I recently installed a new motherboard and CPU in my computer and since installing, I do not get a display. I've gone through the checklist and haven't been able to identify the problem. My 8-pin connector is plugged in and everything should be good to go, but I don't get a display whenever I boot.

On power up, the fans spins and everything lights up, but I can't get a display. I've tried the integrated graphics, I've tried through my vid card and still nothing. Any one have any more suggestions before I attempt a RMA?

When you power up, do you hear a POST 'BEEP", if so then the PC sounds like it's booting, just a display issue. On the other hand if there's no beeps, it may not be POSTING properly, which means hardware misconfiguration of some sort. Make sure it's bare bones. If you are sure the monitor works ok and no display off either on-board or video card, I'd have to say hmm...perhaps the RAM may not be working properly with the new system? Or the hardware is still not configured right, mismatch ram, loose video card, etc. Or maybe a problem with the motherboard. Anyone else have any ideas?

Unfortunately my mobo doesn't have a speaker so I'm not able to hear a POST Beep or even an error beep. I have the ASUS MAXIMUS VI EXTREME and it comes with a LED with codes to trouble shoot, but the LED reads "00" meaning no error. I picked up a new PSU today to see if my old PSU wasn't doing the job well anymore so I'm going to attempt to that, otherwise I'm just going to RMA the mobo back to NewEgg and receive a replacement. As for the monitors and GPU, they worked perfectly fine with no issue on the old computer. The GPU is barely 5-mo old, 780Ti with absolutely no dust or visible damage to it at all. The thing I wasn't sure onwas if my Kingston Hyper X DDR3 1600 ram is compatible with this new MOBO, but the mobo has a switch to change its compatibility to the RAM, to which I don't have any LED feed back, meaning that the RAM is okay. I'm entirely lost.
