's why testing each stick separately didn't matter. Why it caused those issues I do not know. Thank you for your help.
