Hi all.
I recently built a computer with a following specs
Mobo: ASUS Z97-A
CPU: i5-4690K
Cooler: stock CPU cooler
RAM: 2x Corsair Vengeance 4GB (8GB total)
Storage: Samsung EVO 250GB
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 3TB
GPU: Sapphire Radeon R9 290X 4GB GDDR5
PSU: Corsair RM 850
Case: CM Storm Stryker
After I assembled all the components, it would show 'no signal' on my monitor. So I tried a different monitor, same deal. Tried linking it through HDMI to my TV, still no signal. I've first connected everything to my GPU (monitor to GPU, tv to GPU, other monitor to GPU) then I also tried connecting everything to the motherboard (monitor to mobo, tv to mobo, other monitor to mobo).
All these settings gave 'no signal'.
Then I started reading all these posts on this forum and countless of other forums and nothing has helped me so far. I have tried the jumpers, pulling out the battery and waiting 15sec before putting it back in, making sure the mobo is in no contact with the case and all.
This has been going on for two days now so I decided to ask if my case is any different.
So I have stripped it down to the bare mobo, including only: CPU + stock cooler, 2x Corsair RAM sticks, 24-pin ATX for mobo, 8-pin ATX for CPU.
When I start the system like this, the CPU fan will spin briefly (as if just starting up), then its led will turn red, then GPU led will turn red(no graphics card so I assume this is normal), and then DRAM_led will turn red(with the 2 ram sticks in positions 1 and 3 starting from the right side). This will take about 2 seconds, then the fan will stop spinning (as if the system is shut down) and then it will automatically turn itself back on, repeating the cycle of on and off. During this, my Corsair RM850 PSU will make a single 'click' each time the CPU_led turns red, so basically every time it shuts itself down and turns itself on, the PSU will make a single click.
Then I unplugged the 8-pin ATX for the CPU (I didn't know at the time I was randomly doing something) and turned out that all leds were green, and the CPU fan kept spinning as if it was booting like a regular system. But this would still show as 'no signal'.
I personally think the mobo and/or graphics card is malfunctioning, but I had just purchased these a couple days ago and they were freshly delivered to me so I'm not entirely too sure on that.
Does anyone have any kind of idea or anything? I'm truly clueless.
Thanks in advance.
