This is my first computer build I have done. After tutorial after tutorial and constant researching of the manual, I'm stumped.
The computer has not been able to send a signal to my monitor, and I do not know if everything is hooked up correctly or not, as the speaker cable is not beeping. (Maybe I'm not putting in the right place)
When I turn the computer on, all the fans start blowing from the Video-card, CPU, Case, and wherever else there is one. (I'm not smart with this). Although when I connect a video cable(HDMI ,VGA, DVI , I tried all of them) from my graphics card to the monitor, it blatantly says "No signal", and the screen switches to black. Anyways, here are the specs of my Computer.
CPU : AMD FX 6300
CPU Heatsink Fan : Stock
Graphics card : EVGA GeForce GTX760 w/EVGA ACX Cooler 2GB GDDR5 256bit, Dual-Link DVI-I, DVI-D, HDMI,DP, SLI Ready Graphics Card (02G-P4-2763-KR) Graphics Cards 02G-P
Case :Rosewill R5 Black Gaming ATX Mid Tower Case
HardDrive : WD Blue 1 TB Desktop Hard Drive: 3.5 Inch, 7200 RPM, SATA 6 Gb/s, 64 MB Cache - WD10EZEX
RAM : Kingston KHX16C9B1RK2/8X HyperX Red 8GB (4GB 512M x 64-Bit x 2 pcs.) DDR3-1600 CL9 240-Pin DIMM Kit
MotherBoard : MSI Computer Corp. Socket AM3+ AMD 970 DDR3 SATA3 and USB 3.0 A&GbE ATX Motherboard 970A-G43
PSU : Seasonic S12ll Bronze 620w
I have yet to install the OS since I can't even get the computer to get on to the monitor.
Things I have Done
1. Reinstall everything to my knowledge
2. Put enough force on installing RAM and Graphics card
3. Made sure to not bend the bottom of the CPU.
4. Yes, the fan has thermal paste.
5. Yes, The 4 pin power cable is connected in that area next to the CPU.
6. I have the right cables plugged in the Graphics card.
7. Yes, that big power cable is plugged into the MB.
8. The MB is correctly in the case.
9. The PSU is plugged in and switched on (The computer itself can turn on).
10. I have tried the HDMI, VGA, and DVI cables to hook up to monitor. No success with any.
11. Think I put the Speaker thing in the right place (JFP2 area)
12. The motherboard does not have on board graphics.
Here's a link to a PDF of the motherboard manual : http://www.microcenter.com/images/shared/products/customercare/298604_970A-G43_manual.pdf
If you need any other details or have questions, just ask and I'll try to answer it to the best of my knowledge. Thanks!
