So I upgraded my PC and as the title says the mother board works fine. But I do not get any signal to my monitor or usb devices. I changed my psu as I thought it was that I've used my old CPU as I thought the new one was dead but no luck used each ram separately in each slot nothing. I get a one beep once for post but haven't got it again. If anyone can fix it I'll PayPal you a tenner. Also checked the check list.

AMD 8350
Asus strix gtx 970
Corsair 650w
Asus m5a97
8gb ram

If your USB devices are not working, that's either a power issue or a motherboard issue. The 8350 is also picky as to what motherboard it works well on, the one you got is not one of those. Look for a 990FX based motherboard. Test the video card in another system to rule that out as an issue.

do you have power connected to your video card? Is the 12V aux power connected to the motherboard? have you tried reseating your video card? did you use the motherboard standoffs? I would suggest reseating your RAM but it sounds like you already tried that.

thanks for the reply I'll have a look at the motherboards howler as stated in my question I swapped but to me old processor also I managed to get it to work once and when instal,info the drivers for the gtx it crashed and now this has happened the psu seems to be fine unfortunately I can't test it in another system. Returning it will be my last resort as it will be very hard to do.
