Hey everyone,

This build has been working fine for the last 2 months, but after removing a wireless network card (didn't need it anymore) nothing will display but the computer is clearly on (LEDs, fans, hard drive, CPU fan all are going).

When I first completed the build I had the same problem, and I found the only solution to be to using a DVI cable plugged in to an old Samsung monitor, and then once Windows started switching to my hdmi and new AOC monitor. I tried this again but nothing is displaying on either monitor.

Specs:
CPU: FX-8320 Eight-Core 3.5GHz
Motherboard: ASUS M5A97 R2.0
RAM: 2x AMD 4GB 1333MHz
PSU: Ultra LSP Series V2 750-Watt
Graphics: XFX Radeon R7 260X
Case: NZXT Phantom 410

Any help would be great!

You may have knocked loose a connector.
Disconnect and reattach video cables tightly to the R7 260X.
If it doesnt work, connect cables to the motherboard and run in safe mode to reinstall drivers.

The GPU turns off while everything else runs?
Is your model supported with a zero-speed fan system?

I'm not sure to be honest, but I don't think it is

Your GPU may be defective.
Test it in another computer (that has NVidia drivers)
