Hello,
I have just finished building my first computer and everything in the case seems to be running fine (case fans going, cpu fan, video card fan, LEDs and disc drive etc.), however, my monitor keeps saying "No Signal".
Can anyone suggest what might be wrong with it?
Thank you

And the components are;

MSI 970 Gaming Motherboard
AMD FX 6300 (AM3+ socket)
Sapphire Radeon R7 260x
Corsair CX600M
G.Skill Ares F3 DDR3
WD Green 1TB HDD
Kingston SSDNow V300 120GB SSD

well id say its a dead GPU. but. that doesnt sound right.. ususally when a monitor shows "No Signal" it means its not even connected to anything. aka the wire isnt pushed in all the way / the wire is dead

try changing the wire? maybe using the VGA/ HDMI port if there is one...see if that works.

I've tried using VGA, that didn't work either, and there isn't a HDMI port on the gpu

ok uhhh. take out your GPU. plug the connection cord into your onboard. and then plug it into your monitor. if there is STILL no signal. then there is a problem with your monitors in connections.
